FAQs
What is the primary advantage of the TechLeather upper?
The TechLeather upper provides a soft, natural touch on the ball, enhancing control and dribbling accuracy, while also offering consistent performance in various weather conditions.
Can these boots be used on artificial grass?
No, these boots are designed with an SG Pro soleplate specifically for soft, wet natural grass pitches. Using them on artificial grass is not recommended as it can damage the studs and soleplate, and compromise traction.
How does the 360Wrap system benefit my play?
The 360Wrap system extends coverage around the boot, providing an adaptable fit that contours to your foot. This enhances creativity and confidence in possession by bringing you closer to the ball.
Are replacement studs included?
No, durable, adjustable metal studs are part of the design, but spare studs and stud keys are sold separately.
What is the benefit of the split soleplate design?
The Maestro360 split soleplate offers optimized torsional flex and responsiveness, allowing for effortless multidirectional traction and supporting quick changes in direction and explosive movements.
What does 'Player Edition' signify?
'Player Edition' indicates that the boots are manufactured to a high standard, reflecting the performance requirements and design philosophy favored by professional athletes who endorse the Tiempo Maestro range.
How do I maintain the TechLeather material?
Clean with a soft brush or damp cloth after use and allow to air dry naturally. Avoid direct heat sources. For best results, follow care instructions specific to synthetic leather materials.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Allow for a break-in period of 1-2 wears on the training ground. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly without overtightening. Consider using thinner socks if appropriate for the fit.
Traction is poor on the pitch
Confirm you are playing on a soft, wet ground surface. Check that all studs are securely in place and are the correct type for SG pitches. Clean any mud buildup from the soleplate and studs.
Materials feel stiff after cleaning
Ensure the boots were air-dried naturally and not exposed to direct heat. Applying a suitable leather conditioner (if applicable to TechLeather) after drying can help restore suppleness.
Studs are difficult to remove or insert
Use the correct stud key and apply steady pressure. Ensure there is no debris blocking the stud housing. If persistent, consult a specialist retailer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Stud Replacement: If replacing studs, ensure you use the correct size and type for SG (Soft Ground) applications. Use a stud key (sold separately) to tighten or loosen studs.
Initial Wear: While designed for a close fit, some players may benefit from a short break-in period to fully mold the boots to their feet.
Compatibility:
Surface: Primarily designed for soft, wet, natural grass pitches. The SG Pro soleplate may not provide optimal traction or could wear down quickly on firm or artificial surfaces.
Care:
Cleaning: After each use, remove excess mud and dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight) as this can damage the materials.
Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, to maintain their shape and material integrity.
