Troubleshooting
The lacquer finish on the soleplate is wearing off.
This is a normal cosmetic occurrence and does not affect the performance or integrity of the boots. Continue to use and care for them as usual.
Boots feel uncomfortable or tight during initial wear.
Allow for a break-in period. Wear the boots during lighter training sessions to allow the HybridTouch upper and Primeknit collar to adapt to your foot shape. Ensure you have the correct size.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Getting started with your Predator Elite FG boots is straightforward:
- Lace Up: Utilize the traditional lace closure to achieve a secure and customized fit. Ensure laces are tied firmly but not too tightly to avoid discomfort.
- Break-in Period: Like most high-performance football boots, these may require a short break-in period. Wear them for light training sessions before competitive matches to allow the materials to mold to your feet.
Compatibility
- Pitch Type: These boots are designed exclusively for firm ground (FG) pitches, which are natural grass fields that are dry and well-maintained. Using them on artificial grass (AG), soft ground (SG), or indoor surfaces is not recommended as it can damage the boots and compromise performance.
- Fit: The boots feature a regular fit, suitable for a wide range of foot shapes.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your boots:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove loose dirt and mud with a soft brush or damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and water solution.
- Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can cause the material to crack or stiffen.
- Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place, ideally with boot trees or crumpled newspaper inside to maintain their shape.
- Lacquer Wear: Be aware that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the soleplate may wear off during play. This is a normal cosmetic change and does not affect the performance or durability of the product.
