FAQs
Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?
These are Firm Ground (FG) boots, which are optimized for natural grass. Use on high-abrasion artificial surfaces may cause premature wear.
What is the Powerspine technology?
Powerspine is a structural feature that stabilizes the foot and reduces deformation upon impact, ensuring more efficient energy transfer when kicking the ball.
How do I clean the rubber grip elements?
Gently clean them with a soft brush and a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners as they can degrade the rubber material.
Are these boots true to size?
The Predator Elite series generally fits true to size for most adults, though personal preference for tightness may vary.
Can I use these in the rain?
You can use them in light rain on natural grass, but be aware that they are designed for firm ground and may lose traction if the pitch becomes extremely muddy.
Troubleshooting
Accumulation of dirt in the rubber grip elements
Use a soft brush and mild soap to gently scrub the upper, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Slippage on the pitch
Verify that you are playing on firm, dry natural grass; FG boots are not designed for muddy or soft ground conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These boots are intended exclusively for use on firm, natural grass surfaces. Using them on artificial grass or hard concrete will lead to premature wear of the fang studs.
Care Instructions:
- After each session, remove mud and grass clippings using a soft-bristled brush.
- Wipe the upper with a damp cloth to keep the Nanostrike+ grip elements free from dirt buildup.
- Always allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the synthetic materials.
- Stuff the boots with newspaper if they get damp inside to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
