FAQs
Are these boots suitable for natural grass pitches?
No, these boots are specifically designed for artificial turf (astro turf). Using them on natural grass may lead to reduced performance and potential damage to the soleplate.
How long does the break-in period typically last?
The break-in period can vary for each individual. Generally, it takes a few training sessions or matches for the boots to mold to your feet and become fully comfortable.
What is the main benefit of POWERSPINE technology?
POWERSPINE technology is designed to enhance shot power and stability, providing a more controlled and forceful strike when shooting the ball.
Can I wash these boots in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these boots. Cleaning with a damp cloth or soft brush is the preferred method to maintain the integrity of the materials.
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
The fit is described as regular. While the lace closure allows for some adjustment, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them snug. Trying them on or checking reviews for fit feedback is advised.
What is the intended user for these boots?
These boots are intended for adult male football players who play regularly on artificial turf pitches and require enhanced ball control and agility.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable.
This is common during the break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase duration. Ensure laces are adjusted for a secure but not overly tight fit. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase if needed.
Traction feels insufficient on the pitch.
Ensure the artificial turf pitch is clean and free of debris. The boot's soleplate is designed for synthetic surfaces; performance may vary based on the specific turf condition and type.
Mud or debris is difficult to remove.
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to clean the boots after use. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by thorough rinsing with a damp cloth. Ensure they are dried properly afterwards.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Unbox your boots and inspect for any damage.
Lace them up using the provided closure system, ensuring a snug but comfortable fit. It is recommended to initially lace them slightly looser to begin the break-in process.
Compatibility:
These boots are specifically designed for artificial turf (astro turf) pitches. The rubber outsole with specialized stud patterns offers optimal performance on synthetic grass.
They are not recommended for use on hard surfaces, indoor courts, or natural grass, as this can reduce performance and potentially damage the soleplate.
Care:
Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or a dry cloth. For tougher grime, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking the boots in water.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a breathable bag, away from direct sunlight.
