FAQs

Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?

No, these are SG-Pro boots designed specifically for soft, natural grass surfaces. Using them on artificial turf may cause premature wear.

How should I clean the Atomknit upper?

Gently wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or washing machines.

Does the boot require a break-in period?

The Atomknit material is designed to feel comfortable from the first wear, though the fit will adapt slightly to your foot shape over the first few sessions.

What does the SG-Pro designation mean?

SG-Pro stands for Soft Ground Pro, indicating the boot has an outsole configuration optimized for traction on wet, muddy grass pitches.

Can I replace the studs?

The Vapor XVII Elite SG-Pro utilizes a fixed or specialized cleat setup; check the specific product packaging for compatibility with replacement studs if applicable to your specific model iteration.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel slippery on artificial turf.

The SG-Pro soleplate is not intended for artificial surfaces. Ensure you are using these boots on appropriate soft natural grass to maintain intended traction.

Difficulty getting feet into the tight collar.

The Flyknit collar is designed for a snug fit. Use a shoehorn to help guide your heel in without overstretching the material.

Mud accumulation around the cleats.

Clean the soleplate after every match using a soft-bristled brush to ensure the rounded chevron design maintains its grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight construction maximizes speed potential.
  • Atomknit material offers a close, adaptive fit.
  • Rounded chevron cleat design supports aggressive changes in direction.
  • Secure lockdown feel from the refined Flyknit collar.

Cons

  • Optimized primarily for soft-ground (SG) surfaces.
  • High-performance materials require consistent care to maintain structural integrity.
  • Minimalist design may provide less impact protection than thicker leather boots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These boots are equipped with an SG-Pro soleplate, which is specifically intended for use on soft, natural grass pitches that are wet or muddy. Using these on artificial grass or hard, baked-earth surfaces may lead to premature wear or reduced performance. To maintain the boots, wipe off excess mud with a damp cloth immediately after use to prevent debris from hardening into the knit fibers. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage the upper materials and bonding adhesives.
