FAQs
Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?
Yes, the Controlplate outsole is designed to provide traction on both firm ground and artificial grass surfaces.
Do I need to condition the synthetic material?
No, the synthetic upper does not require leather conditioning; simply wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Can I remove the fold-over tongue?
The tongue is integrated into the boot construction and is not designed to be detached.
How do these boots fit compared to standard sneakers?
They are designed for a performance fit. Most players find them true to size, but the structure is narrower than a casual sneaker for better control.
What is the primary benefit of the Strikescale fins?
The fins increase friction between the boot and the ball, allowing for greater control and precision when striking the ball.
Troubleshooting
Tongue shifting during play
Ensure the lace tension is consistent across the midfoot to hold the tongue securely in place.
Material stiffness out of the box
Wear the boots during light training sessions to allow the synthetic upper to adapt and soften to your foot shape.
Stubborn grass stains or mud
Gently scrub with a soft brush and warm soapy water immediately after the match to prevent discoloration.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your boots, ensure you are wearing the correct size to prevent slipping inside the shoe. When using the fold-over tongue, ensure it is laid flat against the laces to provide the cleanest striking surface possible. For cleaning, remove loose mud after use with a soft-bristled brush. Wipe down the synthetic upper with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging the boots in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the synthetic materials. Always air-dry the boots naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to maintain the shape and integrity of the synthetic upper.
