FAQs
What age group are these boots for?
These boots are designed for children, specifically within the 'kids' age group.
Can these boots be used on artificial grass?
Yes, they are suitable for firm ground (FG) surfaces, which often include newer types of artificial grass pitches. However, they are not specifically designed for older, harder artificial turf or soft ground.
How do I clean the synthetic upper?
Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or soaking the boots in water.
What is the main advantage of the POWERSPINE technology?
POWERSPINE technology provides essential midfoot stability, helping young players maintain balance and transfer power more effectively during play.
Are these boots available in adult sizes?
This specific product listing and description are for children's sizes. Please check other product variations for adult sizing.
What does 'FG' stand for on football boots?
'FG' stands for Firm Ground. These boots are intended for use on pitches that are typically dry and well-maintained, offering optimal traction on natural grass or artificial turf.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-lace, ensuring the floating tongue is correctly positioned. Try wearing thinner socks if the issue persists.
Traction feels insufficient on grass
Ensure the boots are clean and free of mud, which can clog the studs. Verify that the playing surface is indeed firm ground; these boots are not designed for wet or soft conditions.
Difficulty with the floating tongue
Adjust the lacing system to accommodate the floating tongue. Some players find it helpful to pull the tongue forward before tightening the laces.
Synthetic upper feels stiff
Wear the boots for short periods initially to break them in. Playing in them will naturally soften the synthetic material over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Ensure the boots are the correct size before lacing.
- Lace the boots securely using the provided laces, ensuring the floating tongue remains centered for optimal support.
Compatibility:
- These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces, including natural grass and some modern artificial turf pitches.
- They are not recommended for soft ground (SG) or older, harder artificial surfaces, as this can affect performance and potentially damage the studs.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Stuff boots with newspaper to absorb moisture and help them retain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), which can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, to protect them from dust and damage.
