adidas Predator League Laceless FG MG - Black - UK 8.5

These boots feature an FG/MG soleplate, making them suitable for use on both firm natural grass pitches and artificial turf (multi-ground) surfaces.

After each use, wipe off dirt and mud with a damp cloth or soft brush. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying.

The adidas Primeknit collar is designed for a snug, adaptive fit. Gently pull the collar open and slide your foot in. A shoehorn can be helpful initially if needed, but it will become easier with use.

This is normal for new performance boots. Wear them during light activities or short training sessions to allow the HybridFeel upper to mold to your foot. The Primeknit collar will also adapt over time.

Ensure the Strikescale elements and the rest of the upper are clean and free from mud or debris, as this can hinder their effectiveness. Also, check that your football is not excessively wet or slick.

Regularly clean the ControlPlate 2.0 soleplate to ensure no mud or grass clogs the studs, which can reduce traction. Confirm you are playing on the recommended FG/MG surfaces.

Gently stretch the collar before attempting to put on the boots. Use a shoehorn to help guide your foot in. Over time, the Primeknit material will adapt and become easier to wear while maintaining its supportive fit.
