FAQs

What age group are these boots recommended for?

These PUMA FUTURE 9 PLAY FG/AG JR boots are recommended for older kids between 8 and 16 years old.

Can these boots be used on indoor courts?

No, these boots are designed for Firm Ground (FG) and Artificial Grass (AG) outdoor surfaces. They are not suitable for indoor courts.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Lace the boots securely with appropriate football socks. The regular tongue and construction offer comfort, but if you have very wide or narrow feet, they might feel different. Refer to PUMA's sizing chart for accurate measurements.

What does 'FG/AG' mean?

FG/AG stands for Firm Ground / Artificial Grass. It means the stud configuration and soleplate are designed to perform well on both natural grass pitches that are firm and modern artificial turf fields.

Are the sockliners removable?

Yes, the boots come with a lightweight removable sockliner featuring NanoGrip technology, which can be removed or replaced if needed.

How does the recycled material benefit the product?

The upper of the shoe is made with at least 30% recycled materials, reducing environmental impact without compromising on comfort, support, or durability.

What is the primary benefit of the embossed zones?

The targeted embossed zones across the upper are designed to add grip on the ball, enhancing control for dribbling, passing, and shooting.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight after lacing

Loosen the laces, especially around the midfoot, and try relacing them, ensuring an even tension. If discomfort persists, the fit may not be suitable for your foot shape.

Poor grip on the ball

Ensure the embossed zones on the upper are clean and free from mud or debris. Consistent ball contact with these zones will improve grip over time as they break in.

Lack of agility or quick turns

Verify that you are on an appropriate FG/AG surface. The stud design requires adequate traction from the pitch; worn-out or unsuitable surfaces can impede performance.

Discomfort during play

Ensure the removable sockliner is correctly positioned. If the issue persists, consider if the boot size or fit is appropriate. Consult the sizing guide or try a different size.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhances ball control with targeted grip zones.
  • Promotes agility and quick directional changes.
  • Comfortable and supportive fit for extended play.
  • Durable construction suitable for regular use.
  • Made with sustainable recycled materials.

Cons

  • Best suited for FG/AG surfaces; performance may vary on others.
  • Regular fit might not suit extremely wide or narrow feet.
  • Embossed zones require some user adaptation for maximum benefit.
  • Youth-specific sizing may limit options for older players.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the boots are the correct size by trying them on with football socks.
  2. Lace the boots securely using the regular lace-up system for a snug fit.
  3. Insert the removable NanoGrip sockliner if desired for enhanced foot stability.

Compatibility:

  • Surface: These boots are designed for Firm Ground (FG) and Artificial Grass (AG) surfaces. They are not recommended for soft ground, hard ground, or indoor courts.
  • Fit: Designed with a regular to wide fit, suitable for most youth foot shapes.

Care:

  • Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the boots in water.
  • Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a breathable boot bag, to prevent damage and odor buildup.
