FAQs
Are these boots suitable for natural grass?
No, these boots are specifically designed for artificial grass (AG) and their outsole configuration is not optimized for natural grass.
How do I adjust the fold-over tongue?
The fold-over tongue can be secured by tucking it under the laces after you have laced the boots to your preferred tightness.
What is the primary benefit of POWERSPINE technology?
POWERSPINE technology is designed to improve kicking power and accuracy by enhancing energy transfer from the foot to the ball.
How should I clean my artificial ground boots?
Wipe them with a damp cloth and a soft brush to remove dirt. Avoid harsh cleaners and allow them to air dry away from heat.
What does 'NANOSTRIKE upper' mean?
The NANOSTRIKE upper is a synthetic and textile material blend engineered to offer a balance of durability, touch, and control.
Can I use these boots in wet conditions on artificial turf?
Yes, the outsole is designed for traction on artificial grass, which typically performs well in various weather conditions. However, excessive water might still affect grip.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight after lacing.
Loosen the laces slightly, paying attention to how the fold-over tongue affects the fit. Adjust lacing pattern to distribute pressure more evenly.
Lack of traction on the pitch.
Ensure the boots are being used on the intended artificial grass surface. Clean any debris from the outsole studs, as accumulated material can reduce grip.
Discomfort during play.
Allow a break-in period. If discomfort persists, experiment with different lacing techniques or consider using insoles for added cushioning or support.
Material feels stiff.
Synthetic materials may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase duration.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These boots are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they are laced securely, utilizing the fold-over tongue as desired for a comfortable and secure fit. It is recommended to lace them to your personal preference for optimal lockdown.
Compatibility: These boots are specifically designed for artificial grass (AG) surfaces. They are not recommended for use on firm ground (FG), hard ground (HG), or natural grass pitches, as the outsole configuration may not provide adequate traction or could lead to premature wear on such surfaces.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt and mud using a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Ensure they are not compressed under heavy items.
