FAQs
Are these boots suitable for wingers or midfielders?
Yes, the design with a focus on striking and agility makes them suitable for players in various positions, including wingers and midfielders who require speed and precise ball control.
How do I clean the synthetic upper?
Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth. Always air dry.
Can I use these boots on artificial grass pitches?
Yes, these boots are designed for Multi Ground (MG) surfaces, which includes many types of artificial grass. However, for exclusively 3G or very specific artificial turf, specialized boots might offer optimal performance.
What is the main benefit of the fold-over tongue?
The fold-over tongue provides a cleaner, larger surface area for striking the ball, which can lead to improved accuracy and power in shots and passes.
How does POWERSPINE technology help my game?
POWERSPINE technology is integrated into the forefoot to add rigidity, helping to transfer more energy into the ball for increased shot power and stability.
What size should I order if I'm unsure?
These boots feature a regular fit. It is recommended to order your usual football boot size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the size up for a slightly roomier fit, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks.
What is the difference between FG and MG boots?
FG (Firm Ground) boots are best for natural grass pitches. MG (Multi Ground) boots, like these, are designed to offer versatile performance on both natural grass and artificial surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Wear the boots around the house for short periods to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. Ensure laces are not over-tightened.
Traction feels insufficient on certain surfaces
Confirm the boots are being used on intended FG/MG surfaces. Performance may vary on very dry, hard, or specific types of artificial turf. Clean the studs/cleats regularly.
Tongue feels awkward during play
Experiment with how you secure the fold-over tongue using the laces. Some players find tucking it under the laces works best; others prefer to let it lie flat.
Synthetic upper feels stiff
The synthetic material will soften with use. Gentle stretching or wearing them for increasing durations will help improve flexibility.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup:
These boots are designed for immediate use. Ensure they fit snugly but comfortably before playing. Lace them up securely, adjusting the tightness to your preference.
Compatibility:
- Surfaces: Primarily designed for Firm Ground (FG) and Multi Ground (MG). This includes natural grass pitches and some artificial grass surfaces. Avoid use on very hard or uneven surfaces to prevent damage to the outsole and potential injury.
- Fit: Regular fit, suitable for most foot types. Consider your usual football boot sizing.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a dry brush or soft cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Do not machine wash.
- Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources (like radiators or hairdryers) as this can damage the materials. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and retain shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Using a boot bag can help protect them.
