FAQs

What does 'FG' stand for on these boots?

FG stands for Firm Ground. This indicates the outsole is designed for optimal performance on natural grass pitches that are dry or slightly wet.

Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?

The FG outsole can often be used on modern, well-maintained artificial grass surfaces, but it is primarily designed for natural grass. For extensive use on artificial turf, consider boots specifically made for that surface.

How do I clean the FitKnit upper?

Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently wipe the FitKnit upper. Avoid soaking the material or using harsh chemicals.

What is the benefit of HYPER BURST PRO™ cushioning?

HYPER BURST PRO™ offers an extremely lightweight and responsive cushioning that provides excellent energy return, enhancing comfort and performance during play.

Can I machine wash these football boots?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash these football boots as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and structural integrity of the boot.

How do the internal silicon elements help?

The internal silicon elements are designed to provide a secure grip on the inside of the boot, preventing the foot from slipping, especially during quick movements and changes of direction.

What is the 'Sunset Elite Pack' design inspiration?

The design is inspired by California's iconic coastline, featuring colors like coral fire and electric blue, capturing the essence of the region.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure the laces are loosened before putting on the boots. Adjust lacing to your comfort level. The FitKnit upper is designed to mold to your foot over time; consider wearing them for shorter periods initially.

Traction feels insufficient on the pitch

Confirm you are using the boots on the intended firm ground surface. Clean any mud or debris from the outsole studs. If the surface is excessively wet or soft, these boots may not provide optimal grip.

Ball control feels off

Ensure the boots are clean, particularly the P.S.C. moulding areas. Check for any debris that might be affecting the texture. Consistent practice with the new boots will also improve feel.

Discomfort after initial wear

Break-in period is normal for performance footwear. Wear them for training sessions before a full match. If persistent discomfort occurs, check lacing and ensure the correct size has been selected.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear football boots. Ensure you have selected the correct size for a proper fit. The lace-up closure allows for adjustment to your preference.

Compatibility: The FG (Firm Ground) outsole is designed for use on natural grass pitches that are dry or slightly wet, and well-maintained artificial grass surfaces. Avoid using these boots on hard, muddy, or excessively worn surfaces, as this can damage the studs and reduce performance.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt and mud with a soft brush or a damp cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Stuff the boots with newspaper to absorb moisture and help them retain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
  3. Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a breathable boot bag, to maintain their condition.
