FAQs

Can I use these boots on artificial grass?

These are FG (Firm Ground) boots designed for natural grass. Using them on artificial surfaces may lead to premature wear and increased risk of injury due to the specific stud length.

How do I care for the leather upper?

Clean them with a damp cloth after every use and avoid extreme heat during the drying process. Applying a leather food can keep the material soft and water-resistant.

What does the foldover tongue do?

Beyond its heritage aesthetic, it provides a cleaner striking surface over the lacing system, which helps in preventing lace interference when striking the ball.

Are these boots true to size?

They generally fit true to standard Nike sizing; however, since they are leather, they may stretch slightly to accommodate the shape of your foot over time.

What is the primary material of the boot?

The upper is constructed from premium leather, chosen for its durability and natural touch properties.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable

Leather requires a break-in period. Wear them for 20-30 minute sessions initially or use a specialized leather softener to speed up the process.

Accumulation of mud in studs

Use a blunt plastic tool or a stiff-bristled brush to clear the gaps between the conical studs after every game to maintain traction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent ball touch due to soft leather upper
  • Secure fit provided by high-quality heel padding
  • Versatile traction suitable for various firm ground maneuvers
  • Classic, clean design with functional foldover tongue

Cons

  • Not intended for use on soft, muddy, or artificial turf surfaces
  • Heavier than contemporary 'speed' boots
  • Leather requires more maintenance to prevent hardening

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal longevity, break in your boots gradually by wearing them for short training sessions before full match play. The FG soleplate is specifically designed for natural grass surfaces that are firm underfoot; using these on concrete or hard artificial turf will accelerate stud wear and may void performance expectations.

Care Instructions:

  1. Remove excess dirt or mud immediately after use using a soft brush.
  2. Wipe the leather with a damp cloth; never submerge the boots in water.
  3. Allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can dry out and crack the leather.
  4. Use leather conditioner periodically to maintain the suppleness of the upper material.
