FAQs

What type of playing surface are these boots suitable for?

These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces, which are natural grass pitches.

What are the two different sockliners for?

The F50 Elite x Messi boots come with two interchangeable sockliners: the 'SL' (SuperLight) for a lighter, more direct feel optimized for speed, and the 'Comfort' sockliner for additional cushioning and impact absorption during play.

Will the colored bottom of the boot wear off?

Yes, the lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot (soleplate) is designed to wear off during play. This is a normal cosmetic occurrence and does not affect the boot's performance or durability.

Are these boots suitable for players with wider feet?

The Messi edition features a knit burrito tongue which allows for a slightly wider fit compared to some other narrow-fitting speed boots, making them more accommodating.

How heavy are these football boots?

The adidas F50 Elite x Messi FG boots weigh approximately 190g, making them very lightweight for explosive speed.

What is the 'HybridTouch' upper made of?

The HybridTouch upper is made from a synthetic suede and foil material, designed to provide a soft feel and haptic texturing for enhanced ball control.

Are these boots made with recycled materials?

Yes, these boots are made with at least 20% recycled materials as part of adidas' commitment to sustainability.

Troubleshooting

The lacquer finish on the sole is wearing off.

This is a normal characteristic of the boot's design. The lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot may wear off during play but will not affect the performance, durability, or structural integrity of the product. It is purely cosmetic.

My feet feel uncomfortable or I'm experiencing pressure points.

Ensure you have chosen the correct size. Try swapping the included sockliners; the 'Comfort' sockliner offers more cushioning than the 'SL' sockliner. Allow for a short break-in period, as synthetic uppers may need a few sessions to mold to your foot shape.

I'm not getting enough grip on the pitch.

These boots are designed specifically for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces. Ensure you are playing on natural grass pitches. Performance may be compromised on artificial turf, hard ground, or very wet/slippery conditions.

Pros and Cons

Cons

  • Lacquer Wear: The lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot may wear off during play, which is cosmetic and does not affect performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Lace Closure: Ensure laces are securely tied for a snug, supportive fit. Adjust tightness to your comfort preference.
  2. Choose Your Sockliner: Before your first use, decide which sockliner best suits your needs. Insert the SL sockliner for a lighter, faster feel, or the Comfort sockliner for increased cushioning and impact absorption. You can easily swap them as needed.

Compatibility

  • Firm Ground (FG) Surfaces: These boots are specifically designed for use on firm, natural grass pitches. Using them on artificial turf (AG), hard ground (HG), or indoor surfaces may compromise performance, durability, and may void any warranty.
  • Adult Sizing: Available in adult sizes.

Care

  1. Cleaning After Use: After each use, remove loose dirt and mud using a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Air Dry: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
  3. Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using boot trees to help maintain their shape.
  4. Lacquer Finish: Be aware that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot may wear off during play. This is normal and purely cosmetic; it will not affect the performance or durability of the product.
