FAQs

What does 'FG/AG' mean for these boots?

'FG/AG' signifies that these football boots are designed for use on both Firm Ground (natural grass) and Artificial Ground (synthetic turf) pitches.

Are these boots suitable for all adult foot sizes?

These boots are designed for adult feet and are available in various UK sizes. Please check the available size options to find your fit.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Gently wipe the leather with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner. Always allow the boots to air dry naturally.

What is the significance of the Pantera Negra edition?

The Pantera Negra edition is a special release celebrating the legendary Portuguese footballer Eusebio, nicknamed 'O Rei' (The King) and 'Pantera Negra' (Black Panther). It pays homage to his legacy and the original PUMA King boot created for him.

Will the chrome on the soleplate affect performance?

No, the chrome finish is purely aesthetic and is expected to wear off during play. It does not impact the grip, stability, or overall performance of the boot.

What is the OrthoLite sockliner for?

The OrthoLite sockliner provides advanced cushioning, breathability, and moisture management, enhancing comfort and support during play.

Are the materials sustainable?

Yes, the upper of these boots is made with at least 20% recycled content.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable

Wear the boots for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and mold to your foot. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase if needed.

Traction is inconsistent on certain surfaces

Ensure the soleplate is clean and free of debris. These boots are optimized for FG/AG surfaces; performance may vary on unsuited grounds.

Chrome finish on soleplate appears worn

This is a normal cosmetic effect of play and does not impact the boot's performance or structural integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These boots are designed for use on Firm Ground (FG) and Artificial Ground (AG) surfaces. Ensure you are using them on the appropriate pitch type to maximize performance and durability.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow 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 leather and adhesives.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, to maintain their shape and condition.
  4. Leather Care: For best results, use a leather conditioner periodically to keep the upper supple and prevent cracking.
