Puma Ultra 5 Match MxSG Football Boots - Black - UK 8.5

These boots are specifically designed for mixed/soft natural grass surfaces (MxSG). The stud configuration provides optimal traction and propulsion on damp or muddy pitches.

Yes, the MxSG soleplate features conical screw-in studs, which are replaceable. It is highly recommended to regularly check and tighten them, and to replace any lost or damaged studs promptly to maintain performance.

After each use, remove excess mud with a soft brush and wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

Generally, Puma football boots are considered to run true to size. However, individual foot shapes can vary. It is always best to consult a size chart and try them on if possible to ensure the best fit.

GripControl texturing is a specialized coating on the boot's upper that enhances ball contact. This provides superior grip and control over the ball, especially when dribbling at high speeds or making precise passes.

No, these MxSG boots are not recommended for artificial grass pitches. The stud configuration is designed for natural soft ground. Using them on AG can cause premature wear to both the boots and the pitch, and may also affect your performance and the boots' warranty.

The upper of these boots is made with at least 20% recycled materials. This is part of Puma's commitment to reducing environmental impact and contributing to more sustainable product manufacturing practices.

Regularly check all screw-in studs before and after each game/practice. Tighten any loose studs with a stud key. If a stud is lost, replace it promptly with a compatible replacement to maintain optimal traction and balance.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate football socks designed for moisture-wicking and cushioning. The boots may require a short break-in period; wear them for shorter periods initially. If discomfort persists, verify that the boot size is correct, as an improper fit is a common cause of blisters.

Verify that the field conditions are truly 'mixed/soft ground' as intended for these boots; performance will be compromised on harder surfaces. Ensure studs are clean and free from excessive mud, grass, or debris. Check for any significantly worn, damaged, or missing studs that might reduce overall traction and stability.
