Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These football boots are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they fit snugly by lacing them up appropriately. The fit should be secure but not uncomfortably tight, allowing for toe movement.
Compatibility:
Primarily designed for use on firm ground (FG) natural grass pitches and newer artificial grass surfaces. They may not offer optimal traction or comfort on very hard, muddy, or waterlogged pitches.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the boots.
- Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, hairdryers) as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag, to maintain their shape and material integrity.
