FAQs

Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?

No, the adidas F50 Elite x Messi FG boots are specifically designed for `Firm Ground (FG)` pitches, which are natural dry grass surfaces. Using them on artificial grass (AG) may lead to premature wear of the studs and soleplate, and could affect your traction and potentially void the product's lifespan expectations.

How do I choose between the SL and Comfort sockliners?

The `SL` (Speed Lightweight) sockliner is designed for players prioritizing minimal weight and direct ground feel for maximum responsiveness and speed. The `Comfort` sockliner offers additional cushioning and impact absorption, which can be beneficial for longer games, training sessions, or players seeking more underfoot comfort.

What does `HybridTouch` upper mean?

The `HybridTouch` upper is a combination of synthetic suede and foil materials, engineered to provide a soft, haptic feel for enhanced ball control and touch, while also offering structural support and durability for dynamic movements on the field.

Is the wearing off of the soleplate's lacquer a defect?

No, the wearing off of the lacquer finish on the soleplate is a natural and expected occurrence during play due to friction and contact with the ground. It is not considered a defect and does not affect the performance or structural integrity of the boots.

How should I clean these boots?

After each use, gently wipe the boots with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive brushes, or machine washing, as these can damage the materials and overall construction.

What makes these boots a 'Messi edition'?

The 'Messi edition' features an upper tailored to Leo Messi's specific preferences, including distinctive moulded 3-Stripes on the sides and his favored knit burrito tongue, which is designed to offer a slightly wider and more comfortable fit around the midfoot.

Are these boots made with recycled materials?

Yes, these adidas F50 Elite x Messi FG boots are made with at least 20% recycled materials as part of adidas' commitment to reducing waste and promoting more sustainable product manufacturing practices.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you've selected the appropriate sockliner; the Comfort sockliner might offer more cushioning. Also, loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure across your foot. The burrito tongue allows for a slightly wider fit, but some break-in time may be needed for optimal comfort.

Loss of traction on the pitch.

These boots are designed for firm ground. Verify the pitch conditions are dry and natural grass. If the issue persists, inspect the `Sprintframe 360` studs for excessive wear or embedded debris that might reduce grip. Clean the soleplate thoroughly.

Lacquer on the soleplate is wearing off.

This is a normal cosmetic occurrence with regular play and does not affect the performance, grip, or durability of the boots. Continue to use and care for them as usual; this is not a product defect.

Cons

  • Lacquer finish on the soleplate may wear off aesthetically during play.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Upon receiving your F50 Elite x Messi boots, first choose between the `SL` (Speed Lightweight) or `Comfort` sockliner based on your preference for pure speed or cushioning, and insert it. Lace the boots securely, ensuring a snug but comfortable fit using the lace closure system. The knit burrito tongue is designed to provide a slightly wider fit for added comfort.

Compatibility

These boots are specifically designed for `Firm Ground (FG)` pitches, which typically include natural dry grass surfaces. They are not recommended for use on artificial turf (AG) or soft ground (SG) pitches, as this can affect performance and durability of the soleplate and studs.

Care

To maintain your boots, gently wipe them clean with a damp cloth after each use to remove dirt and debris. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the materials. Please note, the lacquer finish on the bottom of the soleplate may wear off during play; this is a normal cosmetic occurrence and will not impact the boot's performance.
