FAQs
Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?
These boots are designed for firm ground (FG) natural grass. Using them on abrasive surfaces like artificial grass may cause premature wear.
How do I clean the silicone grip elements?
Gently wipe the upper with a damp microfiber cloth. Do not scrub harshly as this may damage the nano-printed texture.
Is the knit collar removable?
No, the compressive knit collar is an integrated part of the boot's construction to ensure a secure lockdown fit.
Can I replace the sockliner?
Yes, the Ortholite sockliner is removable if you wish to use custom orthotics.
Are these unisex?
Yes, these are designed as unisex football boots suitable for any adult player.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight at the ankle
The compressive collar is designed to be snug for lockdown. Ensure it is pulled fully over the ankle and allow a short break-in period for the knit to adapt to your specific anatomy.
Accumulation of mud in the stud pattern
Use a soft-bristled brush to clear the gaps between the Rim Studs after playing to ensure consistent traction for the next match.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best results, ensure the boots are laced securely to utilize the compressive collar effectively. These boots are specifically compatible with firm ground (FG) natural grass pitches; using them on artificial turf or concrete can lead to premature wear of the stud configuration. To maintain your boots, wipe them down with a damp cloth after each use to remove grass, dirt, and debris. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the nano-printed silicone elements. Allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the upper materials or weaken adhesives.
