FAQs

Can I use these boots on artificial grass pitches?

No, these boots are specifically designed with moulded studs for firm ground (FG) natural grass pitches. Using them on artificial grass (AG) can lead to premature wear of the studs and potentially reduce grip and comfort.

How do I clean the kangaroo leather?

After use, brush off loose dirt. Wipe the leather with a damp cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals. Air dry at room temperature with newspaper inside to maintain shape. Regularly apply a quality leather conditioner to keep it supple.

How long does it take to break in these boots?

Kangaroo leather typically molds to your foot faster than synthetic materials, but a break-in period is still recommended. Wear them for a few short training sessions (1-3 hours) before a full match to ensure optimal comfort.

What is the benefit of the fold-over tongue?

The fold-over tongue provides a cleaner strike zone by covering the laces, which can lead to better ball contact and a more traditional feel. It also adds to the classic aesthetic of the boot.

Are these boots suitable for wide feet?

Kangaroo leather is known for its ability to stretch and conform to the foot over time, often accommodating wider feet better than rigid synthetic materials. However, individual fit can vary. Info needed: Try them on to assess the comfort for your foot shape.

What size should I choose?

Football boots typically require a snug fit for optimal ball control. We recommend trying your usual UK size first. Info needed: Consult adidas's specific sizing chart if available, as sizing can sometimes vary slightly between models.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too stiff or uncomfortable

Kangaroo leather requires a break-in period. Wear them for short periods during training to allow the leather to mold to your foot. Applying a leather conditioner can also help soften the material.

Loss of traction on firm ground

Check the moulded studs for wear and tear; severely worn studs will reduce grip. Ensure the soleplate is clean and free of mud or debris before playing. If playing on surfaces other than firm ground, consider boots designed for those specific conditions.

Leather cracking or drying out

This is often due to improper drying or lack of conditioning. Always air dry away from heat and regularly apply a specialized leather conditioner to keep the material supple and hydrated.

Laces come undone frequently

Ensure you are using a secure knot (e.g., a double knot). Check the condition of your laces; worn laces may not hold a knot as well. Consider replacing them if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions ### Setup 1. Lacing: Unlace the boots fully. Insert your foot, ensuring your heel is snug against the back. 2. Tighten: Start lacing from the bottom, pulling each section firm but not overly tight. Ensure the fold-over tongue is positioned correctly to cover the laces for a clean striking surface. 3. Secure: Tie a secure knot that won't come undone during play. Ensure the fit is snug around your midfoot and forefoot, allowing for natural toe movement. ### Compatibility These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces. This includes natural grass pitches that are typically dry or slightly damp. They are not recommended for Artificial Grass (AG), Soft Ground (SG), or Indoor (IC) surfaces, as this can damage the studs and reduce performance. ### Care 1. Cleaning After Use: After every match or training session, gently brush off loose dirt and grass from the sole and upper using a soft brush or cloth. 2. Wipe Down: Use a damp cloth to wipe down the leather upper, removing any remaining dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals. 3. Drying: Do not dry the boots in direct sunlight or with artificial heat sources (like radiators), as this can crack and stiffen the leather. Stuff the boots with newspaper or a boot tree to absorb moisture and maintain their shape, then air dry at room temperature. 4. Conditioning (Leather Care): Regularly apply a high-quality leather conditioner or cream specifically designed for football boots to keep the kangaroo leather soft, supple, and to prevent cracking. Follow the product's instructions. 5. Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place, ideally in a boot bag to protect them from dust and damage.
