FAQs

What does 'FG' stand for?

FG stands for Firm Ground, indicating that these boots are designed for use on natural grass pitches that are relatively dry and firm.

Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?

No, these boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) and are not recommended for use on artificial grass (AG) surfaces, as the stud pattern can cause discomfort or damage.

What is the purpose of the floating tongue?

The floating tongue is designed to provide a secure, adaptable fit and allows for easier step-in access.

How should I clean my boots?

Wipe them clean with a damp cloth after use and allow them to air dry away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing.

What is the Icon Takeover Collection?

The Icon Takeover Collection highlights top adidas athletes and brings their signature styles and technologies to the forefront, celebrating their achievements.

Will the soleplate lacquer wear off?

Yes, the lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot may wear off during play. This is a normal cosmetic occurrence and does not affect the boot's performance.

What does the 'Powerspine' technology do?

Powerspine technology provides midfoot stability during powerful shots by reducing foot deformation upon impact with the ball, optimizing power transfer.

Troubleshooting

Lacquer finish on soleplate wearing off

This is a cosmetic effect of normal play and does not impact the performance or structural integrity of the boot. Continue using as normal.

Boots feel stiff initially

New boots often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for shorter sessions initially and gradually increase usage time to allow them to mold to your feet.

Laces not staying tied

Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing laces with a different material if slipping persists.

Discomfort around the ankle

Adjust the lacing system, particularly around the ankle area. Ensure the Primeknit collar is sitting comfortably and not too tight. If discomfort persists, consult the fit guide or consider trying a different model.

  • Enhances goal-scoring potential through precision and power.
  • Offers superior traction and agility on firm ground.
  • Comfortable and adaptable fit with Primeknit collar.
  • Durable construction with focus on performance.
  • Features signature branding for a premium feel.

Cons

  • Lacquer finish on the soleplate may wear off during play.
  • Designed primarily for firm ground, limiting versatility on other surfaces.

  • Advanced technologies may be overkill for casual players.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the boots are the correct size for a comfortable fit.
  2. Lace up the boots using the provided laces, adjusting the floating tongue for optimal comfort and ease of entry.

Compatibility:

  • These boots are designed for use on Firm Ground (FG) surfaces, typically natural grass pitches that are not excessively wet or muddy.
  • They are not recommended for Artificial Grass (AG) or soft ground (SG) due to the stud configuration.

Care:

  • After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  • Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the materials.
  • Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a boot bag, to maintain their condition.
