FAQs

What type of playing surface are these boots designed for?

These boots are specifically designed for 'SG' or Soft Ground pitches, which are typically wet, muddy, or natural grass fields.

Can I use these boots on artificial grass or firm ground?

No, using soft ground (SG) boots on artificial grass (AG) or firm ground (FG) surfaces is not recommended. It can damage the boots' studs, reduce performance, and potentially lead to injury.

How do I clean my adidas RS15 SG Rugby Boots?

After each use, remove mud and debris with a soft brush. Wipe the boots down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat.

Are the studs on these boots replaceable?

Yes, the six metal studs on the soleplate are removable and replaceable. It's important to regularly check and tighten them with a stud wrench.

What is the benefit of the asymmetrical lacing?

The asymmetrical lacing system provides a larger, cleaner striking surface on the instep of the boot, which helps to improve kicking accuracy and ball control.

Are these boots suitable for all rugby positions?

While versatile, these boots are particularly well-suited for backs (e.g., wingers, fly-halves) or players who prioritize speed, agility, and precision kicking due to their lightweight design and specific features.

What does 'made in part with recycled materials' mean for the boots?

It means a portion of the materials used in the construction of these boots comes from recycled sources, helping to reduce waste and the environmental impact of manufacturing new materials.

Troubleshooting

Studs feel loose or fall out during play.

Before every use, check and securely tighten all removable metal studs using a stud wrench. If a stud is missing, replace it promptly.

Experiencing poor grip or slipping on soft ground.

Ensure the metal studs are clean and free of mud buildup, allowing them to penetrate the ground effectively. Check for excessive wear on studs and replace them if worn down.

Discomfort or rubbing, especially around the heel or forefoot.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate rugby socks. Re-lace the boots to achieve a snug but not overly tight fit. The boots may require a short 'break-in' period to conform to your foot shape.

Boots retain a strong odor after use.

Thoroughly clean the inside and outside of the boots after each use. Allow them to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Consider using shoe deodorizers or baking soda to absorb moisture and neutralize odors.

Upper material is losing its shape or becoming stiff.

Avoid drying boots with direct heat. Clean the synthetic upper regularly with a mild cleaner designed for athletic footwear to maintain its flexibility. Store with shoe trees if possible.
