Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these boots suitable for artificial grass (AG)?

No, these boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) natural grass pitches. Using them on artificial grass may provide inadequate traction and could damage the boots or increase the risk of injury.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Measure your child's foot and compare it to the Nike sizing chart. The boot should feel snug but not uncomfortably tight, with a small amount of space at the toe. Ensure the heel is secure.

Can these boots be machine washed?

It is not recommended to machine wash football boots. Cleaning with a damp cloth and brush is the best method to maintain the integrity of the materials.

What is the benefit of the debossed touch grooves?

The debossed touch grooves are designed to enhance your control over the ball, allowing for more precise touches, dribbling, and flicks.

How often should I replace my child's football boots?

Football boots should be replaced when they show signs of significant wear, no longer fit properly, or if the traction is compromised. For growing children, this may be more frequent.

What is the advantage of the knitted tongue?

The knitted tongue provides a dynamic and adaptive lockdown, creating a secure and comfortable fit that feels like a second skin, minimizing movement within the boot.

Are these boots good for wide feet?

The Tiempo range generally offers a comfortable, adaptable fit. However, if your child has particularly wide feet, it is advisable to try them on or consult reviews specific to fit.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure laces are adjusted correctly. Wear with appropriate football socks and consider a short break-in period. If persistent, the size may not be suitable.

Traction is poor on wet grass

While designed for firm ground, extremely wet conditions may reduce grip. Ensure studs are clean and free of mud. For very wet pitches, consider a boot designed for soft ground if available.

Upper material feels stiff

The FlyTouch synthetic upper may require a short break-in period. Consistent wear during training sessions will help soften the material and improve flexibility.

Laces come undone frequently

Tie the laces securely using a double knot. Consider replacing the laces with a more durable, anti-slip type if this is a recurring problem.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Excellent ball touch and control due to the FlyTouch upper and grooved design.
Comfortable fit with enhanced cushioning around the ankle and a secure lockdown.
Reliable traction on firm ground pitches, supporting quick movements.
Durable construction suitable for young players.
Classic Tiempo aesthetic with modern performance enhancements.

Cons

Primarily designed for firm natural grass, not optimal for artificial turf.
May require a break-in period for some users.
Laces may come undone during intense play if not tied securely.
Sizing may vary; always check the size guide.
Less suited for players seeking extreme flexibility or minimalistic boot designs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Lacing: Lace up the boots snugly using the provided laces. Ensure a secure fit that doesn't restrict circulation but prevents foot slippage within the boot.
Initial Wear: Wear the boots for a short period indoors or during light training to allow them to mold to your feet.

Compatibility:

Surface: These boots are designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces, meaning natural, slightly wet or dry grass pitches. They are not recommended for artificial turf, hard or gravel surfaces as the stud pattern may not provide optimal grip and could lead to premature wear.

Care:

Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Stuff the boots with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture and help them retain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag to protect them from dust and damage. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
