After use, clean off dirt, allow them to air dry away from direct heat, and store them in a cool, dry place. Proper care helps maintain the boot's integrity and performance.

Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a snug but not overly restrictive fit. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape. Ensure you have selected the correct size.
Traction feels insufficient on the pitch
Ensure the studs are clean and free from mud or debris. For firm ground, these boots provide optimal grip; performance may be reduced on surfaces other than firm natural grass.
Stitching appears to be coming loose
Inspect the stitching carefully. Minor loose threads can sometimes be trimmed carefully. For significant issues, contact the retailer or manufacturer regarding warranty.
Upper material feels stiff
The synthetic microfibre upper may require a short break-in period. Wear them for training sessions or lighter games initially to allow them to soften and mold to your foot.
