FAQs

Can I use these boots on artificial grass?

No, these are designed for soft natural ground. Using them on artificial surfaces can cause premature wear and potential instability.

How do I clean the textured upper?

Use a soft-bristled brush and a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the texture.

Does the Dynamic Fit collar stretch over time?

The material is designed to hold its shape, but it will naturally conform to your ankle shape after a few uses for a custom fit.

Are these boots waterproof?

While they perform well in wet conditions, they are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy water will eventually seep through the material.

What is the best way to store them?

Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the materials from drying out or discoloring.

Troubleshooting

Accumulation of mud in stud patterns

Use a specialized boot scraper or a plastic brush to remove caked mud after every session to maintain grip.

Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable

Break them in gradually during light training sessions before wearing them for a full match.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent traction on muddy and soft natural grass
  • Dynamic Fit collar enhances ankle stability and security
  • Textured upper allows for better ball manipulation in wet weather
  • Lightweight construction promotes top speed
  • Durable design for demanding pitch conditions

Cons

  • Not suitable for artificial grass (AG) or hard, dry ground
  • Stud configuration can cause discomfort on firm surfaces
  • Requires proper care after use to prevent material stiffening

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your boots, always check the stud tightness before heading onto the pitch, as the vibration during play can occasionally loosen them.

Compatibility:

  • These boots are exclusively designed for Soft Ground (SG) natural grass pitches.
  • Using these on artificial grass or concrete can cause premature stud wear and may increase the risk of injury due to the high traction profile.

Care Instructions:

  1. Remove excess mud immediately after the match using a soft brush.
  2. Wipe the boots down with a damp cloth; avoid submerging them in water.
  3. Stuff the boots with newspaper or a shoe tree and let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can crack the synthetic upper.
