FAQs

Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?

No, these are specifically designed for soft natural grass. Using them on artificial surfaces may lead to injury or premature damage to the boots.

Can I replace the studs?

The Phoenix 2 Elite features a soft ground configuration which is generally compatible with standard replacement rugby studs.

How should I clean the boots after a muddy game?

Wipe away mud with a soft brush and use a damp cloth. Never put them in the washing machine.

Are these boots designed for forwards or backs?

They are versatile enough for both, providing the stability required for forwards and the agility needed for backs.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Utilize the lace-up system to tighten the boot until you feel a secure, locked-in sensation around the midfoot without restricting circulation.

Troubleshooting

Studs feeling loose

Use a standard rugby stud key to tighten each individual stud firmly before taking the field.

Accumulation of mud in the outsole

Use a specialized boot brush or a dull plastic scraper to clear mud from between the studs to maintain traction.

Boots feel stiff after storage

Ensure they are stored in a dry, well-ventilated area and lightly condition the synthetic upper if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional traction on soft and muddy ground
  • Reinforced upper increases longevity in physical play
  • Provides a stable, locked-in feel for improved agility
  • Reliable support for both forwards and backs

Cons

  • Not suitable for hard ground or artificial grass pitches
  • Requires proper cleaning to maintain traction and material integrity
  • Limited to soft ground performance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before your first match, ensure your studs are tightened securely. These boots are compatible exclusively with soft natural grass surfaces; using them on firm ground can cause discomfort and premature wear. After every game, remove excess mud with a soft brush and lukewarm water. Avoid using harsh detergents or putting the boots in a dryer, as high heat can damage the reinforced upper materials. Air dry the boots naturally at room temperature by removing the insoles and stuffing them with newspaper to absorb internal moisture.
