FAQs

Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?

No, the FG (Firm Ground) soleplate is specifically designed for firm, natural grass pitches. Using them on artificial turf can damage the studs and soleplate.

How much do the Mizuno Alpha II FG boots weigh?

The boots weigh approximately 185g, making them a very lightweight option for players focused on speed.

What is the main benefit of the ZeroGlide technology?

ZeroGlide technology is incorporated into the sockliner and lining to provide a locked-in feel, preventing your foot from slipping inside the boot during quick movements and changes of direction.

How does the ENERZY foam help?

The ENERZY foam in the heel provides cushioning to absorb impact and offers energy return, helping to propel you forward into action.

Can I replace the sockliner?

Yes, the Alpha Mesh sockliner is removable and can be replaced if desired, or if you prefer to use your own custom insoles.

What does 'Made In Japan' signify for these boots?

'Made In Japan' signifies a commitment to high-quality craftsmanship, precision engineering, and superior materials in the manufacturing process.

Are the laces environmentally friendly?

Yes, the laces are made from at least 90% recycled content, contributing to a more sustainable product.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or stiff

New boots often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. Ensure laces are not over-tightened.

Foot slipping inside the boot

Check that the laces are tied correctly to secure your foot. Ensure the ZeroGlide sockliner is properly seated. Consider if the size is appropriate for your foot width.

Traction issues on the pitch

Confirm you are using the boots on the intended firm, natural ground surface. Clean any mud or debris from the studs, as this can reduce grip.

Reduced responsiveness or 'spring'

Ensure the KaRVO RS insole board is correctly positioned. Over time, the materials may naturally wear; consider if the boots have seen extensive use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Laces: Ensure the laces are threaded evenly and tied securely for a snug fit. The laces are made from at least 90% recycled content.
  2. Insole: The Alpha Mesh sockliner is removable. Ensure it is positioned correctly for maximum comfort and foot hold.

Compatibility:

  • These boots feature an FG (Firm Ground) soleplate. They are designed for use on firm, natural grass surfaces. Use on artificial turf or hard surfaces may cause premature wear or damage to the soleplate and studs.

Care:

  • Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Drying: Allow the boots 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 in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag to protect them from dust and moisture.
