FAQs

What type of playing surface are these boots suitable for?

These adidas F50 Elite FG boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces, which are typically dry, natural grass pitches.

What is the 'burrito tongue'?

The 'burrito tongue' is a knit tongue design that allows for a wider opening and provides a comfortable, adaptive fit, preferred by Lionel Messi.

Are two sockliners included with the boots?

Yes, two different sockliners are included: an SL (SuperLight) sockliner for pure speed and a Comfort sockliner for extra impact absorption, allowing you to customize your experience.

Will the silver finish on the soleplate last?

The lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot's soleplate may wear off during play. This is normal and does not affect the product's performance or durability.

How do I clean my adidas F50 Elite FG boots?

After use, wipe down the boots with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For tougher grime, use a soft brush. Air dry them away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or use harsh chemicals.

Are these boots made with recycled materials?

Yes, these boots feature at least 20% recycled content, contributing to adidas' efforts to reduce waste and reliance on finite resources.

Troubleshooting

The silver lacquer finish on the soleplate is wearing off.

This is a normal characteristic of the product and is purely cosmetic. It will not affect the performance, durability, or integrity of the boot.

My boots feel too tight or too loose.

First, ensure you have chosen the correct sockliner (SL for pure speed, Comfort for more cushioning). Adjust the lace closure to achieve your desired secure fit. If the issue persists, verify you have the correct size.

The boots lack grip on a wet or soft pitch.

These boots are designed specifically for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces. Their stud configuration is optimized for dry, firm natural grass. For wet or soft ground conditions, different boot types (e.g., Soft Ground (SG) or Artificial Ground (AG) studs) would be more appropriate.

Pros and Cons

  • Enhanced agility for quick cuts and changes of direction
  • Stable and supportive fit, especially with the external heel counter
  • Customizable comfort with two included sockliners
  • Sustainable construction using recycled materials
  • Durable HybridTouch upper offers good ball feel

Cons

  • Lacquer finish on the soleplate may wear off, though it's cosmetic
  • Primarily designed for firm ground, less suitable for other surfaces
  • "Burrito tongue" fit might not suit all foot shapes equally

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

  1. Choose Your Sockliner: Upon unboxing, select either the SL (SuperLight) sockliner for a minimalist, speed-focused feel, or the Comfort sockliner for additional cushioning and impact absorption. Simply insert your preferred sockliner into each boot.
  2. Lace Up: Utilize the lace closure system to achieve a secure and personalized fit. Ensure laces are tied firmly to prevent slippage during play.

Compatibility

  • Playing Surface: These boots are designed exclusively for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces. This includes natural grass pitches that are dry and firm. Using them on artificial turf (AG) or soft ground (SG) can lead to accelerated wear, reduced performance, or potential injury.
  • Foot Type: The "burrito tongue" is designed to accommodate a slightly wider fit, while the HybridTouch upper offers flexibility for various foot shapes.

Care

  1. Cleaning After Use: After each use, wipe down the boots with a damp cloth to remove dirt and mud. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
  3. Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a boot bag can protect them from dust and scratches.
  4. Lacquer Finish: The lacquer finish on the bottom of the soleplate may wear off during play. This is a normal cosmetic characteristic and does not affect the boot's performance or durability.
