Setup, Compatibility & Care
First Use & Break-In
Upon receiving your Nike Tiempo Legend 10 Elite FG boots, wear them for short, light training sessions or walks to allow the FlyTouch Plus upper to naturally mold to your foot shape. This break-in period helps maximize comfort and performance on the pitch.
Compatibility
These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces. This means natural grass pitches that are firm or slightly damp. Using them on artificial grass (AG), turf (TF), or indoor (IC) surfaces can damage the studs, reduce traction, and potentially lead to injury.
Care & Maintenance
- Cleaning: After each use, remove loose dirt and grass clippings from the boots using a soft brush or cloth. Wipe down the FlyTouch Plus upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct sunlight, radiators, or other heat sources, as this can damage the upper material and adhesives.
- Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place, ideally with boot trees or crumpled paper inside to help maintain their shape.
- Stud Check: Regularly inspect the studs for any signs of wear or damage. Replace boots if studs are severely worn down, as this can compromise traction and safety.
- Odor Control: Use anti-odor sprays or inserts to keep the interior fresh.
