FAQs

What type of playing surface are these boots suitable for?

These New Balance Furon Elite FG boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces, meaning natural grass pitches that are firm and dry.

What is Hypoknit and what does it do?

Hypoknit is a specialized knit material used in the upper of the boot. It features data-mapped dual textures that offer different sensations on contact with the ball, enhancing dribbling accuracy and allowing for better power or finesse.

Is it normal for the lacquer on the soleplate to wear off?

Yes, the lacquer finish on the bottom of these boots is designed to wear off during play. This is purely aesthetic and does not affect the performance, durability, or functionality of the product.

Which professional players endorse the Furon range?

The Furon range is endorsed by several professional players, including Bukayo Saka, Sadio Mane, Michelle Cooper, and Eberechi Eze.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The boots feature a low-profile Hypoknit collar for enhanced lockdown and fit, and offset lacing with an extended strike zone for optimal boot-to-ball contact. Lace them securely to your comfort level. Info needed: For specific sizing advice or if you have wider feet, consult a sizing guide or try them on.

Can I use these boots on artificial grass?

While it may be possible, these boots are optimized for firm ground. Using them on artificial grass (AG) can lead to premature wear of the studs and soleplate, and may not provide optimal grip or comfort.

Troubleshooting

Lacquer finish on the soleplate is wearing off.

This is a normal characteristic of the product. The lacquer finish is designed to wear off during play and does not affect the boot's performance, durability, or structural integrity.

Boots feel uncomfortable or tight during initial wear.

Ensure you have the correct size. Football boots, especially performance models, often require a short break-in period. Wear them for lighter training sessions before competitive matches to allow the materials to mold to your foot. Check your lacing technique for optimal comfort and lockdown.

Poor traction on the pitch.

Verify that you are playing on a firm ground surface, which is what these boots are designed for. If the pitch is too soft or artificial, the studs may not provide optimal grip. Also, ensure the studs are clean and free from excessive mud or debris that could reduce traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These boots require minimal setup. Simply put them on, lace them up securely to achieve your preferred fit, and ensure the low-profile Hypoknit collar provides a snug yet comfortable feel around your ankle. Consider a short break-in period during training sessions before competitive matches to fully adapt to their feel.

Compatibility: The New Balance Furon Elite FG are Firm Ground (FG) football boots. This means they are specifically designed for use on natural grass pitches that are firm and dry. Using them on artificial grass (AG), soft ground (SG), or indoor surfaces may compromise performance, durability, and could void warranty in some cases.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After each use, wipe off dirt and mud with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a soft brush and mild soap solution. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  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 in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using boot trees or stuffing with newspaper can help maintain their shape.
  4. Lacquer Wear: Be aware that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the soleplate may wear off during play. This is normal and does not affect the performance or durability of the boot.
