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:
- 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.
- 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.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using boot trees or stuffing with newspaper can help maintain their shape.
- 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.
