adidas RS-15 Soft Ground Rugby Boots - Red - UK 10.5

These adidas RS-15 boots are specifically designed for soft ground (SG) pitches. This includes natural grass fields that are wet, muddy, or have give underfoot. They are not recommended for hard ground, artificial turf, or indoor surfaces.

After each use, remove loose mud with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe down the upper and studs. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat. Do not machine wash.

Yes, the adidas RS-15 Soft Ground Rugby Boots are made in part with recycled materials as part of adidas' commitment to reducing plastic waste.

Asymmetrical lacing is designed to create a larger, flatter, and cleaner striking surface on the instep of the boot. This can significantly improve kicking accuracy and power by allowing for better contact with the ball.

It's best to wear new boots for several shorter, less intense sessions (e.g., light training or warm-ups) before using them in a full match. This allows the materials to soften and mould to the unique shape of your foot, reducing the chance of discomfort or blisters.

Yes, the metal studs on soft ground boots are typically replaceable. You should use compatible rugby studs designed for soft ground conditions.

Yes, the adidas RS-15 series is available in a range of colors and sizes. Please check with your retailer for specific availability.

Ensure all metal studs are tightened and not excessively worn. Clean the studs thoroughly after each use, as caked mud can reduce traction. If studs are worn, replace them.

Ensure you have broken in your boots properly. Check your lacing for overly tight or loose spots. Wear appropriate rugby socks designed to reduce friction and provide cushioning. Verify the boot size is correct for your foot.

Re-evaluate your lacing technique for the asymmetrical system to ensure a snug fit that maximizes the clean striking surface. Practice kicking to become accustomed to the new feel and optimized contact area.

Thoroughly clean and air dry boots after every use. Remove insoles if possible to aid drying. Stuffing with newspaper helps absorb internal moisture. Avoid leaving them in a damp bag for extended periods.

Regularly check and tighten studs before and after each session. If studs continue to loosen, consider using thread lock on the stud threads. Ensure you are using the correct stud type for soft ground.
