Setup:
- Lacing: Loosen the laces adequately before putting on the boots.
- Fit Adjustment: Slide your foot in and gently tighten the laces from the toe upwards, ensuring a snug but comfortable fit. The *tunnel tongue* is designed to wrap securely around your foot for optimal lockdown.
- Knotting: Tie a secure knot that won't come undone during play.
Compatibility:
These boots are specifically designed for Turf (TF) surfaces, also known as artificial grass pitches. The *lug rubber outsole* provides specialized traction for these environments. Using them on natural grass (FG), firm ground (FG), soft ground (SG), or indoor courts (IC) is not recommended as it can compromise performance and the longevity of the outsole.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove loose dirt and mud using a soft brush or damp cloth. For tougher grime, a mild soap solution can be used, but avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources (like radiators), as this can damage the materials and adhesives. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place. Using a boot bag can protect them from dust and damage.
- Maintenance: Regularly check laces for wear and replace if necessary. Inspect the soleplate for any signs of excessive wear that might impact grip.
