FAQs
What is the primary advantage of the X Speedportal.3?
The primary advantage is enhanced straight-line acceleration due to the specialized firm ground outsole featuring two extra forefoot studs.
Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?
No, these boots are designed for Firm Ground (FG) natural grass pitches. They are not recommended for artificial grass surfaces.
How much recycled material is used in these boots?
The textile upper features at least 50% recycled content.
Can I wash these boots in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these boots. Clean them manually with a soft brush and a damp cloth, and allow them to air dry.
What does 'Firm Ground' mean for the outsole?
Firm Ground means the outsole is designed with conical or bladed studs that provide optimal traction on natural grass pitches that are dry or only slightly wet.
How does the external heel lock contribute to performance?
The external heel lock provides additional stability, securing your heel in place during high-speed movements and quick directional changes.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Wear the boots indoors for short periods to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. Ensure you have the correct size and width for your foot type. Consider using slightly thinner socks if needed.
Traction is poor on the pitch
Confirm you are using the boots on the intended 'Firm Ground' surface. Clean any mud or debris from the studs. If playing on a very wet or soft surface, these boots may not be suitable; consider an alternative outsole type.
External heel counter feels stiff
This is designed for stability. Allow a break-in period. If irritation persists, ensure your socks provide adequate cushioning around the heel area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: These boots are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for a snug, supportive fit. Trying them on indoors before use is recommended to confirm comfort and fit.
Compatibility: The `Firm Ground` outsole is designed for use on natural grass pitches that are dry or only slightly damp. They are not recommended for artificial grass, hard courts, or very wet and muddy conditions, as the stud configuration may not provide optimal traction and could increase the risk of slippage or damage.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt and mud with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or fires, as this can damage the materials and affect the shape of the boot.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a breathable boot bag, away from direct sunlight.
- Laces: Check laces regularly for wear and tear and replace if necessary.
