Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight.

Adjust the lacing to loosen the fit. If the issue persists, consider trying a half-size larger.

Poor grip on the field.

Check the studs for any damage or wear. Ensure the boots are used on the appropriate firm ground surface. If problems continue, consider another model of shoes.

Gripknit is losing its stickiness.

Clean the Gripknit upper with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris that might affect the ball-to-boot connection. Avoid using harsh chemicals.

The Zoom Air cushioning feels less responsive.

Ensure the boots are properly laced. Give the boots a few sessions to break in. If the problem continues, consider replacing the boots if they are old.
