FAQs
What type of pitch are these boots best for?
These boots are designed for Firm Ground (FG) pitches, which are typically natural grass fields that are not excessively wet or muddy.
How do I clean the boots?
Wipe off dirt with a dry cloth or soft brush. For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking or using harsh cleaners.
Can these boots be used on artificial turf?
No, these FG boots are not recommended for artificial turf. Using them on such surfaces can damage the studs and reduce their effectiveness.
What is the purpose of the fold-over tongue?
The fold-over tongue is designed to provide a cleaner and larger surface area for striking the ball, potentially improving accuracy and power.
How should the fold-over tongue be worn?
Players can choose to wear it folded over the laces or tucked under them, depending on personal preference and comfort.
Are these boots suitable for adults?
These specific models are listed as junior sizes, designed for kids and younger players. Adult versions may be available in different product lines.
What does 'Predator Club' signify?
'Predator Club' indicates a specific range within the adidas Predator line, typically focusing on accessible performance features for developing players.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight
Ensure laces are loosened before putting on. Wear with appropriate football socks. If still tight after initial wear, break-in period might be needed on the pitch.
Traction feels insufficient
Confirm the boots are being used on Firm Ground (FG) and not on wet or soft ground where different stud types are required. Ensure studs are clean and free from debris.
Fold-over tongue is uncomfortable
Experiment with different ways of positioning the tongue (folded under laces, folded over). Ensure the laces are tied correctly to secure the tongue as desired.
Synthetic upper feels stiff
Allow for a break-in period. Wear the boots for short periods during training sessions to gradually mold them to your feet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These football boots come ready to wear. Ensure they fit snugly but comfortably before use. The fold-over tongue can be secured under the laces or worn folded over, depending on player preference.
Compatibility: These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces, meaning natural grass pitches that are not excessively wet or muddy. They are not recommended for use on artificial turf or very hard surfaces as this can damage the studs and affect performance.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or a dry cloth. For tougher dirt, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the boots in water.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, to maintain their shape and condition.
