FAQs
What does 'FG' stand for on these boots?
FG stands for Firm Ground. These boots are designed for use on natural, dry grass pitches.
Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?
While they can be used on artificial grass, FG boots are optimized for natural firm ground. For artificial surfaces, AG (Artificial Grass) specific boots are generally recommended for better performance and reduced risk of injury.
How do I clean my F50 Pro x Messi boots?
Wipe them clean with a damp cloth after each use. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing.
What is the significance of the Messi collaboration?
These boots are designed with Lionel Messi's input, incorporating his preferred fit and stylistic elements, offering a signature touch for fans and players alike.
Will the soleplate lacquer wear off?
Yes, the lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot may wear off during play. This is a normal cosmetic effect and does not impact the boot's performance.
What materials are used in the upper?
The upper is made from a HybridTouch material, a synthetic suede and foil construction, designed to provide a soft feel with added structure and support.
Can these boots be used by both men and women?
Yes, these are unisex boots designed to fit adult players regardless of gender.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight
Ensure laces are loosened before putting on. Wear with appropriate football socks. Break in the boots gradually over a few sessions.
Traction feels inadequate
Confirm you are playing on firm, natural grass. Clean the studs of any mud or debris. For alternative surfaces, consider boots specifically designed for those conditions.
Lacquer finish wearing off
This is expected cosmetic wear and does not affect performance. Continue using the boots as normal.
Discomfort in the heel area
Ensure the external heel counter is not causing pressure. Adjust lacing to provide more or less support as needed. Check sock fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care:
- Cleaning: After use, clean the boots with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
