Setup, Compatibility & Care
The PUMA Ultra Ultimate FG/AG boots are designed for Firm Ground (FG) and Artificial Ground (AG) pitches. Ensure you select the correct boot size for a comfortable, performance-enhancing fit.
Setup
- Lacing: Loosen the laces sufficiently to easily slide your foot into the boot. The regular to narrow fit is designed to hug your foot.
- Secure Fit: Once your foot is in, firmly tighten the laces from bottom to top. Ensure a snug fit without being overly restrictive, as the NanoGrip sockliner will help prevent internal slippage.
- Break-In: New boots may require a short break-in period to conform fully to your foot shape. Start with shorter training sessions before using them in competitive matches to ensure maximum comfort and performance.
Compatibility
- These boots are specifically compatible with Firm Ground (FG) pitches (natural grass, often dry to slightly wet) and Artificial Ground (AG) pitches (synthetic turf).
- Using them on unsuitable surfaces, such as very hard ground, concrete, or indoor courts, can damage the boots and may void any warranty.
Care Instructions
- Cleaning: After each use, remove loose dirt and grass from the outsole and upper with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive materials.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them on or near direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight) as this can cause materials to shrink, crack, or become brittle.
- Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, to maintain their shape and material integrity.
