FAQs
What type of ground are these boots suitable for?
These boots are specifically designed for soft ground (SG) pitches, which are typically wet, muddy, or have longer grass. They are not recommended for firm or artificial ground.
Are the studs on these boots replaceable?
Yes, these boots feature six removable metal studs on the soft ground soleplate. You can replace them with compatible adidas studs if they become worn or damaged.
How should I clean my Adizero RS15 Ultimate boots?
After each use, remove loose mud with a soft brush. Wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
What does 'made in part with recycled materials' mean for these boots?
A portion of the materials used in the construction of these boots, such as the upper or lining, comes from recycled content. This helps reduce waste and adidas' environmental impact.
Are these boots suitable for all rugby positions?
These boots are ideal for agile players in the backline (e.g., scrum-half, fly-half, wing, full-back) who prioritize speed, quick changes of direction, and kicking accuracy. They may not offer the same level of protection or stability desired by forwards in the scrum.
What is asymmetrical lacing and how does it benefit me?
Asymmetrical lacing means the laces are offset to one side, creating a larger, cleaner, and flatter surface area on the instep for striking the ball. This can improve kicking accuracy and power by providing more consistent contact with the ball.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel unstable or lack grip on the pitch.
Ensure all six removable metal studs are securely tightened. Over time, studs can loosen. Check for worn-down studs and replace them if necessary. These boots are for soft ground; if playing on firm ground, switch to appropriate boots.
Boots feel uncomfortable or cause rubbing during play.
Allow for a break-in period as new boots can be stiff. Ensure you are wearing appropriate, well-fitting rugby socks. Experiment with lacing patterns and tension to alleviate pressure points. If discomfort persists, check sizing.
Difficulty achieving kicking accuracy despite specialized features.
Practice your kicking technique to adapt to the asymmetrical lacing and 3D textured upper. Ensure the boots are laced securely but not overly tight, allowing for natural foot flexion. Verify the ball's position on the boot for optimal contact.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Unpack: Carefully remove the boots from their packaging.
- Inspect Studs: Before first use, ensure all six removable metal studs are securely tightened into the soleplate. Use a stud key (often sold separately) if adjustment is needed.
- Lacing: Loosen the asymmetrical laces, put on your rugby socks, and then lace up the boots, ensuring a snug yet comfortable fit. Experiment with different lacing tensions to find what works best for your foot shape and preference.
Compatibility
- Pitch Type: These boots are exclusively designed for soft ground (SG) pitches, which are typically wet, muddy, or have longer grass. They are not recommended for firm ground (FG), artificial grass (AG), or hard ground (HG) as this can damage the boots and increase the risk of injury.
- User: Suitable for adult rugby players of all genders.
Care
- Cleaning After Each Use: After every game or training session, remove excess mud and debris from the boots and studs. Use a soft brush and warm water, avoiding harsh chemicals.
- Stud Maintenance: Regularly check that all studs (both metal and moulded) are clean and securely fastened. Replace any worn or damaged metal studs promptly to maintain optimal traction and prevent injury.
- Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not force dry them with direct heat (e.g., radiators, hairdryers) as this can damage the materials. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
