FAQs

What type of playing surface are these boots suitable for?

These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) pitches, which include natural grass surfaces.

What is the 'HybridTouch upper' made of?

The HybridTouch upper features a synthetic suede and foil construction with soft haptic texturing, designed to provide excellent ball feel and control.

Why are there two different sockliners included?

The boots come with two interchangeable sockliners: the SL (Speed Light) sockliner for pure speed and minimal weight, and the Comfort sockliner for enhanced impact absorption and cushioning. You can choose based on your preference.

How lightweight are these boots?

The adidas F50 Elite x Messi FG boots weigh approximately 190g, making them very lightweight for explosive speed and agility.

Do these boots contain recycled materials?

Yes, these boots are made with at least 20% recycled materials as part of adidas' commitment to sustainability.

What is the 'burrito tongue' feature?

The 'burrito tongue' is a unique knit tongue design that wraps around the foot, allowing for a slightly wider and more accommodating fit, enhancing overall comfort.

Is it normal for the lacquer on the soleplate to wear off?

Yes, it is completely normal for the lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot's soleplate to wear off during play. This is a cosmetic occurrence and does not affect the boot's performance, durability, or grip.

Troubleshooting

My boots feel uncomfortable or too tight.

Football boots often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them during light training sessions to allow the materials to adapt to your foot. Also, try switching between the included SL and Comfort sockliners to find the fit that provides optimal comfort for you. Ensure your socks are not too thick.

The lacquer finish on the soleplate is wearing off.

This is a normal and expected characteristic of this product. The wearing off of the lacquer finish is purely cosmetic and does not impact the performance, grip, or durability of the Sprintframe 360 soleplate. Continue to use your boots as intended.

I'm experiencing less grip than expected on the pitch.

Ensure you are playing on a firm ground (FG) pitch for which these boots are designed. Check the soleplate for any accumulated mud or debris between the studs and clean thoroughly. Also, inspect the studs for excessive wear; while durable, prolonged use can reduce their effectiveness over time.

The boot feels too heavy or not responsive enough.

Ensure you are using the 'SL' (Speed Light) sockliner, which is designed for pure speed and minimal weight. The 'Comfort' sockliner offers more cushioning but adds slight bulk. Also, confirm the boot size is correct, as an ill-fitting boot can feel cumbersome.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional Speed and Acceleration: Engineered for rapid bursts of pace and straight-line speed.
  • Enhanced Agility: Sprintframe 360 soleplate facilitates quick, decisive cuts and changes of direction.
  • Customizable Comfort: Two included sockliners allow players to choose between pure speed or added cushioning.
  • Secure and Supportive Fit: Features like the burrito tongue and moulded 3Stripes provide a stable and comfortable experience.
  • Lightweight Construction: Reduces fatigue and enhances quickness on the field.
  • Messi Signature Design: Incorporates specific design elements and preferences of Lionel Messi.

Cons

  • Lacquer Wear: The lacquer finish on the soleplate may wear off during use, though this is cosmetic and does not affect performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

  1. Lace Closure: Ensure laces are securely tied to provide a snug and personalized fit. Adjust tension to your comfort.
  2. Sockliner Choice: Before first use, decide which sockliner best suits your playstyle. Insert the SL sockliner for maximum lightweight speed, or the Comfort sockliner for additional impact absorption. Simply remove the pre-installed sockliner (if any) and replace it with your preferred option.

Compatibility

  • These adidas F50 Elite x Messi boots are designed exclusively for Firm Ground (FG) football pitches. They are optimized for natural grass surfaces and should not be used on artificial turf (AG), soft ground (SG), or indoor (IC) surfaces as this may damage the boots or cause injury.

Care

  1. Cleaning After Use: After each match or training session, wipe off any mud or dirt from the upper and soleplate using a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used on the soleplate.
  2. Drying: Allow your boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can cause materials to stiffen, crack, or shrink.
  3. Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  4. Lacquer Finish: Please note that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot's soleplate may wear off during play. This is a normal cosmetic occurrence and does not affect the performance or durability of the product.
