No, these adidas RS-15 boots are specifically designed with a soft ground soleplate (SG), featuring metal studs, which provides optimal grip on wet, muddy, and soft natural grass pitches. Using them on firm ground can damage the studs and the pitch, and will not provide ideal traction.
After each use, remove loose mud with a brush or scraper. Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth, using a mild soap solution for tougher stains. Air dry them away from direct heat, and stuff with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape.
Yes, the six metal studs on the soft ground soleplate are removable and replaceable. This allows for customization and replacement of worn studs, ensuring consistent grip.
Asymmetrical lacing creates a larger, cleaner strike zone on the instep of the boot. This design enhances kicking accuracy and power by providing a more consistent contact point with the ball.
The boots are designed for a regular fit. To ensure correct fit, try them on with the type of rugby socks you typically wear. They should feel snug and supportive without being uncomfortably tight, and your toes should not be pressing against the very end of the boot. The padding at the heel and collar should feel secure.
Yes, while designed for agility and speed, the robust construction, cushioning, and superior soft ground grip make them suitable for all rugby positions, from agile backs to powerful forwards, who play on soft pitches.
Info needed: Check product packaging or retailer details for inclusion of a stud key. It is often sold separately.
The boots feature a soft synthetic upper, textile lining, and a synthetic sole. They are also made in part with recycled content.
Ensure all metal studs are clean and securely tightened. Replace worn or damaged studs. Confirm the ground conditions are appropriate for soft ground boots; these boots are not designed for firm ground.
Ensure socks are appropriate for rugby (e.g., padded, moisture-wicking). Re-tie laces to ensure even pressure and a snug, but not overly tight, fit. Break-in period is crucial; wear them during shorter sessions first.
Clean boots thoroughly after each use, removing all mud. Allow them to air dry completely, potentially stuffing them with newspaper to absorb internal moisture. Avoid leaving them in a wet boot bag.
Ensure you are tying a double knot. Consider trying a different lacing technique if the issue persists. Check if laces are worn and need replacement.
Setup1. Initial Inspection: Before first use, check that all six metal studs are securely tightened. Use a stud key (often sold separately or included with some boot purchases) to ensure they are firm.2. Lacing: Utilize the asymmetrical lacing to achieve a snug, supportive fit. Start from the bottom eyelets and work your way up, pulling firmly but comfortably, ensuring even pressure across your foot for optimal comfort and kicking accuracy.3. Break-In: Wear the boots for a few short practice sessions before a full match to allow them to mold to your feet and prevent discomfort.CompatibilityThese boots are specifically designed for soft ground (SG) pitches. This includes natural grass fields that are wet, muddy, or otherwise soft. They are not recommended for firm ground (FG), artificial grass (AG), or indoor surfaces, as the metal studs can cause damage to the pitch and premature wear to the boots, and may not provide optimal grip.Care1. Cleaning: After each use, especially on muddy pitches, clean your boots immediately. Remove excess mud and debris with a boot scraper or stiff brush. Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals.2. Stud Maintenance: Regularly check the tightness of the metal studs. Loose studs can be lost or cause instability. Clean out any mud or grass from around the studs.3. Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the synthetic materials and adhesive. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.4. Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using a boot bag can protect them from dirt and scratches when not in use.
