Product Information
Full details
The New Balance Furon Pro V9 is designed for explosive, fast-paced players who prioritize acceleration and sharp directional movement on the pitch. Offering a lightweight construction and a secure, lockdown feel, these boots are perfect for strikers and wingers looking for precise ball control; however, players seeking high-cushion support for long-distance comfort may find the minimalist, speed-focused build less forgiving than traditional heritage boots.

FAQs
Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?
The Furon Pro V9 is primarily designed for firm ground (FG) surfaces. While they may work on some artificial grass, consistent use on high-abrasion surfaces may wear the studs prematurely.
How do I maintain the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt and a damp cloth for surface stains. Avoid soaking the boots in water.
Is the sizing true to standard UK measurements?
Yes, they follow standard UK sizing, but the fit is intended to be snug for speed performance. If you prefer a looser fit, consider testing them with your preferred match-day socks.
What is the benefit of the knitted collar?
The knitted collar provides a seamless, adaptive fit around the ankle that prevents irritation and keeps the boot securely attached during rapid movements.
Can I use these in wet conditions?
Yes, the thin TPU film overlay helps protect the mesh from water absorption, though the boots should be dried properly after every wet-weather session.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too stiff out of the box
Wear the boots for short sessions (20-30 minutes) on grass before full-match use to allow the synthetic materials to soften and adapt to your foot shape.
Studs collecting debris or grass
Use a specialized boot cleaning brush or a dull plastic scraper to clear the areas between the T-shaped studs after every game to maintain traction performance.
Pros and Cons

Cons

- Best suited for firm ground surfaces only
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best out of your Furon V9 boots, ensure you are wearing the correct size to achieve the intended 'lockdown' sensation. When first putting them on, tighten the laces progressively from the bottom up to ensure an even distribution of pressure.
Regarding care:
- After use, remove any mud or debris using a soft-bristled brush.
- Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth; avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges that could damage the TPU film.
- Allow the boots to air dry naturally in a cool, ventilated area. Never place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can warp the materials or damage the adhesives.
- If the boots are damp inside, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
