FAQs
What type of pitch are these boots designed for?
These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) pitches. This means they are best suited for natural grass pitches that are relatively dry and firm.
How do I ensure the best fit for my child?
It's recommended to measure your child's foot and compare it to the sizing chart provided by adidas. Ensure there is a little room for growth but not so much that the boot is loose. The lace closure and Primeknit collar allow for adjustability.
Can these boots be used on artificial grass?
While some FG boots can be used on modern artificial grass, it is not their primary design. Using them on artificial surfaces may lead to accelerated wear on the studs and reduced traction. For dedicated artificial grass use, AG (Artificial Grass) specific boots are recommended.
What is the benefit of the Powerspine technology?
The Powerspine technology provides midfoot stability, which helps to reduce the deformation of the foot when making contact with the ball. This optimization results in more efficient power transfer for stronger shots.
Are these boots suitable for players of all ages?
These are specifically designed as 'Kids' football boots. While the technology aims for elite performance, the sizing and construction are tailored for younger players.
How does the Nanostrike Pro upper improve my shot?
The Nanostrike Pro upper combines a lightweight mesh with integrated haptic elements. These elements are strategically placed to enhance your touch and control, leading to greater accuracy and precision when striking the ball.
Do these boots contain recycled materials?
Yes, these boots are made in part with recycled materials, reflecting adidas' commitment to sustainability.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the boots are new, they may require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration. Adjust the lacing to find a more comfortable fit, ensuring the floating tongue is positioned correctly.
Traction is poor on the pitch
Confirm that you are using the boots on the intended Firm Ground (FG) surface. Ensure the studs are clean and free from debris. If the studs are significantly worn, they may need replacement.
Materials feel stiff or unyielding
New boots often have a break-in period. Gentle flexing of the boots off-pitch and wearing them for short durations during training sessions will help the materials adapt to your foot shape and become more supple.
Laces are difficult to adjust or keep tied
Ensure the laces are threaded through the eyelets correctly. Try a different lacing technique, such as a double knot, to secure them better. If the laces are worn, consider replacing them with new ones.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Ensure the boots are the correct size for a comfortable and secure fit.
- Lace up the boots using the provided closure system, adjusting the tightness for optimal support. The floating tongue is designed for easier entry.
Compatibility:
- These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) football pitches. Use on artificial grass, hard ground, or wet, muddy pitches may reduce performance and potentially damage the studs.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth. For tougher dirt, use a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a boot bag can protect them from dust and damage.
