FAQs
Are these boots suitable for artificial grass (AG)?
These are Firm Ground (FG) boots designed for natural grass. While they may work on some AG surfaces, they are not optimized for it and may wear out faster.
How do I ensure I have the right fit?
The SKX_2 Elite features a Performance FitKnit upper which provides a snug, sock-like feel. Ensure there is approximately a thumb's width of space at the toe.
Can I put these boots in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the internal chassis, cushioning, and upper materials. Always clean by hand using a damp cloth.
What is the purpose of the internal nylon chassis?
The internal nylon chassis acts as a structural spine for the boot, providing the rigidity needed for stability and efficient energy transfer during sprinting.
Will the silicon elements irritate my skin?
The silicon elements are integrated internally for lockdown and are generally not felt against the skin when wearing standard football socks.
Troubleshooting
Knit upper feels too tight during first wear
The FitKnit material is designed to stretch slightly and mould to the foot over time; wear them during low-intensity practice sessions to break them in gradually.
Lack of grip on the pitch
Ensure the studs are free of packed dirt or mud, as clogged studs can significantly reduce traction on firm ground.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Lightweight construction reduces fatigue
- Excellent energy return via Hyper Burst technology
- Precise ball handling with P.S.C. moulding

Cons
- Firm ground soles may not suit soft or muddy pitches
- Requires proper break-in period for the knit upper
- Limited size range for specific colorways
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, the SKX_2 Elite FG (Firm Ground) should be used exclusively on dry, natural grass pitches. Avoid using these boots on artificial grass or soft, muddy ground, as this can cause premature wear to the stud configuration.
Care Instructions:
- After each use, remove loose mud or dirt from the outsole using a soft-bristled brush.
- Wipe the Performance FitKnit upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface stains.
- Air dry the boots naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the knit material and adhesive.
- Use shoe trees or crumpled paper inside the boots after cleaning to help them maintain their shape.
