adidas Copa Pure Elite Firm Ground Football Boots - Black - UK 7.5

These adidas Copa Pure Elite boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces. This means natural grass pitches that are dry or slightly damp.

No, these boots are not recommended for artificial grass. Using FG boots on AG surfaces can cause premature wear to the studs and the pitch, and may also increase the risk of injury.

'Fusion skin' refers to the innovative upper material, combining ultra-soft leather with a 3D haptic print. This combination provides a highly precise and accurate touch on the ball, enhancing your control and feel.

After each use, wipe off dirt with a damp cloth or soft brush. For the leather forefoot, use a leather cleaner/conditioner. Air dry naturally, away from direct heat. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Yes, the upper of these boots is made with at least 50% recycled material, reflecting adidas's commitment to sustainability.

The laced PRIMEKNIT collar provides a firm, comfortable, and cushioned fit that snugly wraps around your ankle. This offers excellent lockdown support, enhancing stability and confidence during quick movements.

Ensure you've unlaced them adequately before putting them on. The PRIMEKNIT collar is designed for a snug fit. If discomfort persists, check your sock thickness and ensure your foot isn't swelling. A short break-in period during light activity can help the materials adapt to your foot.

Confirm that you are playing on a firm ground surface. These boots are not designed for artificial turf, soft ground, or extremely hard ground. Inspect the studs for any wear or damage. If the pitch is excessively wet or muddy, these FG boots may not provide optimal grip, and SG (Soft Ground) boots might be more appropriate.

Clean immediately after use. Use a soft brush to remove loose mud, then a damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Pay extra attention to the spaces between the studs. For the leather parts, consider a specialized leather cleaning product. Always air dry away from direct heat.

New boots, especially those with a leather forefoot, often require a break-in period. Wear them during lighter training sessions to allow the materials to soften and conform to your foot's shape. Regular conditioning of the leather can also help maintain flexibility.
