FAQs

What type of playing surface are these boots suitable for?

These adidas F50 Elite x Messi FG Football Boots are specifically designed for use on Firm Ground (FG) pitches. Using them on other surfaces may impact performance and durability.

Are these boots lightweight?

Yes, these boots are engineered to be very lightweight, weighing approximately 190g. This design helps promote speed and reduce fatigue during play.

What is the purpose of the two different sockliners?

The boots come with two sockliners: a 'Speed' (SL) sockliner for a more direct, lightweight feel, and a 'Comfort' sockliner for enhanced cushioning. This allows you to customise the boot's feel to your preference.

Why is the lacquer finish on the sole wearing off?

It is a normal and expected characteristic for the lacquer finish on the Sprintframe 360 soleplate to wear off during play. This is purely cosmetic and does not affect the boot's performance, durability, or structural integrity.

Are these boots made with recycled materials?

Yes, these boots are made with at least 20% recycled materials, contributing to adidas's commitment to sustainability.

How do I clean my F50 Elite boots?

After each use, wipe down the Textile Upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution. Allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat.

What is the HybridTouch upper?

The HybridTouch upper combines synthetic suede and foil with soft haptic texturing. It is designed to provide a soft feel and enhanced ball control, giving you a better touch on the ball.

Troubleshooting

The lacquer finish on the sole is wearing off.

This is a normal characteristic of the Sprintframe 360 soleplate and is purely cosmetic. It does not affect the performance, durability, or structural integrity of the boots. Continue using them as intended.

Boots feel uncomfortable or too tight.

Ensure you have chosen the appropriate sockliner (Speed for a direct feel, Comfort for cushioning). Adjust the lace closure to ensure an even, snug fit without excessive tightness. If discomfort persists, allow a breaking-in period or consider trying a different size if possible.

Lack of grip or stability on the pitch.

Verify that you are playing on a firm ground (FG) surface, as these boots are optimised for such conditions. Ensure laces are tied securely to provide maximum support. Check if the studs are clean and free of debris.

Boots feel heavy or clunky during play.

While these boots are designed to be lightweight (~190g), ensure you have selected the 'Speed' (SL) sockliner if maximum lightness is desired. Also, confirm they are the correct size to prevent extra material adding perceived weight.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Explosive Speed: Sprintframe 360 soleplate designed for rapid acceleration and quick cuts.
  • Enhanced Ball Control: HybridTouch upper offers a soft, tactile feel for precise touch.
  • Customizable Comfort: Includes two different sockliners (Speed and Comfort) to suit individual preferences.
  • Stable and Agile: External heel counter and rounded studs provide excellent balance and agility.
  • Lightweight Construction: Minimises foot fatigue, allowing for sustained high performance.
  • Sustainable Choice: Incorporates recycled materials, aligning with eco-conscious values.
  • Messi Endorsed Style: Designed with and worn by Lionel Messi, offering a signature look and feel.

Cons

  • Sole Lacquer Wear: The cosmetic lacquer finish on the soleplate may wear off during use, though this does not affect performance.
  • Firm Ground Specific: Optimised solely for firm ground surfaces, limiting versatility on other pitch types.
  • Fit Preference: The burrito tongue design, while comfortable for many, might require some breaking in or personal preference adjustment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Lacing: Ensure the lace closure is snug but not overly tight. Adjust the laces evenly across the foot to secure a comfortable and supportive fit.
  2. Sockliner Selection: Your boots come with two sockliners: a 'Speed' (SL) sockliner for a lightweight, direct feel, and a 'Comfort' sockliner for enhanced cushioning. Choose the sockliner that best suits your preference for the match or training session. Simply remove one and insert the other.

Compatibility

  • Playing Surface: These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) pitches. Using them on artificial grass (AG), soft ground (SG), or indoor surfaces may compromise performance and durability.
  • Foot Type: The burrito tongue and lace closure allow for a degree of adaptability in fit, accommodating various foot shapes.
  • User Group: Designed for adults and are unisex.

Care

  • Cleaning: After each use, wipe down the Textile Upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could damage the material.
  • Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Do not force dry them with heaters or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees or stuffing them with newspaper can help maintain their shape.
  • Lacquer Finish: It is normal for the lacquer finish on the Sprintframe 360 soleplate to wear off during play. This is purely cosmetic and does not affect the performance or durability of the soleplate. There is no special care required for this aspect beyond regular cleaning.
