FAQs
What type of football pitches are these boots suitable for?
These adidas Copa Pure 2 Elite boots are specifically designed for Soft Ground (SG) pitches, which are typically wet, muddy, or soft natural grass fields.
Do I need to order a different size than my usual?
Yes, adidas recommends going up half a size from your standard foot size to achieve the perfect fit with this model.
What is Fusionskin technology?
Fusionskin technology combines classic leather with modern materials and construction, creating a seamless and soft upper that enhances ball touch and sensation through intricate 3D haptics.
How do I clean and care for my leather football boots?
After use, clean off mud with a soft brush and water, then wipe the upper with a damp cloth. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat. For the leather, you can periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep it supple.
Are these boots made with sustainable materials?
Yes, the upper of the adidas Copa Pure 2 Elite features at least 50% recycled content, contributing to environmental sustainability efforts.
Can I wear these boots on artificial grass or firm ground?
It is not recommended to wear Soft Ground (SG) boots on artificial grass (AG) or firm ground (FG) pitches. The studs are optimized for soft surfaces and may not provide proper grip, can damage the pitch, or wear down prematurely on harder surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too small or tight despite ordering my usual size.
The product description advises going up half a size for the perfect fit. If you ordered your usual size, this could be the reason for the tightness. Consider exchanging for half a size larger.
Poor grip or slipping on the pitch.
Ensure you are playing on a soft ground (SG) pitch, which these boots are designed for. If the pitch is too dry or firm, SG studs will not perform optimally. Also, check that the studs are clean and free of excessive mud buildup.
Discomfort or rubbing during initial wears.
As these boots have a leather forefoot, a short break-in period is often needed. Wear them for shorter periods during training sessions to allow the material to mold to your foot. Ensure socks are appropriate and laces are tied correctly, not too tight or too loose.
Leather looks dry or cracked over time.
This often indicates a lack of moisture. Clean the boots thoroughly and apply a specialized leather conditioner or balm to nourish the material. Avoid drying boots with direct heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Sizing: It is highly recommended to go up half a size from your usual foot size when purchasing the adidas Copa Pure 2 Elite to achieve the optimal fit. This ensures your foot has enough space while maintaining a snug feel.
- Lacing: Ensure the laces are securely tied, but not overly tight, allowing the ergonomic closure to provide a streamlined connection without restricting blood flow or comfort.
- Break-in Period: As these boots feature a leather forefoot, a short break-in period of 1-3 training sessions might be beneficial to allow the leather to mold perfectly to your foot shape.
Compatibility
These boots are specifically designed for Soft Ground (SG) football pitches. This means they are ideal for natural grass fields that are wet, muddy, or otherwise soft. They are not recommended for Artificial Ground (AG), Firm Ground (FG), or Indoor (IC) surfaces, as the studs can cause damage to the pitch or the boots, and may not provide optimal grip.
Care
Proper care will extend the lifespan and maintain the performance of your boots:
- Cleaning After Use: Immediately after playing, clean off any mud or debris from the upper and soleplate using a soft brush and water. A damp cloth can be used for the Fusionskin upper.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can cause the leather to crack or shrink. Stuffing the boots with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place. Using a boot bag can protect them from dust and scratches.
- Leather Treatment (Optional): Periodically, you may apply a leather conditioner or cream to the leather forefoot to keep it supple and prevent drying out.
