FAQs
What type of player is the Copa Gloro II FG designed for?
These boots are ideal for adult male players who value a classic leather feel and cushioned touch, combined with modern lightweight performance, primarily for use on firm natural grass pitches.
Can I use these boots on artificial grass?
No, the Firm Ground (FG) studs are specifically designed for natural grass and can be damaged or cause injury if used on artificial surfaces. It is recommended to use boots designed for artificial grass in those conditions.
How do I clean the cow leather upper?
Wipe with a damp cloth after use and allow to air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking the boots. Regular conditioning will help maintain the leather's quality.
Is the foldover tongue a permanent feature?
No, the foldover tongue is designed to be removable, allowing players to customize their fit and feel. It is also padded for cleaner ball striking.
How much do these boots weigh?
A UK size 8 boot weighs approximately 280 grams. They are designed to be lighter than their predecessors for improved agility.
What is the main benefit of the quilted forefoot?
The quilted forefoot enhances the cushioning and provides a softer touch, contributing to more precise control during passing, dribbling, and shooting.
How does the soleplate differ from previous models?
The soleplate is a modern interpretation of classic designs, featuring refined geometry and conical studs that offer a balance of traction, comfort, and stability on firm ground surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure laces are not overtightened. The leather will stretch and mold to your foot with regular wear. Consider removing the padded tongue if it adds pressure.
Traction feels insufficient on wet grass
These boots are designed for firm ground. For wet or soft conditions, consider switching to a Soft Ground (SG) boot or a specialized all-weather trainer.
Leather shows signs of drying or cracking
Apply a suitable leather conditioner as per product instructions. Ensure the boots are not being dried too quickly or exposed to excessive heat.
Studs feel uncomfortable or cause pressure points
Ensure you are using the boots on the intended firm ground surface. Conical studs are designed for comfort, but initial break-in may be required. Check for any debris lodged in the stud sockets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Lacing: Adjust the standard lace closure for a snug, secure fit across the midfoot.
- Tongue Configuration: Decide whether to wear the foldover tongue up or down, or remove it entirely based on your preference for feel and strike area.
Compatibility:
- Surface: Designed exclusively for Firm Ground (FG) natural grass pitches. Use on artificial grass, hard ground, or excessively wet/muddy pitches may cause damage and void warranty.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth. For tougher dirt, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the boots.
- Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, away from direct sunlight.
- Leather Conditioning: Periodically use a leather conditioner to keep the cow leather supple and prevent cracking.
