FAQs
What type of ground are these boots designed for?
These boots are specifically designed for soft ground (SG) pitches, which include natural grass fields that are wet, muddy, or soft.
Can I use these boots on artificial turf or firm ground?
No, using these Soft Ground (SG) boots on artificial turf or firm ground is not recommended. It can damage the studs, reduce performance, and potentially lead to injury. For those surfaces, you would need boots with an FG (firm ground) or AG (artificial ground) soleplate.
Are the metal studs replaceable?
Yes, the six metal studs on the soft ground soleplate are removable and replaceable. It's important to check their condition regularly and replace them when worn.
How should I clean my adidas Adizero RS15 Ultimate boots?
After use, remove loose mud with a soft brush. Wipe down the boots with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Air dry them naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
What is the purpose of the 'Speedframe outsole'?
The Speedframe outsole is engineered for lightweight performance and aggressive traction. It's designed to provide the stability and grip needed for quick acceleration and dynamic movements on the pitch.
What are 'Sensepods'?
Sensepods are foam inserts located in the heel area of the boot. They work in conjunction with the ripstop fabric to create a secure, locked-in feel around the ankle, enhancing comfort and control.
How do I ensure I get the correct size?
We recommend trying them on to ensure a snug, comfortable fit without being too tight or having excessive room at the toe. Consider wearing the socks you typically play in when trying them on. These boots are a regular fit in UK sizing.
Are these boots made with sustainable materials?
Yes, these adidas Adizero RS15 Ultimate boots are made in part with recycled content, reflecting a commitment to reducing environmental impact.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel loose or unstable during play.
Ensure your boots are laced tightly and evenly across your foot. Check that the size is correct; boots that are too large will not provide adequate stability. Wearing appropriate rugby socks can also improve fit.
Poor traction on a soft ground pitch.
Verify that all metal studs are present, clean, and securely tightened. If studs are worn down or clogged with mud, clean them or replace worn studs with new ones. Ensure the ground is indeed soft ground, as these boots are not designed for firm or artificial surfaces.
Experiencing discomfort or blisters.
Ensure your boots are properly broken in before intense use. Wear suitable, well-fitting rugby socks that wick moisture. Check lacing for any pressure points and adjust as needed. If discomfort persists, reassess boot size and fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
- Lacing: Before your first use, properly lace your boots, ensuring they are snug but not uncomfortably tight. The asymmetrical lacing pattern should follow the natural curve of your foot. Experiment with lacing tension to find your optimal fit.
- Stud Check: Verify that all six removable metal studs and five moulded support studs are securely tightened. Loose studs can affect performance and pose a risk.
Compatibility
- Ground Type: These boots are designed exclusively for soft ground (SG) pitches, which are typically wet, muddy, or soft natural grass surfaces. Using them on firm ground (FG) or artificial turf (AG) can damage the boots and increase the risk of injury.
- Fit: The regular fit is designed for adult male foot sizes. Ensure you select the correct UK size for optimal performance and comfort.
Care and Maintenance
- Cleaning After Each Use: After every game or training session, clean your boots. Remove excess mud and debris with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Stud Maintenance: Regularly check and clean the stud threads. Replace worn or damaged metal studs as needed to maintain optimal traction and safety. Replacement studs should be compatible with adidas Adizero RS15 SG boots.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not dry them in direct sunlight, on radiators, or with artificial heat sources, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using a boot bag to protect them during transport.
- Recycled Content Care: While made with recycled materials, these boots still require standard athletic footwear care to ensure longevity.
