FAQs

What type of playing surface are these boots suitable for?

The New Balance Furon Elite FG boots are designed specifically for Firm Ground (FG), meaning they perform best on dry, natural grass pitches.

Will the lacquer on the soleplate wearing off affect performance?

No, the wearing off of the lacquer finish is purely aesthetic and does not impact the performance, durability, or functionality of the boots.

How do I clean my Furon Elite FG boots?

After use, brush off loose dirt. Wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight. Refer to the product label for specific instructions.

Are these boots suitable for wide feet?

The Hypoknit upper is designed to offer a comfortable and adaptable fit. While not explicitly stated as 'wide fit', the knit material can offer some stretch. If you typically require wide-fit footwear, it's recommended to try them on to ensure comfort.

What is the benefit of the Hypoknit upper?

The Hypoknit upper features dual textures and a datamapped design, providing enhanced tactile response for superior ball control, precise dribbling, and versatile striking with both power and finesse.

Can I use these boots on artificial turf?

It is not recommended to use Firm Ground (FG) boots on artificial turf (AG) as it can damage the studs, reduce traction, and may void your warranty. Always use boots appropriate for the specific playing surface.

How does the stud configuration enhance performance?

The T-shape forefoot studs are designed for multi-directional speed and agility, while an additional braking stud at the rearfoot provides enhanced control for sharp movements, stops, and pivots, allowing for faster reactions.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable during play.

Ensure you have the correct size. The Hypoknit upper may require a short break-in period to mold to your foot. Try adjusting the lacing tension, ensuring it's firm but not restrictive. Consider wearing thinner socks initially.

Lack of grip on the pitch.

Verify that you are playing on a firm, natural grass surface. These boots are not designed for artificial turf or excessively soft ground. Clean the soleplate and studs thoroughly after each use to prevent mud build-up from reducing traction.

Lacquer finish on the soleplate is wearing off.

This is a normal aesthetic occurrence during play and does not affect the performance or durability of the boot. Continue to use and care for the boots as normal.

Foot slipping inside the boot during sharp movements.

Ensure your laces are tied securely. The infiniGRIP lining is designed to minimize slippage, but a loose fit can still cause issues. Ensure your socks provide adequate grip and are not overly slick. If possible, replace insoles with new ones if significant wear is present.

Boots develop an odor.

Remove insoles after each use and allow them, along with the boots, to air dry completely. You can use shoe deodorizers or baking soda sprinkled inside overnight (then removed) to absorb odors. Avoid storing boots in damp, enclosed spaces.
