Product Information
Full details
These adidas Kids F50 Elite FG football boots are designed for young players who want to maximize acceleration and agility on firm ground pitches. Offering a lightweight feel and enhanced ball control, their primary caveat is that the lacquer finish on the soleplate may wear off during play, though this does not impact performance. Key features include a streamlined Fibertouch upper, Sprintplate 360 soleplate for quick cuts, and a Compression Fit Tunnel Tongue for a secure fit, with two sockliner options for customized comfort and speed.

FAQs
Are these boots suitable for artificial grass pitches?
These boots are designed for Firm Ground (FG) pitches, which are typically natural grass. While they may be used on some artificial surfaces, performance and durability may be compromised. For artificial grass, boots with AG (Artificial Grass) specific studs are recommended.
What is the difference between the two included sockliners?
The SL (Speed) sockliner is designed to be lightweight and offer minimal cushioning for a faster feel and maximum responsiveness. The Comfort sockliner provides additional padding for enhanced impact absorption and a plusher feel during wear.
How should I clean my F50 Elite boots?
Clean with a soft brush or dry cloth after use. For tougher dirt, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking the boots or using harsh cleaning chemicals.
Will the wear on the soleplate's lacquer affect the boot's performance?
No, the wearing off of the lacquer finish on the soleplate is a normal cosmetic occurrence during play and does not affect the performance, grip, or structural integrity of the boot.
Who are the professional athletes that endorse the F50 range?
The F50 range is endorsed by top players including Lionel Messi, Mohamed Salah, Son Heung-min, Florian Wirtz, Rafael Leao, Jule Brand, Linda Caicedo, and Trinity Rodman.
What does 'FG' mean in the product name?
FG stands for 'Firm Ground,' indicating that the boots are designed for optimal traction and performance on natural, firm grass football pitches.
Are these boots made from sustainable materials?
Yes, the boots are made with at least 20% recycled materials as part of adidas's commitment to sustainability.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct sockliner (SL for snug fit, Comfort for cushioning). Try adjusting the lacing pattern, ensuring it's snug but not overly tight. Allow for a short break-in period if the boots are new.
Poor traction on the pitch
Confirm that the boots are being used on the intended Firm Ground (FG) surface. Check for excessive mud or debris on the studs, which can be cleaned with a brush. The studs themselves may show wear over time; consider replacement if significantly degraded.
Lacquer on the soleplate is peeling/worn off
This is a cosmetic effect due to play and does not impact the boot's performance or grip. Continue using the boots as normal.
Stitching appears to be coming loose
Inspect the stitching carefully. Minor fraying at the very end of a seam is normal, but significant unraveling may indicate a defect. Contact customer support if a major seam integrity issue is present.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Sockliner Selection: Choose between the included Speed (SL) sockliner for maximum responsiveness or the Comfort sockliner for added cushioning. Insert your chosen sockliner into the boot.
- Lacing: Utilize the lace closure to secure the boot. The Compression Fit Tunnel Tongue is designed to provide a snug, adaptive fit. Adjust lacing to achieve optimal lockdown without discomfort.
Compatibility:
- Surface: These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) football pitches, typically natural grass that is dry and firm. They may not perform optimally or could be prone to excessive wear on artificial turf, hard ground, or very wet/muddy pitches.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the boots in water.
- Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never place them near direct heat sources (radiators, heaters) or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, ideally in a boot bag, to protect them from dust and moisture.
- Lacquer Finish: Be aware that the lacquer finish on the soleplate is decorative and may wear off during play. This is normal and does not affect the performance or structural integrity of the boot.
