FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the TechLeather upper?
The TechLeather upper provides a buttery soft feel for enhanced comfort and a consistent, natural touch on the ball, crucial for control during play.
Are these boots suitable for all types of football pitches?
No, these are Firm Ground (FG) boots. They are designed for natural grass pitches. They are not recommended for artificial grass, hard ground, or indoor surfaces.
How do I ensure the best fit?
The boots feature premium heel padding and an accommodating lace closure. Lace them securely, ensuring a snug fit without excessive tightness. The leather will also conform to your foot shape over time.
What is the purpose of the foldover tongue?
The foldover tongue is a heritage-inspired design element that helps create a cleaner surface for striking the ball and contributes to the boot's classic aesthetic.
How often should I condition the leather?
It's recommended to condition the leather periodically, especially if you play frequently or in dry conditions, to maintain its suppleness and prevent cracking.
Can I wash these boots with water?
It is best to clean the boots with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid submerging them in water or using harsh cleaning agents, as this can damage the materials.
What is the main advantage of the stud configuration?
The conical studs on a full-length plate are designed to offer balanced traction and agility, allowing players to move with confidence in any direction on firm ground.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight after first wear.
The TechLeather will naturally stretch and conform to your foot with use. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase playing time. Ensure laces are not over-tightened.
Traction seems insufficient on wet grass.
Firm Ground (FG) studs are optimized for a balance of grip and agility. For very wet or muddy conditions, consider boots with specific soft ground (SG) studs if available for your needs.
Stitching appears to be loosening.
Inspect the stitching carefully. If it's a minor fray, it may not affect performance. If significant stitches are coming undone, cease use and contact customer support.
Leather feels stiff after drying.
This can happen if the boots were dried too quickly or exposed to heat. Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for sports footwear to restore suppleness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These football boots are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they are laced securely for a snug fit.
Compatibility: Designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces. Use exclusively on natural grass pitches. Avoid use on artificial grass, hard ground, or indoor courts, as this can damage the studs and affect performance.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or solvents.
- Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, away from direct sunlight.
- Leather Conditioning: Periodically, use a specialized leather conditioner to keep the TechLeather supple and prevent cracking, especially if playing in dry conditions.
