FAQs
What does 'FG' mean on the boots?
FG stands for Firm Ground. It indicates that the stud configuration is designed for optimal performance and traction on natural grass or slightly firmer artificial surfaces.
Can these boots be used on artificial turf?
Yes, these FG boots can be used on modern artificial grass pitches with shorter blades. However, they are not ideal for older, harder artificial turf types or very long, soft artificial grass, where specific AG (Artificial Ground) boots might be more suitable.
How do I clean the inside of the boots?
For the inside, remove the sockliner if possible and wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Ensure the sockliner is fully dry before reinserting it. Allow the interior to air dry completely.
What is the main benefit of the TPU plate?
The TPU plate provides enhanced stability and support during dynamic movements like cutting and accelerating, contributing to the boot's overall performance and durability.
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
The Razor 1.5 Jr Youth FG boots feature a standard fit. While the lace-up design allows for some adjustment, they may not be ideal for children with significantly wide feet. Trying them on or consulting sizing charts is recommended.
How does the cushioning help?
The cushioned EVA sockliner absorbs impact during play, providing comfort and reducing stress on the young player's feet and joints, especially on firm surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Loosen the laces and re-tie, ensuring a more relaxed fit. If discomfort persists, the size may not be suitable. Consider trying a different size or width if available.
Traction is poor on the pitch.
Ensure the boots are being used on the appropriate surface (firm ground). Clean the studs to remove any caked-on mud or grass, as this can impede traction.
Laces fray or break easily.
Replace laces with a more durable set. Avoid excessively tightening the laces, which can put undue stress on them.
Synthetic upper appears scuffed or damaged.
Minor scuffs can be normal wear and tear. For cleaning, use a damp cloth. Significant damage may indicate heavy use or impact.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These boots come ready to wear. Ensure a proper fit by lacing them up snugly but comfortably, adjusting the tension to your child's preference. The lace-up front allows for a customized fit.
Compatibility: The FG (Firm Ground) soleplate is designed for use on natural grass pitches that are well-maintained and relatively firm, or on modern, shorter-bladed artificial grass surfaces. *Avoid using these boots on soft ground (SG) pitches with muddy or uneven surfaces, as the stud configuration will not provide adequate grip and may lead to slips.* They are not recommended for indoor courts or hard artificial turf that may cause excessive wear or discomfort.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt and mud with a soft brush or a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing the boots with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, to protect them from dust and moisture. Ensure they are clean and dry before storing for extended periods.
