FAQs

What does FG stand for on these football boots?

FG stands for Firm Ground. These boots are designed for optimal traction on natural, dry grass pitches.

Can I use these boots on artificial turf?

It is not recommended. These boots are specifically designed for firm ground. Using them on artificial turf can reduce performance and may damage the studs and soleplate.

How do I clean my New Balance Furon Elite FG V8 boots?

After play, remove dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat.

What is the purpose of the dual texture on the Hypoknit upper?

The dual textures provide different sensations on the ball, aiding in precise dribbling and allowing for adjustments in power or finesse when striking the ball.

Will the peeling lacquer on the sole affect my game?

No, the peeling lacquer is a cosmetic issue that can occur with wear and does not impact the performance or structural integrity of the boot.

Who are these boots endorsed by?

The Furon range is endorsed by professional footballers such as Bukayo Saka, Eberechi Eze, Michelle Cooper, and Jeremie Frimpong.

What is the benefit of the offset lacing system?

The offset lacing system, combined with an extended strike zone, helps to optimize the area of the boot that contacts the ball, leading to more consistent and powerful strikes.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable

Wear the boots indoors with appropriate socks for a break-in period. Adjust lacing to find a more comfortable pressure distribution. Ensure the correct size has been purchased.

Traction feels insufficient on wet grass

These boots are designed for firm ground. For wet or muddy conditions, consider a different stud configuration (e.g., SG - Soft Ground).

Lacquer on soleplate is peeling

This is a cosmetic wear that occurs during play and does not affect the boot's performance or structural integrity. Continue using as normal.

Inside of boot feels slippery

Ensure the performance sockliner is correctly positioned. The infiniGRIP lining is designed to minimize slippage; if persistent, check for unusual moisture inside the boot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced agility and speed due to specialized stud design.
  • Improved ball control and accuracy from the dual-texture Hypoknit upper.
  • Comfortable and secure fit with the low-profile collar and infiniGRIP sockliner.
  • Optimized strike zone for better boot-to-ball connection.
  • Lightweight construction for quick movements.

Cons

  • Lacquer finish on the soleplate may wear off during play.
  • Designed specifically for firm ground; performance may be reduced on other surfaces.
  • May require a break-in period for optimal comfort.
  • Low-profile collar might not provide enough ankle support for players who prefer more structured boots.
  • Offset lacing system may take some getting used to for some players.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Try On: Always try on football boots indoors before playing on grass to ensure a comfortable fit.
  2. Lacing: Adjust the offset lacing to achieve a snug and secure fit across the midfoot.

Compatibility:

  • These are Firm Ground (FG) football boots. They are designed for use on natural, dry grass pitches.
  • Avoid using these boots on artificial grass (AG), hard ground, or very wet/muddy pitches, as this can affect performance and potentially damage the studs and soleplate.

Care:

  • Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt using a soft brush or damp cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or solvents.
  • Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources (radiators, heaters) as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, to maintain their shape and condition.
