FAQs
Are these boots suitable for all types of artificial grass?
The FG/MG soleplate is designed for both firm ground and multi-ground surfaces, which typically includes artificial grass. However, performance can vary depending on the specific type and condition of the artificial turf. They are generally more suitable than firm-ground-only boots.
How does the Strikeprint feature improve play?
The Strikeprint is a textured pattern on the upper designed to increase friction between the boot and the ball. This enhanced grip allows for more precise ball control, improved swerve on shots, and greater accuracy in passing.
Can these boots be used for running or training off the pitch?
These boots are specifically designed for football play on firm or multi-ground pitches. Using them for general running or training on hard surfaces can damage the soleplate and studs, compromising their performance and longevity for football.
What does 'FG MG' mean for the soleplate?
FG MG stands for Firm Ground / Multi-Ground. This indicates that the outsole is engineered to provide reliable traction on both traditional firm natural grass pitches and modern artificial grass surfaces.
How much recycled material is used in these boots?
The boots are made in part with recycled materials, containing at least 20% recycled content in the upper and other components, contributing to adidas's commitment to sustainability.
What is the difference between regular fit and other fits?
A regular fit is designed to accommodate a standard range of foot shapes. Unlike a snug or wide fit, it aims for a comfortable balance for most players. Proper lacing is key to achieving the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure across the foot. If the tightness persists, consider if the regular fit is suitable for your foot shape. Some synthetic uppers may require a short break-in period.
Traction is inconsistent on wet grass
Ensure the studs are clean and free from debris. The FG/MG soleplate is designed for various conditions, but extreme wetness on certain pitch types might affect grip. Check for wear on the studs.
Strikeprint texture wearing off
The Strikeprint is designed for grip and will naturally show wear over time with heavy use. Continue to clean the boots regularly to maintain optimal performance. Significant loss of texture may indicate the boots have reached the end of their lifespan.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These boots are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they are laced correctly to achieve a secure and comfortable fit.
Compatibility: The FG/MG (Firm Ground/Multi-Ground) soleplate is designed for use on natural grass pitches that may be slightly wet, as well as artificial grass surfaces. Avoid using these boots on hard, artificial surfaces like concrete or asphalt, 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 tougher dirt, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Always air dry the boots at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a breathable shoe bag, to maintain their shape and condition.
