FAQs
What type of pitch are these boots best suited for?
These boots are designed for Soft Ground (SG) pitches, which are typically wet and muddy natural grass surfaces.
How does the AntiClog technology work?
The AntiClog Traction on the soleplate is a special treatment that helps repel mud, preventing it from sticking and accumulating on the boot, thus maintaining performance and reducing weight.
Can I remove the tongue completely?
Yes, the foldover tongue has a dotted cutting line that allows you to carefully cut it off if you prefer a tongue-less design. This helps preserve the fit if you choose to remove it.
Are the metal studs replaceable?
Yes, the boots feature a mix of fixed and detachable metal studs. The detachable studs can be replaced if they become worn or damaged.
How do I maintain the leather upper?
Clean the leather with a damp cloth after use and apply a dedicated leather conditioner periodically to keep it soft and prevent drying or cracking. Always air dry away from direct heat.
What is the difference between SG Pro and other stud types?
SG Pro (Soft Ground Professional) indicates a configuration optimized for wet, muddy conditions, often featuring longer, metal studs for maximum penetration and grip, along with AntiClog technology in this specific model.
What size should I order?
Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or Nike's official sizing guide. For football boots, it's often recommended to have a snug fit without being uncomfortably tight. Consider the UK sizing provided in the product details.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable
This is common with new leather boots. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in, gradually increasing wear time. Ensure you have the correct fit and consider using appropriate socks.
Mud is still sticking to the soleplate
While AntiClog technology reduces buildup, extreme mud conditions can still cause some adhesion. Ensure you are cleaning the boots thoroughly after each use. Check that no debris is lodged in the stud sockets.
Detachable studs won't stay in
Ensure the studs are the correct type for the boot and are fully inserted and twisted to lock into place. Check the stud sockets for any damage or debris that might prevent a secure fit.
Leather feels dry or cracked
The leather may be dehydrated. Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for sports footwear. Ensure boots are dried naturally and away from heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Unbox the boots and inspect the studs. If detachable studs are included, ensure they are securely fastened for the desired configuration (usually the longest studs for maximum grip on very soft ground).
For players who wish to customize their look, identify the dotted cutting line on the foldover tongue. Carefully cut along this line if you prefer a tongue-less design. Ensure the cut is clean to maintain comfort and fit.
Compatibility:
These boots are specifically designed for Soft Ground (SG) pitches, meaning wet, muddy natural grass surfaces.
They are not recommended for use on Firm Ground (FG), Artificial Grass (AG), or Hard Ground (HG) as this can damage the studs and affect performance.
Care:
Cleaning: After each use on a muddy pitch, clean the boots thoroughly. Remove excess mud with a soft brush or cloth. Use a slightly damp cloth to wipe down the leather and soleplate. Avoid harsh detergents or high-pressure water.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and retain their shape. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can dry out and crack the leather.
Studs: Clean the studs regularly. For detachable metal studs, remove them periodically, clean them, and the stud holes, then reattach securely. Apply a light lubricant to metal studs if stored for extended periods to prevent rust.
