Setup: - Break-in Period: For optimal comfort and to allow the boot to mold to your foot, wear them for a few short sessions before full-intensity play. - Lacing: Experiment with lacing techniques to find the most secure and comfortable fit for your foot shape. Compatibility: - Playing Surface: These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) pitches. This refers to natural grass fields that are dry or slightly damp. - Avoid Other Surfaces: Using FG boots on artificial grass (AG), hard ground (HG), or indoor courts is not recommended, as it can compromise performance, lead to premature wear of the studs, and potentially void any warranty. Care: - Cleaning After Use: After each use, gently remove mud and debris from the upper and soleplate using a soft brush or a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals. - Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials. - Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place, ideally with boot trees or crumpled newspaper inside to help maintain their shape.
