The main benefit is enhanced speed and agility, combined with excellent ball control, making it ideal for attacking players.
Can I use these boots on artificial grass?
Yes, the MultiGround (FG MG) soleplate is designed to perform on both firm natural grass and some artificial grass surfaces.
How do I clean the boots?
Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt after play. Allow them to air dry away from heat. Do not machine wash.

What does 'FG MG' mean?

How does the textured upper help?
The allover texturing on the upper enhances grip on the ball, aiding in precise dribbling, passing, and close control.
What is the warranty period for these boots?
Please refer to the retailer's or Nike's official website for current warranty information, as it can vary by region and purchase date.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Wear the boots with thin socks for short periods indoors to allow the synthetic upper to mold to your foot shape. Gradually increase wear time. Ensure correct sizing was chosen.
Traction seems insufficient on wet grass
The FG MG soleplate is designed for firm surfaces. On very wet or soft pitches, grip may be reduced. Clean studs of mud for best performance.
Texturing wearing off quickly
Normal wear and tear on the textured upper may occur with frequent or intense use. Focus on maintaining clean surfaces and proper care to prolong their condition.
Inner sole is uncomfortable
Ensure the cushioned insole is properly positioned. If persistent discomfort occurs, consider using aftermarket insoles compatible with football boots.
