FAQs
What type of ground are these Canterbury Stampade boots best suited for?
These boots are specifically designed for soft ground (SG) pitches, which are typically natural grass fields that are wet, muddy, or yielding.
Can I use these boots for sports other than rugby?
Yes, while ideal for rugby, their excellent traction and support on soft ground make them suitable for other field sports like football (soccer) when played on similar surfaces.
How should I clean my Canterbury Stampade boots after a game?
After each use, remove excess mud and debris with a damp cloth or soft brush. Pay attention to the studs. Do not machine wash. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources, possibly stuffing them with newspaper to absorb moisture.
What size are these boots?
This particular model is a UK size 9. Please ensure this is the correct size for your foot to achieve optimal performance and comfort.
Are these boots suitable for artificial turf?
No, these Soft Ground (SG) boots are not recommended for artificial turf. The stud configuration is designed for natural soft ground, and using them on artificial surfaces can damage the boots and potentially cause injury.
How often should I check or replace the studs?
You should regularly inspect your studs for wear, damage, or looseness after each use. Replace worn or damaged studs as needed to maintain optimal grip and prevent injury.
Troubleshooting
Poor grip on soft ground.
Ensure all studs are present and clean. If studs are worn down, replace them. Confirm you are using the boots on suitable soft ground conditions.
Boots feel uncomfortable or cause blisters.
Verify the boots are the correct size (UK 9 for this model) and laced properly. Allow for a break-in period. Consider wearing thicker sports socks or applying anti-blister balm.
Boots seem to be wearing out quickly.
Ensure boots are only used on appropriate soft ground surfaces. Using them on hard ground or artificial turf can accelerate wear. Follow recommended cleaning and drying procedures to maintain material integrity.
Boots retain a strong odor.
Thoroughly clean and dry boots after each use. Consider using boot deodorizers or placing dryer sheets inside when storing to absorb moisture and odors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Lacing: Ensure boots are laced firmly from toe to ankle. A snug fit is crucial for support and to prevent movement within the boot, which can cause blisters.
Break-In Period: Like most new athletic footwear, these boots may require a short break-in period. Wear them for light training sessions before a full match to allow them to conform to your foot.
Compatibility
Ground Type: These boots are specifically designed for soft ground surfaces. This includes natural grass pitches that are wet, muddy, or otherwise soft.
Sports: Ideal for rugby, football (soccer) on soft pitches, and other field sports where significant traction is needed on natural, yielding surfaces.
Incompatible Surfaces: Avoid using these boots on hard ground, artificial turf, or indoor surfaces, as this can damage the studs and reduce the boots' effectiveness and lifespan.
Care
Immediate Cleaning: After each use, especially on muddy pitches, wipe off all excess mud and debris using a damp cloth or soft brush.
Stud Cleaning: Pay close attention to the studs, ensuring they are free of mud and grass to maintain optimal grip for the next use.
Drying: Never force-dry your boots with direct heat (e.g., radiators, hairdryers) as this can damage materials. Instead, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using a boot bag can protect them during transport.
Inspection: Regularly inspect studs for wear and tear. Replace damaged or worn studs to maintain traction and prevent injury.
