FAQs
Can I use these boots on artificial grass?
These boots are designed specifically for firm ground (natural grass). Using them on artificial grass may cause premature wear.
How do I maintain the Move Foam cushioning?
The cushioning is integrated into the footbed; simply air dry the boots after use to keep the foam fresh.
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
The SKX_2 Academy features a standard athletic fit; if you have particularly wide feet, you may find the initial fit snug.
What is the best way to store the boots?
Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the structural integrity of the upper material.
Do these boots run true to size?
Yes, they are consistent with standard UK sizing for football boots.
Troubleshooting
Excessive dirt buildup on the upper
Use a soft brush to remove loose debris, followed by a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe the surface clean.
Boots feel slippery on wet grass
Ensure the studs are clean of any clogged mud, as the traction pattern is designed to bite into the surface when free of debris.
Material stiffness when new
Wear the boots for shorter training sessions initially to allow the material to conform to your foot shape naturally.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure peak performance, verify that the SKX_2 Academy is used strictly on natural firm ground grass pitches. Use on harder surfaces like concrete or asphalt will cause premature wear to the TPU plate and studs. After each use, remove loose mud using a soft-bristled brush. Wipe down the upper with a damp cloth to maintain the integrity of the moulding and keep the material breathable. Allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators or direct sunlight, to prevent the foam and synthetic materials from warping or degrading.
