Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. The leather will naturally stretch slightly and mold to your foot over time with regular wear. Consider removing the padded tongue if it adds too much pressure.
Traction feels insufficient on pitch
Confirm you are playing on a suitable firm ground surface. If the pitch is slightly soft or wet, traction may be reduced. These boots are optimized for dry to slightly damp firm ground.
Leather upper appears dry or stiff
Apply a suitable leather conditioner specifically designed for sports footwear. This will help maintain the leather's suppleness and prevent cracking. Ensure boots are clean before conditioning.
Stitching appears to be coming loose
Inspect the stitching carefully. Minor fraying can sometimes be trimmed. For significant structural issues, cease use and consult with the retailer or manufacturer regarding warranty.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Lacing: Securely lace the boots using the provided system. Adjust tightness for a snug, comfortable fit. The regular fit accommodates most foot shapes.
- Tongue Adjustment: Decide whether to use the padded foldover tongue. If using, ensure it lies flat and comfortably. If preferred, the tongue can be removed for a lower profile and different feel.
Compatibility:
- These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces. This typically includes natural grass pitches that are firm and dry.
- They are *not recommended* for artificial grass, hard, or very wet/muddy pitches, as the stud configuration may not provide adequate traction or could lead to discomfort.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush. Wipe down the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the boots.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the leather and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, to maintain their shape and protect the materials.
