Troubleshooting
My child is experiencing blisters or discomfort after playing.
Ensure the boots are properly broken in before extended use. Check sock type (thicker, moisture-wicking socks can help). Re-evaluate lacing technique to avoid overtightening or looseness that causes rubbing. The ergonomic padding aims to reduce irritation, but individual foot shapes vary.
The boots feel slippery on certain pitches.
Confirm the playing surface matches the FGMG soleplate's compatibility (firm natural grass or artificial grass). On excessively wet, muddy natural grass, traction might be reduced compared to specialized soft ground boots. Ensure studs are clean of debris for maximum grip.
The boots are starting to smell unpleasant.
After each use, remove any insoles and allow the boots to air dry completely. You can sprinkle baking soda inside the boots to absorb odors, leaving it overnight and tapping it out. Ensure socks are clean and breathable. Avoid storing boots in sealed bags for prolonged periods.
