FAQs
Who are these boots designed for?
These boots are designed for kids and junior players who want to improve their attacking play and goal-scoring ability.
What does FGMG stand for?
FGMG stands for Firm Ground / Multi Ground. This means the soleplate is suitable for use on natural grass pitches and artificial grass surfaces.
How do I adjust the fit of the boots?
You can adjust the fit using the standard lace closure. The floating tongue system also allows for easy step-in and can help customize the fit around the ankle and midfoot.
Can I use these boots for indoor football?
No, the FGMG soleplate is not designed for indoor courts. Using them indoors can damage the studs and provide poor traction.
Are these boots made from sustainable materials?
Yes, the boots are made in part with recycled materials, reflecting adidas' commitment to sustainability.
How do I clean the boots after a match?
After each use, remove excess dirt with a brush or dry cloth. If necessary, use a damp cloth. Always air dry them away from direct heat.
What is the benefit of the fold-over tongue?
The fold-over tongue, secured with a strap, creates a clean and larger striking area on the boot, which can help improve the accuracy and power of shots.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight after lacing.
Utilize the floating tongue system to loosen the lacing around the midfoot. Ensure the laces are evenly distributed and not overtightened.
Traction feels inconsistent on the pitch.
Confirm you are using the boots on the appropriate surface (FG/MG). Clean any debris from the studs, as mud or grass can impede their grip.
The fold-over tongue does not stay in place.
Ensure the strap securing the fold-over tongue is fastened correctly. If the elastic becomes stretched, consider the boots may need replacement.
Synthetic upper feels stiff.
New boots may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration to allow the material to conform to your foot shape.

Compatibility: The FGMG (Firm Ground / Multi Ground) soleplate is designed for use on natural grass pitches and artificial grass surfaces. It is not recommended for use on hard ground or indoor courts, as this can damage the studs and affect performance.
Care:
