Product Information

Full details

The Adidas Hockey Youngstar 2 is a performance-focused field hockey shoe designed specifically for young athletes who play on both water-based and sand-dressed pitches. Its key benefit is a combination of advanced cushioning and superior traction, ensuring comfort and stability during high-intensity matches and training sessions; however, users should note that the shoe is optimized specifically for field hockey pitch surfaces and may show increased wear if used frequently on pavement or concrete.

FAQs

Can I wear these for running on the road?

No, these shoes are specifically engineered for synthetic hockey pitches and the outsole will wear down prematurely if used on pavement or tarmac.

Are these shoes waterproof?

They are designed to be breathable, which means they are not fully waterproof, though they handle moisture well on wet-turf pitches.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to your UK shoe size; these are standard junior sizing, but we recommend leaving a small amount of room for growth and the thickness of hockey socks.

Are these suitable for indoor hockey?

While they provide good grip, check with your local facility guidelines, as some indoor halls require specific non-marking soles.

How often should I replace these shoes?

Replace them when the dimples on the outsole appear significantly worn or smooth, or when the cushioning in the midsole no longer feels supportive.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone during gameplay

Use a double knot or ensure the laces are threaded tightly through the top eyelet for extra security.

Accumulation of sand in the grip pattern

Use a stiff plastic brush to clear debris from the dimples after every training session to maintain maximum traction.

Odour buildup

Remove the insoles after play to allow them to dry independently and use an anti-bacterial shoe spray if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Youngstar 2 shoes last throughout the season, follow these steps for maintenance:

  1. Fit Check: Ensure the laces are tightened securely before every use, but not so tight that they restrict circulation. If the shoe feels loose, ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks designed for moisture-wicking.
  2. Surface Compatibility: Use exclusively on artificial grass, water-based, or sand-dressed hockey pitches to preserve the integrity of the rubber outsole dimples.
  3. Cleaning: After play, brush off excess mud or sand from the outsole using a soft brush. If they become very dirty, clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  4. Storage: Always air-dry the shoes in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources (like radiators), which can cause materials to degrade or lose their shape.
