Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable during first wear.
This is common with performance boots. Wear them for short periods during training or light play to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. Ensure the lacing is adjusted correctly and consider using the Comfort sockliner if available.
Limited traction on wet or muddy pitches.
These are Firm Ground (FG) boots and are not optimized for very wet or muddy conditions. For such surfaces, consider using appropriate soft ground (SG) or artificial grass (AG) boots.
Lacquer finish on the soleplate appears worn.
The lacquer finish is cosmetic and may wear off during play. This is normal and does not affect the performance, grip, or structural integrity of the soleplate or studs.
Ankle irritation or rubbing.
Ensure the laces are not tied too tightly around the ankle area. Adjust the lacing to find a secure but comfortable fit. Make sure the socks you wear are of appropriate thickness and material to prevent friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Initial Setup:
- Sockliner Choice: Before your first wear, decide between the included SL (Speed) or Comfort sockliner. The SL sockliner offers a more minimalist, direct feel for pure speed, while the Comfort sockliner provides additional cushioning for impact absorption. Insert your chosen sockliner into the boot.
- Lacing: Lace the boots evenly, ensuring the Compression Fit Tunnel Tongue provides a snug, locked-in feel without being overly tight. Adjust as needed during your first few sessions.
Compatibility:
- These are Firm Ground (FG) football boots. They are designed for use on natural grass pitches that are dry or only slightly wet.
- Avoid using FG boots on artificial grass, hard ground, or very wet, muddy pitches, as this can damage the stud configuration and affect performance and durability.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After use, remove excess mud and dirt with a soft brush or a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, ideally in a boot bag to protect them from dust and damage. Ensure they are clean and dry before storing for extended periods.
