The Canterbury Speed Infinite Rugby Boots are built for peak performance on soft ground. Their lightweight synthetic upper combined with a tighter fit means you can accelerate quicker and change direction with minimal energy loss, crucial for backline players and agile forwards. The mixed stud configuration (6 conical metal and 3 rhombus TPU) is the cornerstone of their performance on soft pitches, providing aggressive grip to prevent slipping during scrums, rucks, and rapid sprints. This specialized traction gives you confidence in wet and muddy conditions, allowing for explosive take-offs and stable footing. The upper grip texture is a significant advantage for kickers, offering better purchase on the ball for increased precision and power in penalties, conversions, and tactical kicks. The neoprene collar and full lace fastening work together to provide a comfortable, secure fit, reducing the risk of chafing and ensuring your foot stays locked in throughout the match, contributing to overall stability and reducing the chance of injury.
Lacing: Ensure the boots are fully laced through all eyelets. Pull the laces firmly and evenly to achieve a snug, secure fit around your foot, then tie them with a double knot to prevent loosening during play. The tighter fit is intentional for performance.
Break-in: As these boots are designed for a tighter fit, a short break-in period may be beneficial. Wear them for short sessions before full matches to allow the materials to conform to your foot.
These Canterbury Speed Infinite Rugby Boots are specifically designed for soft ground (SG) surfaces. This includes natural grass pitches that are wet, muddy, or soft. They are not recommended for use on firm ground (FG), artificial turf (AG), or indoor surfaces, as this can damage the studs, compromise grip, and potentially lead to injury. Always check the playing surface before use.
Cleaning: After each use, remove excess mud and debris from the upper and sole. Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth. For stubborn mud, a soft brush can be used. Avoid using harsh cleaning agents or abrasive materials.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight, tumble dryers) as this can damage the synthetic materials and glues.
Stud Maintenance: Regularly inspect the metal studs for wear, damage, or looseness. Tighten any loose studs before each use. Replace significantly worn or damaged studs with compatible soft ground replacements to maintain optimal performance and safety.
Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Keeping them stuffed with newspaper can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
Refer to Label: Always refer to the care label provided inside your boots for specific, detailed care instructions.
