The adidas RS 15 SG Rugby Boots are built for performance where speed and precision are paramount. On soft, natural grass pitches, the specialized stud configuration provides exceptional grip, allowing players to accelerate rapidly, make sharp cuts, and maintain balance during scrums and rucks. The lightweight synthetic forefoot is crucial for backs or any player needing to outpace opponents, ensuring your feet feel fast and unburdened.
For kickers, the asymmetrical lacing system is a standout feature. By shifting the lacing off-center, it creates a larger, cleaner strike zone on the instep, which can significantly improve the accuracy and power of kicks, whether for conversions, penalties, or tactical clearances. The foam cushioning in the heel and the padded collar ensure comfort throughout the game, minimizing fatigue during explosive sprints, jumps, and tackles, allowing you to maintain peak performance for longer periods.
Lacing: Before your first use, ensure the asymmetrical laces are threaded securely. When lacing, pull firmly but comfortably from the toe up, securing a snug fit without over-tightening. The unique lacing pattern is designed to conform to your foot for optimal feel.
Break-In: Like all new footwear, a short break-in period during practice sessions is recommended to allow the boots to mold to your foot shape and enhance comfort before competitive play.
These boots are specifically designed for soft ground (SG) pitches. This means natural grass fields that are typically wet, muddy, or otherwise soft, where longer studs are required for optimal traction. Using them on firm ground, artificial turf, or hard surfaces will not only compromise performance but can also damage the boots' studs and potentially cause injury.
To ensure the longevity and performance of your adidas RS 15 SG Rugby Boots, follow these care instructions:
Cleaning: After each use, especially on muddy pitches, wipe down the boots with a damp cloth to remove dirt and mud. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Never force dry your boots using direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the synthetic materials and glues. Instead, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight.
Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid leaving them in a damp kit bag for extended periods, as this can lead to odor and material degradation.
Stud Maintenance: Regularly check the studs for wear or damage. While the studs are generally fixed for SG boots, ensuring they are clean and free of debris will maintain optimal grip.
