The adidas Kakari RS SG Rugby Boots are specifically engineered to empower rugby forwards. The RS15 speedboot soleplate, combined with eight removable metal studs, delivers explosive acceleration off the mark, crucial for quick breakdowns and powerful carries. In the scrum, the deep bite of the studs into soft turf provides unwavering traction and stability, allowing you to maintain a strong bind and drive effectively.
During rucks and mauls, the reinforced synthetic and Fusionskin leather upper in key areas offers essential protection against impacts and abrasions, helping to prevent injuries while remaining lightweight enough not to hinder movement. The internal support system ensures your foot remains secure and stable, giving you the confidence to engage in tackles, chase down kicks, and dive on loose balls without fear of losing footing.
The streamlined design prevents unnecessary bulk, enabling swift changes in direction and sustained energy throughout the game. The Fusionskin leather upper adapts to your foot for a personalized, secure fit, enhancing both comfort and control. These boots excel in muddy, wet conditions where maximum grip is paramount.
Stud Check: Before your first use and before every match or training session, ensure all eight metal studs are securely tightened into the soleplate. Use a stud wrench for this purpose. Loose studs can affect performance and pose a safety risk.
Lacing: Utilize the lace closure system to achieve a snug, supportive fit. Ensure laces are tied securely to prevent slippage during play.
Ground Type: These boots are designed exclusively for soft ground (SG) pitches, which are typically muddy or wet. They are not recommended for firm ground (FG), artificial grass (AG), or indoor surfaces.
Player Type: Ideal for powerful rugby forwards (e.g., props, hookers, second rows, back rows) who require maximum traction, stability, and protection.
Sizing: Available in standard UK adult male sizing. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.
Cleaning: After each use, remove excess mud and debris using a soft brush or cloth. Wipe the synthetic upper and Fusionskin leather with a damp cloth. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the materials and cause the leather to crack or stiffen.
Stud Maintenance: Regularly inspect studs for wear and tear. Replace worn or damaged metal studs promptly to maintain optimal traction and prevent injury.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using boot trees can help maintain their shape.
Leather Care: For the Fusionskin leather upper, consider using a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent drying.
