The adidas Predator Pro Tongue FG boots are built for players who dictate the game from midfield or upfront, aiming for precise passes and powerful shots.
On the pitch, the Strikeskin grip elements combined with the pronounced touch grooves on the HybridTouch upper mean you'll experience a significant improvement in ball manipulation. This translates to:
Pinpoint Passing: The enhanced grip allows for cleaner strikes, enabling you to deliver more accurate through-balls and crosses.
Increased Swerve and Power: When shooting, the rubber fins provide the necessary friction to generate more swerve, making your shots harder for goalkeepers to predict, while also aiding in powerful, direct strikes.
Superior Dribbling: The responsive upper ensures the ball stays glued to your foot, allowing for intricate dribbling in tight spaces.
The ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate with its specially shaped studs ensures optimal performance on firm natural grass. You'll benefit from:
Explosive Acceleration: The stud configuration promotes quick bursts of speed off the mark.
Agile Movements: Multidirectional traction allows for sharp cuts and turns, crucial for beating defenders.
Stable Footing: Provides a secure platform for balance during quick changes in direction and powerful shot execution.
The foldover tongue contributes to a streamlined and integrated feel, reducing distractions and providing a clean strike zone. The lightweight nature of the HybridTouch upper ensures comfort throughout matches and training sessions, letting you focus on your game. These boots are ideal for players who want to feel connected to the ball and perform optimally on firm, dry pitches.
The adidas Predator Pro Tongue FG boots feature a standard lace closure system.
Lace Up: Ensure the laces are tightened evenly from the toe to the ankle for a snug, secure fit.
Adjust Tongue: Position the foldover tongue comfortably over the laces and ensure its strap is secured (if applicable) for an integrated feel.
Break-In Period: Like most football boots, these may require a short break-in period to mold to your foot shape. Wear them during light training sessions before competitive play.
Pitch Type: These boots are designed exclusively for firm ground (FG) pitches. This includes natural grass fields that are dry and well-maintained. They are not recommended for artificial turf (AG), soft ground (SG), or indoor surfaces, as this can affect performance and durability.
User: Designed for adult players.
Gender: Classified as Unisex, suitable for all genders.
Size: Available in various adult UK sizes, such as UK 9.5.
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your boots:
Clean After Use: Immediately after playing, wipe off dirt and mud using a damp cloth. Avoid harsh brushes that can damage the upper material.
Remove Insole: If insoles are removable, take them out to air dry separately to prevent odor and moisture buildup.
Air Dry: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators), which can dry out and crack the materials.
Stuff with Paper: Stuff the boots with newspaper or paper towels to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape while drying.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place, away from direct heat and light. A boot bag can protect them during transport.
Avoid Submerging: Do not submerge the entire boot in water for cleaning.
