This guide is for football players seeking enhanced control and comfort on firm ground pitches. The Nike Tiempo Legend X Elite FG offers an effortless touch and zero break-in time thanks to its innovative FlyTouch+ upper, empowering confident and decisive play. While excelling in precision, remember these boots are specifically engineered for optimal performance on firm natural grass surfaces.
FlyTouch+ Engineered Upper: Softer than natural leather, this advanced material provides a close, comfortable feel on the ball, resists overstretching, and requires zero break-in time.
Moulded Foam Pods: Strategically placed foam pods are smoothed into the boot's lines, dampening your touch for precise control.
3D Microdot Touch Zones: These zones are integrated into the upper to amplify ball control, allowing for finer adjustments and greater command.
All Conditions Control (ACC): Nike's ACC technology ensures consistent, immaculate touch and reliable performance whether playing in dry or wet weather conditions.
Integrated Flyknit Collar: At the heel, a Flyknit collar combined with interior padding provides a secure, locked-in fit and minimizes irritation during play.
Firm Ground (FG) Soleplate: Designed specifically for natural grass pitches, the soleplate features circular studs at the forefoot and blades at the toe and heel, boosting agility and enabling fast, decisive transitions.

The Nike Tiempo Legend 10 Elite FG boots are crafted for players who demand composure and control across the entire pitch. The FlyTouch+ upper ensures that from the moment you put them on, you experience a soft, close feel on the ball, enabling confident dribbles and precise passes. For instance, you'll feel equipped for intricate 'shimmies' in your own six-yard box, delivering accurate passes under pressure in midfield, and executing perfect finesse shots up front. The 3D microdot touch zones and moulded foam pods work in tandem to amplify your control, allowing you to manipulate the ball with greater precision. Thanks to All Conditions Control (ACC), your touch remains immaculate regardless of rain or shine, giving you a consistent advantage. The FG soleplate, with its combination of circular and bladed studs, provides excellent traction and agility, allowing for quick changes in direction and explosive acceleration on firm natural grass, making decisive transitions on the field feel seamless.
Lacing: Ensure boots are laced snugly but comfortably to optimize the secure fit provided by the integrated Flyknit collar. The zero break-in time of the FlyTouch+ upper means they should feel comfortable from the first wear.
Fit: The integrated Flyknit collar and internal padding are designed to keep your foot locked in. Adjust lacing to prevent any unwanted movement inside the boot without causing discomfort.
Playing Surface: These boots are Firm Ground (FG) specific. They are designed for optimal performance and traction on natural grass pitches that are firm, but not excessively hard or waterlogged. Using them on artificial grass (AG), soft ground (SG), or indoor surfaces may compromise performance, cause damage to the studs, and potentially void any warranty.
Cleaning: After each use, remove excess mud and debris with a soft brush or cloth. Wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid using harsh cleaning agents or abrasive materials.
Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them directly on radiators, in direct sunlight, or use a hairdryer, as extreme heat can damage the materials.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place, ideally with boot trees or crumpled newspaper inside to maintain their shape and absorb any residual moisture. Keep them away from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
