The adidas Predator Elite Tongue SG football boots are engineered to maximize performance for players in key attacking and midfield roles. The HybridTouch upper provides a soft, responsive touch on the ball, crucial for dribbling and close control in tight spaces. When striking, the Strikeskin rubber fins create additional friction, allowing players to generate increased swerve and accuracy, helping to 'hunt down every chance' for goals. The foldover tongue not only secures the fit but also integrates more seamlessly with the foot, offering uninterrupted contact with the ball for enhanced control and responsiveness during passes and shots. On soft ground pitches, the ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate with its multidirectional traction ensures you maintain agility for quick changes of direction, speed for explosive sprints, and the stability needed to stay balanced during powerful strikes and tackles. The Primeknit collar offers a snug, supportive fit, ensuring the boot moves as one with your foot, critical during dynamic play.
Lacing: Utilize the traditional lace closure system to secure the boots firmly to your feet. Ensure an even tension across the laces for a comfortable yet locked-in fit.
Break-in Period: Like all high-performance football boots, a short break-in period may be required. Wear them for light training sessions or walks before full-intensity matches to allow the materials to mold to your foot shape.
Playing Surface: These boots are specifically designed for Soft Ground (SG) pitches. They are optimized for natural grass fields that are wet or muddy, where longer, conical studs can penetrate the surface for maximum grip.
User: The boots are designed for adult players and feature a regular fit, making them suitable for a wide range of foot types. They are designated as Unisex.
Cleaning: After each use, especially on soft ground, clean the boots thoroughly. Remove excess mud and debris from the upper and soleplate using a soft brush or cloth.
Wipe Down: Wipe the HybridTouch upper with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, which can damage the material.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can cause the materials to crack or stiffen.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using a boot bag can protect them from dust and damage.
Lacquer Wear Note: Be aware that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate may wear off during play. This is a normal cosmetic occurrence and will not affect the performance or durability of the product.
