The adidas F50 Elite FG football boots are crafted for adult players who demand explosive speed and exceptional agility on firm natural ground. Co-designed with Lionel Messi, these boots deliver a responsive feel and superior ball control, enabling quick directional changes and rapid acceleration. While the soleplate's lacquer finish may wear cosmetically with use, this is a normal characteristic that does not impact the boot's high performance.

The adidas F50 Elite FG boots are engineered for players who rely on speed, agility, and precision to dominate the game. On firm ground pitches, the Sprintframe 360 soleplate excels, providing game-changing traction and explosive acceleration that allows you to tear down the wing or quickly close down opponents. The rounded midfoot studs are specifically designed for those critical, quick cuts that can leave defenders behind.
The HybridTouch upper, featuring Sprintweb 3D texture, ensures an exceptional feel for the ball, empowering you to maintain control during high-speed dribbles and execute precise passes or shots. This combination allows for both straight-line speed and angled bursts of pace, adapting to diverse on-field demands. The PRIMEKNIT collar and secure lace-up fastening ensure a locked-in, comfortable fit, enhancing your stability and confidence as you dart through gaps. Whether you're making last-ditch tackles or leading a counter-attack, these boots support dynamic play.
Lacing: Unlace the boots fully. Slip your foot in, ensuring the burrito tongue sits comfortably across the top of your foot. Tighten the laces progressively from bottom to top, ensuring a snug yet comfortable fit. Double-knot for security.
Sockliner Selection: Your boots come with two sockliner options. The 'SL' (Super Light) sockliner is thinner for a more direct, lightweight feel, ideal for pure speed. The 'Comfort' sockliner is thicker, providing extra cushioning and impact absorption. Experiment with both to find your preferred feel for training and matches. To switch, simply pull out one and insert the other.
These boots are designed specifically for Firm Ground (FG) natural grass pitches. Using them on artificial grass (AG), turf (TF), or indoor (IN) surfaces is not recommended as it can compromise performance, durability, and potentially void any warranty due to inappropriate use.
Cleaning: After each use, remove loose dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. For tougher grime, use a specialized boot cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using boot trees or stuffing them with paper to help maintain their shape.
Product Label: Always refer to the specific care instructions on the product label inside the boot for detailed guidance.
