These adidas Predator Elite FG boots are engineered for players who want to dominate the game through precision and control. The HybridTouch upper with its Strikeskin grip elements allows for an almost magnetic connection with the ball, enhancing your ability to control passes, dribble tight spaces, and execute precise shots. The refined Strikeskin rubber fins and pronounced touch grooves mean that every touch, pass, and shot will feel more responsive, allowing for greater swerve and accuracy when striking. Whether you're bending a free-kick into the top corner or threading a through-ball, the ball grip is consistently superior.
On the field, the ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate provides the foundation for dynamic play. Its multidirectional traction ensures you maintain grip during explosive sprints, quick changes of direction, and sudden stops, which is crucial for agility and outmaneuvering opponents. The ergonomic external heel counter works to keep your foot securely locked in, providing stability during high-intensity movements. These boots are built for firm ground surfaces, ensuring optimal performance on natural grass pitches, allowing you to play your natural game with confidence and control.
The adidas Predator Elite FG boots feature a traditional lace closure. To set up your boots for optimal comfort and performance:
Loosen Laces: Fully loosen the laces to comfortably slide your foot into the boot.
Adjust Fit: Once your foot is in, push your heel firmly against the back of the boot.
Tighten Laces: Starting from the bottom eyelets, progressively tighten the laces, ensuring an even and snug fit across your foot. Avoid over-tightening, which can cause discomfort, or under-tightening, which can lead to instability.
Secure Knot: Tie a secure knot, ensuring the laces will not come undone during play.
These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces. They are optimized for use on natural grass pitches that are not excessively wet or muddy. Using them on artificial turf (AG), hard ground (HG), or indoor surfaces (IC) may compromise performance, traction, and durability.
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Predator Elite FG boots:
Cleaning After Use: After each use, remove any loose dirt or mud using a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Deep Cleaning: For tougher grime, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth. Gently scrub the HybridTouch upper and soleplate. Rinse with clean water.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight, radiators, or artificial heat sources, as these can damage the materials and cause cracking or shrinkage.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using boot trees or stuffing them with newspaper can help maintain their shape.
Lacquer Finish: Note that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the soleplate may wear off during play. This is normal and does not affect the product's performance or durability.
