The adidas F50 Pro FG boots are engineered for players whose game relies on speed and agility. On firm natural grass pitches, the Sprintshell 360 soleplate shines, allowing for immediate acceleration from a standstill and sharp, decisive cuts when changing direction. This is crucial for wingers, strikers, and midfielders who need to break away from defenders or find pockets of space quickly.
During high-speed dribbling, the Sprintweb 3D texturing on the Fibertouch upper provides exceptional ball control and precision. You'll notice an improved feel for the ball, enabling intricate footwork and accurate passes or shots even at full pace. The superlight Fibertouch upper contributes to this by offering a close, streamlined fit that feels like a second skin, minimizing any bulk that could hinder your touch.
For stability during explosive movements, the external heel counter and the Compression Fit Tunnel Tongue work together to lock your foot in place. This means you can plant your foot firmly and push off with confidence, maintaining control during sprints, turns, and tackles. Their lightweight nature (approx. 205g) reduces fatigue over 90 minutes, allowing you to maintain your top speed throughout the match. These boots are best suited for competitive matches and intensive training sessions where peak performance on natural grass is key.
Lacing: Ensure the laces are securely tied. The Compression Fit Tunnel Tongue is designed to provide superior lockdown, so pull the laces firm but comfortably to achieve the desired snugness.
Initial Wear: It is recommended to wear the boots for short periods during training sessions before competitive matches. This allows the materials, especially the Fibertouch upper, to mold to the unique shape of your foot, improving comfort and fit over time.
Surface: These boots are designed exclusively for Firm Ground (FG). This means natural grass pitches that are dry to slightly wet. Using them on artificial grass (AG), hard ground (HG), or indoor surfaces can damage the soleplate and may void any warranty. The rounded midfoot studs are optimized for penetration and release on natural turf.
Fit: The F50 Pro features a streamlined fit typical of speed boots. Ensure your usual UK size provides a comfortable yet snug fit without excessive toe room or heel slippage.
Cleaning: After each use, especially on muddy pitches, wipe down the boots with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the upper material.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight, tumble dryers) as this can cause the materials to crack or shrink.
Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a boot bag can help protect them from scuffs and scratches when transporting them.
Inspection: Regularly inspect the studs and soleplate for wear and tear. While durable, consistent use will eventually lead to wear, especially on abrasive surfaces.
