The Canterbury Stampede Groundbreak Team Rugby Boots are crafted for the unique demands of junior rugby on soft, natural pitches. When running through muddy conditions, the specialized outsole provides reliable traction, helping young players maintain their footing during sprints, scrums, and tackles. The scuff-resistant synthetic upper means parents can worry less about rapid wear, as the boots are built to withstand the bumps and scrapes of a typical rugby season.
During a match, the cushioned collar and EVA footbed work in tandem to keep young feet comfortable and stable. This is crucial for reducing fatigue and preventing blisters, allowing players to focus on the game rather than discomfort. The breathable mesh lining helps manage moisture, a key factor in maintaining comfort during intense activity. The conventional lacing system ensures a snug, personalized fit that prevents the foot from sliding within the boot, which is essential for powerful kicking and agile changes of direction. These boots are a dependable choice for any young player looking to perform their best on soft, yielding grounds.
Lacing: Unlace the boots sufficiently to easily insert your foot. Ensure socks are worn for comfort.
Insert Foot: Slide your foot into the boot, making sure your heel is seated correctly at the back.
Tighten Laces: Starting from the bottom eyelets, progressively tighten the laces upwards. Ensure the laces are snug but not uncomfortably tight, allowing for natural foot movement.
Tie Securely: Finish by tying a secure knot (double knot recommended) to prevent laces from coming undone during play.
Surface: These boots are exclusively designed for soft ground (SG), meaning natural grass fields that are wet or muddy. They are not compatible with artificial turf, firm ground, or hard ground surfaces. Using them on incorrect surfaces can damage the studs, reduce traction, and void potential warranties.
Age Group: Designed for kids.
Gender: Primarily marketed for male junior players.
Immediate Cleaning: After each use, especially on muddy pitches, clean your boots promptly. Remove excess mud and debris using a soft brush or a damp cloth. Do not leave mud to dry on the boots as it can harden and be more difficult to remove, potentially damaging the material.
Washing: Use lukewarm water and a mild soap (if necessary) to gently clean the synthetic upper and sole. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Rinsing: Rinse off any soap residue with clean water.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators, hairdryers, or direct sunlight, as this can cause the synthetic materials to crack, warp, or become brittle.
Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. You may insert crumpled newspaper into the boots to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
Inspection: Regularly inspect studs for wear or damage. Replace them if necessary (if replaceable studs are present, these boots use a fixed sole).
