FAQs
Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?
No, the FG (Firm Ground) soleplate is designed for natural grass. Using them on artificial grass can lead to premature wear and reduced performance.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth after each use. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner, and always allow the boots to air dry naturally.
What is the primary benefit of the leather material?
The premium leather offers a superior feel for the ball, enhancing touch and control, while also providing a comfortable, adaptive fit.
How long should I expect these boots to last?
With proper care and use on appropriate surfaces, these elite-level boots are designed for durability and can last through multiple seasons of regular play.
Can I wash these boots in a washing machine?
It is strongly advised not to machine wash football boots, as this can damage the materials, adhesives, and shape of the boot.
What does 'Shadow Pack' refer to?
The 'Shadow Pack' refers to a specific colorway or collection, characterized by its sleek, often dark aesthetic, like the black and blue combination on these boots.
What size is UK 14 in other international standards?
Sizing can vary slightly between brands. For Nike, UK 14 typically corresponds to US 15 and EU 49.5. It's always best to check the specific Nike size chart.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Wear them for short periods during light activity to allow the leather to stretch and mold to your foot. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period if necessary.
Traction feels reduced on the pitch
Ensure the soleplate is clean and free of mud or debris. If playing on a surface other than firm, dry natural grass, performance may be affected. Check for wear and tear on the studs.
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for sports footwear. This will help maintain the leather's suppleness and durability.
Stitching coming undone
Inspect the stitching regularly. For minor issues, a professional shoe repairer might be able to assist. If the damage is significant, contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These football boots are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for a comfortable and effective fit. It is recommended to wear them for a short period indoors or during light training to allow them to mold to your feet.
Compatibility: The FG (Firm Ground) soleplate is specifically designed for use on natural grass pitches that are dry or slightly wet. They are not recommended for artificial grass, hard ground, or very wet, muddy conditions as this can lead to reduced performance and potential damage.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the boots.
- Drying: Stuff the boots with newspaper to absorb moisture and help them retain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, to protect them from dust and damage.
