The Nike Premier III FG football boots are engineered to help players dominate firm ground pitches. The premium leather upper immediately provides a soft and adaptive fit, molding to your foot for an exceptional feel on the ball. This allows for precise control, whether you're dribbling, passing, or striking.
The full-length TPU soleplate combined with conical studs ensures reliable stability and consistent traction. This means you can confidently make sharp cuts, accelerate quickly, and maintain balance during high-intensity play on slightly wet, short-grass surfaces. The conical stud pattern is particularly effective for rotational movements and pushing off from the ground.
The customizable foldover tongue is a significant feature, allowing players to tailor their fit and comfort. Whether you prefer the traditional feel of a full tongue or a sleeker, more direct feel by cutting it off, the boot adapts to your preference without compromising performance. These boots are built for the "no-nonsense player" who prioritizes touch, comfort, and reliable performance on natural grass.
Initial Fit: When first trying on the boots, ensure a snug but comfortable fit. Leather uppers will stretch slightly over time to conform to your foot.
Tongue Customization (Optional): If you prefer to remove the foldover tongue, carefully use sharp scissors along the dotted cutting line. Take your time to ensure a clean cut to preserve the fit.
Lacing: Lace the boots firmly, but not so tightly that it restricts blood flow or causes discomfort. Experiment with lacing patterns to find what works best for your foot shape.
Pitch Type: These boots are specifically designed for FG (Firm Ground) pitches. This means they are best suited for natural grass surfaces that are slightly wet or short.
Avoid: Using FG boots on artificial grass (AG), turf (TF), or extremely hard/dry natural ground can lead to premature wear of the studs and soleplate, and may also increase the risk of injury.
Immediate Cleaning: After each use, wipe off excess mud and debris from the upper and soleplate using a damp cloth or soft brush.
Leather Care: For the leather upper, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner periodically to keep the leather soft and supple and prevent cracking. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do NOT dry them near direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, dryers), as this can damage the leather and adhesives.
Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place, ideally with boot trees or crumpled newspaper inside to help maintain their shape.
Stud Inspection: Regularly check the studs for wear or damage. While conical studs are durable, excessive wear can impact traction.
