The Mizuno Morelia Neo IV Beta Elite Mix SG boots are crafted for the demands of high-level football on soft, natural pitches. Their primary focus is to deliver speed, agility, and a truly responsive feel.
On the Field:
Explosive Speed: The lightweight construction (approx. 200g) combined with the barefoot-like feel allows players to accelerate quickly and effortlessly. The reengineered upper minimizes material between foot and ball, promoting a sense of direct contact.
Pinpoint Control: The K-leather forefoot is a standout feature, offering a classic, cushioned touch that allows for excellent ball manipulation. Whether dribbling, passing, or shooting, the feel for the ball is precise and confident.
Stable Movement: The stiffer shank in the soleplate is crucial for maintaining balance during rapid changes in direction and explosive pushes off. This stability helps prevent slips and ensures power transfer.
Optimal Traction: The SG Mix soleplate with its mixed stud configuration provides aggressive grip on wet, muddy, or soft natural grass pitches. This ensures you can plant firmly, turn sharply, and push off with confidence without slipping.
Long-lasting Comfort: Even during intense matches, the updated eyelet design and softer midfoot mesh work together to reduce pressure points and irritation, contributing to comfort throughout the game. The 5mm higher collar adds to a secure, locked-in feel without being restrictive.
These boots are ideal for players who rely on quick bursts of speed, sharp turns, and precise ball control, particularly in soft-ground conditions where maximum traction is essential.
Lacing: To ensure a secure and comfortable fit, fully loosen the laces before putting the boots on. Once your foot is in, systematically tighten the laces from the toe towards the ankle, ensuring even pressure. Double-knot for security during play.
Break-in: While designed for immediate comfort, allow for a brief break-in period. Wear them for light training sessions or walks before competitive matches to fully conform to your foot shape.
Pitch Surface: These boots feature an SG Mix soleplate, meaning they are specifically designed for soft, natural ground. This includes wet, muddy grass pitches.
Avoid Other Surfaces:
Firm Ground (FG): Not recommended. The long, mixed studs can cause discomfort and may be unstable.
Artificial Turf (AG): Absolutely not recommended. The studs are too long and aggressive for artificial surfaces, which can lead to injury, damage to the pitch, and premature wear of the boot.
Hard Ground (HG): Not suitable.
Post-Match Cleaning:
Remove Mud: After each use, knock off excess mud from the soleplate and studs. Use a soft brush or old toothbrush to clean between the studs.
Wipe Upper: Gently wipe the K-leather forefoot and synthetic sections of the upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Avoid Submerging: Do not submerge the boots in water or machine wash them, as this can damage the K-leather and adhesives.
Drying:
Air Dry: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can dry out and crack the K-leather.
Stuffing: Stuff the boots with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape as they dry. Change the paper periodically.
Storage:
Store boots in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures.
Consider using a boot bag for protection during transport.
Leather Conditioning (K-Leather): Periodically, apply a small amount of leather conditioner designed for football boots to the K-leather forefoot. This will help keep the leather supple, prevent cracking, and extend its lifespan. Info needed: [frequency for conditioning]
