Extended Product Information

The Puma Attacanto Football Boots are built to support young players in their football journey. Their soft synthetic upper is designed to provide a comfortable, flexible fit that adapts to growing feet, aiding in natural movement and a consistent ball feel. This allows young athletes to focus on developing their control and passing skills. The firm ground outsole is crucial for stability, ensuring players maintain reliable traction during quick changes of direction, sprints, and tackles on natural grass pitches and 3G artificial turf. These boots are particularly ideal for school PE classes, junior league matches, and casual weekend kickabouts, offering a smart blend of performance, comfort, and durability without a premium price tag. Their low-maintenance nature means less time on care and more time on the pitch, making them a practical choice for active kids.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions ### Setup & First Use 1. Lacing: The boots feature a classic lace-up design. Ensure laces are tied securely but not too tightly to allow for blood circulation and comfort. A double knot can prevent laces from coming undone during play. 2. Break-In Period: While the synthetic upper is flexible, a short break-in period during light training sessions can help the boots conform perfectly to the foot's shape before competitive matches. ### Compatibility The Puma Attacanto boots are designed with a Firm Ground (FG) outsole. This makes them compatible with: - Natural Grass Pitches: Ideal for dry to slightly wet natural grass. - 3G Artificial Turf: Suitable for modern 3G (third-generation) artificial pitches, which use rubber infill. Avoid using these boots on: - Hard Ground (HG): Very dry, hard natural surfaces can put excessive strain on the studs and feet. - Soft Ground (SG): Muddy or very wet pitches where longer, metal studs are required for grip. - Indoor Surfaces (IC) or Artificial Turf (TF/AG): Different sole types are required for these surfaces to prevent damage to the pitch or the boots. ### Care & Maintenance To maximize the lifespan and performance of your Puma Attacanto boots: 1. Cleaning After Use: - Remove Loose Dirt: After each use, knock off any large clumps of mud or grass from the sole. - Wipe Clean: Use a damp cloth to wipe down the synthetic upper and outsole. A mild soap can be used for stubborn stains, but avoid harsh chemicals. - Brush the Studs: A soft brush can help remove dirt trapped between the studs. 2. Drying: - Air Dry: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the synthetic materials. - Stuff with Newspaper: To help absorb moisture and maintain shape, you can loosely stuff the boots with newspaper. 3. Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Avoid leaving them in damp sports bags for extended periods to prevent mildew and odor. 4. Regular Inspection: Periodically check laces for wear and tear, and inspect the sole and upper for any damage that might affect performance or safety.
