The adidas Predator Elite Tongue SG boots are engineered for players who dictate the game with precise passing, powerful shooting, and controlled dribbling on soft, natural grass pitches. The HybridTouch upper molds to your foot, offering a sensation of natural touch on the ball while providing the necessary support for explosive movements. The Strikeskin rubber fins are strategically placed to maximize friction upon contact, allowing you to generate exceptional swerve and accuracy, whether you're bending a free-kick or placing a shot in the top corner. Examples of this include Jude Bellingham and Trent Alexander-Arnold, known for their precise playmaking and long-range passing.
The foldover tongue with strap ensures a locked-in feel, preventing distractions and enhancing the connection between foot and boot, crucial for quick changes of direction and powerful strikes. Combined with pronounced touch grooves, players experience heightened responsiveness, giving them confidence in every touch, pass, and shot. The ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate with its multidirectional traction is specifically designed for soft ground, digging in to provide rapid acceleration, agile turns, and stable footing, even in wet or muddy conditions. The ergonomic external heel counter further stabilizes the foot during dynamic movements. This boot is ideal for creative midfielders and clinical forwards who need to control the tempo and capitalize on scoring opportunities.
Lacing: Ensure the laces are securely tied to provide a snug fit. Adjust tightness evenly across the foot for optimal comfort and support.
Foldover Tongue: Position the foldover tongue comfortably over the laces. Use the integrated strap to secure it, ensuring it doesn't move during play. This helps provide a clean striking surface and a more integrated feel.
Pitch Type: These are Soft Ground (SG) football boots. They are designed exclusively for natural grass pitches that are wet or muddy, requiring long, interchangeable studs for maximum traction. Using them on artificial turf or hard ground can damage the studs and compromise performance.
Age Group: Designed for adult players.
Cleaning After Use: After each use, remove excess mud and debris using a soft brush or cloth. Wipe the upper with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators) as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using boot trees or stuffing them with newspaper can help maintain their shape.
Soleplate Lacquer: Be aware that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the soleplate may wear off during play. This is a normal cosmetic change and will not affect the performance or durability of the product.
