Designed for young, aspiring footballers, the adidas Predator Elite Tongue FG football boots in Lucid Lemon/Lucid Pink/Blue Fusion are engineered to enhance ball control, precision, and scoring ability. While providing advanced performance features like the Strikeskin rubber fins and ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate, users should note that the lacquer finish on the soleplate may wear off during play, which is cosmetic and does not affect performance.

The adidas Predator Elite Tongue FG boots are specifically designed for the demands of firm ground football, empowering young players to perform at their best. The HybridTouch upper combines comfort with a secure fit, allowing for natural movement without distraction. During play, the Strikeskin rubber fins on the upper become crucial for shooting and passing, providing tangible grip that allows players to generate more swerve and accuracy on the ball. This feature is particularly noticeable when trying to bend a shot into the top corner or deliver a precise cross.
The larger foldover tongue and adidas Primeknit collar work together to create a seamless connection between the foot and the boot, minimizing distractions and maximizing a locked-in feel. This integrated fit ensures that every touch and strike feels intuitive. The pronounced touch grooves further refine ball control, giving players confidence to receive and distribute the ball effectively under pressure.
Underfoot, the ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate provides the necessary foundation for explosive movements. Its multidirectional traction allows for quick cuts, rapid acceleration, and stable stops, crucial for navigating congested areas of the pitch. While the soleplate's lacquer finish may wear off, this is purely aesthetic and does not diminish the boot's functional performance or durability on the field. These boots are built for players who want to dominate the game by maximizing their control and precision.
Lacing: Unlace the boots sufficiently to comfortably slide your foot in. Ensure the foldover tongue is positioned correctly over the laces.
Fit Adjustment: Once your foot is in, pull the laces evenly to achieve a snug, secure fit. The regular fit is designed to accommodate a wide range of foot shapes. Ensure your toes have a small amount of space at the front, and your heel is locked in without slipping.
Break-In Period: Like most new football boots, these may require a short break-in period. Wear them for light training sessions before competitive matches to allow them to mold to your foot.
Surface: These are Firm Ground (FG) football boots, specifically designed for use on natural grass pitches that are firm and dry. Using them on artificial turf (AG) or hard ground (HG) may lead to premature stud wear and can increase the risk of injury. For artificial turf, consider boots with AG (Artificial Ground) or TF (Turf) soles.
Age Group: Designed for kids.
Gender: Unisex design.
Cleaning After Use: After each use, remove any excess mud or dirt from the upper and soleplate using a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), as this can damage the materials and cause cracking or shrinking.
Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
Lacquer Wear: Be aware that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the soleplate is designed to wear off during play. This is normal cosmetic wear and will not affect the performance or durability of the product.
