Soft Ground (SG) refers to natural grass pitches that are wet, muddy, or very soft. These boots feature longer, specialized studs designed to penetrate deeply into such surfaces, providing superior grip and preventing slipping, which is crucial for stability and quick movements in challenging conditions.
No, these boots are specifically designed for soft ground. Using them on artificial turf (AG) or firm ground (FG) can damage the studs, reduce your grip, and potentially void any warranty. It's best to use appropriate boots for each surface type.
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your child's longest toe and the end of the boot. The boot should feel snug around the midfoot and heel, with no excessive movement or pinching. Always try them on with the football socks they'll wear during play.
The Strikescale fins on the fold-over tongue are designed to enhance the friction and contact area between your foot and the ball. This helps improve ball control, allows for more precise passing, and can add power and accuracy to shots on goal.
After each use, remove mud with a damp cloth or soft brush. Do not machine wash. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Store them in a cool, dry place. Regularly check and tighten/replace removable studs if applicable.
While the synthetic upper offers some water resistance, they are not fully waterproof. They are designed to perform in wet conditions, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain or standing water may lead to some moisture absorption. Proper drying after use is essential.
The upper is made from synthetic material, the lining is textile for comfort, and the sole is also synthetic, engineered for durability and performance on soft ground.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate football socks. Laces might be too tight; try loosening them slightly. Synthetic boots often require a few wears to break in, so comfort may improve over time. If discomfort persists, check if the size is correct.
Verify that the `Soft Ground (SG)` studs are clean and free of mud buildup. For boots with removable studs, ensure they are securely tightened and not excessively worn. Replace any worn or damaged studs. Also, confirm you are indeed on a soft ground surface.
Ensure the laces are tied in a way that the `fold-over tongue` sits correctly and the `Strikescale fins` have optimal contact with the ball. Practice using different parts of your foot for control and striking to get accustomed to the boot's texture and feel.
Clean the boots immediately after use before the mud dries. Use a stiff brush or a designated boot scraper to remove excess mud, then wipe with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing and air drying. Do not machine wash.
Avoid scuffing the boots unnecessarily against hard surfaces. While designed for durability, synthetic materials can tear with excessive force or contact with sharp objects. Store boots properly to prevent accidental damage.
