FAQs
What does FG/AG mean for these boots?
FG/AG stands for Firm Ground/Artificial Ground. This indicates that the boots are designed with a soleplate and stud configuration optimized for performance on both natural grass pitches (firm ground) and artificial turf surfaces.
Can I wear these boots without laces?
Yes, the PUMA Future 8 Match FG/AG boots are specifically designed to offer the option of playing with or without laces. This allows for a customized fit and feel, catering to different player preferences.
How do I choose the correct size?
It is recommended to refer to PUMA's official size guide, typically found on the product page or brand website. If possible, try on the boots to ensure a comfortable and secure fit, as sizing can sometimes vary between brands and models.
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
Yes, these boots are designed to offer a regular to wide fit, providing more accommodation for a broader range of foot shapes compared to narrower models.
How should I clean my PUMA Future 8 Match boots?
After each use, remove loose dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or put them in a washing machine or dryer. Allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat or sunlight.
What is GripControl Technology?
GripControl Technology refers to a textured application on the upper material of the boot, designed to enhance friction between the boot and the ball. This provides improved grip, touch, and control, especially when dribbling or passing.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel uncomfortable or too tight.
Ensure you have the correct size. These boots offer a regular to wide fit, but if they are new, a short break-in period (1-2 light sessions) is often needed. Try adjusting the lacing pattern to see if it improves comfort.
Poor grip or slipping on the pitch.
Verify that the FG/AG outsole is appropriate for the surface you are playing on. Ensure the studs are clean and free from excessive mud or debris, as this can impede traction. Check the pitch conditions – extremely wet or dry, hard surfaces might reduce optimal grip.
Laces frequently come undone during play.
Experiment with different lacing techniques. A 'double knot' or a 'surgeon's knot' can provide a more secure hold. Ensure the laces are fully tightened from bottom to top before tying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting Started:
- Lacing Options: Decide whether to use the laces. If lacing, ensure they are snug but not too tight, allowing for comfortable movement. The flexible design allows you to experiment with different lacing patterns for optimal lockdown.
- Initial Wear: For new boots, it's recommended to wear them for short, light training sessions initially to allow them to mold to your feet and reduce the chance of discomfort.
Compatibility:
- These boots feature an FG/AG outsole, meaning they are suitable for use on both Firm Ground (natural grass pitches) and Artificial Ground (synthetic turf). Avoid using them on extremely hard ground or indoor courts, as this can damage the studs and reduce their effectiveness.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After each use, wipe off excess dirt and mud with a damp cloth or soft brush. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators), as this can cause the materials to crack or shrink.
- Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place, ideally with boot trees or crumpled newspaper inside to help maintain their shape.
- Odour Control: Consider using odour-absorbing inserts if necessary to keep them fresh.
