The adidas Predator League Tongue SG boots are engineered to elevate your game on soft, natural grass pitches. The HybridFeel upper combined with the Strikescale elements provides an exceptional connection with the ball, making it easier to control passes, execute precise shots, and add significant swerve to your strikes. You'll notice improved confidence when shooting from distance or trying to bend the ball around defenders.
The foldover tongue contributes to a larger, cleaner striking zone, which is crucial for consistent contact and power generation. Meanwhile, the pronounced touch grooves help you maintain close control in tight spaces, enabling quick changes of direction and agile dribbling past opponents.
Underfoot, the ControlPlate 2.0 soleplate with its multidirectional traction is specifically designed to bite into soft ground, providing the agility needed for explosive acceleration and sharp cuts. This ensures stability during rapid movements, preventing slips and allowing you to maintain balance when unleashing powerful shots or making defensive tackles. These boots are ideal for players who frequently play on wet or muddy pitches and demand maximum grip and ball manipulation.
Lacing: Utilize the lace closure system to secure the boot firmly but comfortably around your foot. Ensure the laces are evenly tightened to avoid pressure points.
Tongue Adjustment: Before lacing, position the foldover tongue to ensure it lays flat and provides a clean striking surface across your instep.
Ground Type: These boots are designed exclusively for soft ground (SG) pitches. This includes natural grass fields that are wet, muddy, or have a significant give.
Age Group: Suitable for adults.
Gender: Unisex design.
Sizing: Available in standard UK adult foot sizes.
Cleaning After Use: After each match or training session, remove excess mud and dirt from the soleplate and upper. Use a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Stud Maintenance: Regularly check the studs for wear and tear. Ensure they are clean of debris to maintain optimal traction.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, hairdryers) as this can damage the materials and adhesive.
Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using a boot bag for transport to protect them.
Material Care: The synthetic HybridFeel upper is durable, but consistent cleaning will prolong its lifespan and maintain its tactile properties.
