Extended Product Information

The adidas Predator League SG football boots are designed for junior players to maximize their impact on soft ground pitches. The HybridFeel upper delivers a comfortable, supportive, and natural feel, enabling players to focus on their game. Strikescale elements on the upper significantly enhance ball contact, giving players the confidence for precise shots, powerful passes, and increased swerve. When it comes to dribbling and intricate play, the pronounced touch grooves provide superior grip for excellent ball control. The lightweight soleplate is crucial for quick bursts of speed, agile movements, and stable footing, thanks to its multidirectional traction. For example, a young midfielder can rely on these boots to accurately thread a pass through defenders or a forward can confidently strike a curling shot towards goal. It's critical to remember that these boots are engineered specifically for soft ground, where the stud pattern can properly penetrate the surface to deliver maximum grip and prevent slipping.

Setup1. Lacing: Ensure the laces are tied securely, providing a snug fit without being overly tight to prevent discomfort. Experiment with different lacing patterns to find the best support for your foot.2. Initial Wear: It is recommended to break in the boots during a few light training sessions or casual wear before competitive matches. This helps the material conform to your foot shape and reduces the risk of blisters.### Compatibility- Pitch Type: These boots are exclusively designed for soft ground (SG) pitches, which are typically natural grass fields that are wet or muddy. Using them on hard ground, artificial turf, or indoor surfaces will compromise performance, potentially damage the studs, and may lead to injury.- Sizing: Always refer to the official adidas sizing guide to ensure you select the correct UK child size. Be aware that smaller sizes (2.5 UK and below) feature a different stud configuration (six metal-tipped studs) compared to larger sizes (3 UK and above), which include additional moulded plastic studs.### Care1. Cleaning: After each use, especially on muddy pitches, use a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove all excess mud and dirt from the upper and soleplate. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.2. Drying: Air dry your boots at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources such as radiators or direct sunlight, as this can cause the materials to crack or shrink. Stuffing the boots with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.3. Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.4. Stud Maintenance: Regularly check the metal-tipped studs for wear, damage, or looseness. Replace worn studs and ensure all are securely tightened before each game to maintain optimal grip and prevent loss.
