These adidas Predator Elite Tongue SG boots are engineered to maximize your impact in attacking phases, particularly on soft, natural grass pitches. The Strikeskin grip elements are a game-changer for shooting and passing, providing tangible extra friction on the ball. This allows players to generate more spin for swerving shots and maintain precise control when delivering through balls.
The HybridTouch upper offers a soft, glove-like fit that adapts to your foot, enhancing your touch on the ball for dribbling and close control in tight spaces. Combined with the Primeknit collar, it ensures your foot is securely locked in, minimizing slippage and maximizing power transfer during explosive movements.
On soft ground conditions, the ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate with its specialized studs provides crucial multidirectional traction. This means you can confidently accelerate, decelerate, and change direction without losing grip, giving you the edge in tight turns and rapid maneuvers. The ergonomic external heel counter further stabilizes the foot, preventing movement within the boot during dynamic play. These boots are designed for players who want to dominate the midfield and attacking third, constantly threatening the opposition's goal with power and accuracy.
Lacing: Begin by loosening the laces completely. Slide your foot into the boot, ensuring your heel is comfortably seated in the heel counter. Pull the laces taut from the bottom upwards, ensuring an even, snug fit without any pressure points. Tie a secure knot.
Breaking In: Like all high-performance football boots, the Predator Elite Tongue SG benefits from a break-in period. Wear them for light training sessions or walks before competitive matches to allow the materials to mold to your foot shape.
Foldover Tongue Adjustment: Ensure the foldover tongue is positioned comfortably over the laces. The strap helps secure it in place for a clean striking surface.
Ground Type: These boots are specifically designed for Soft Ground (SG) pitches. This means they are best suited for natural grass fields that are wet or muddy, where the longer, often removable, studs can penetrate for optimal traction. Using them on artificial turf or hard ground can damage the soleplate and compromise performance.
Fit: Regular fit. We recommend trying them on to ensure the best possible fit for your foot shape.
Cleaning: After each use, remove excess mud and dirt using a soft brush or damp cloth. For the HybridTouch upper, a damp cloth is usually sufficient. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), as this can cause the materials to crack or stiffen.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using boot trees or stuffing them with newspaper can help maintain their shape.
Soleplate Lacquer: As noted, the lacquer finish on the soleplate may wear off during play. This is normal and will not affect the performance or durability of the boot.
