The adidas Predator League Fold-Over Tongue Soft Ground Football Boots are engineered for optimal performance on natural grass pitches that are soft or wet. Their design is focused on providing players with the tools needed to control the game and find the back of the net.
Striking and Precision: The Hybridfeel upper with its 3D texture works in conjunction with the Strikescale fins to create an incredible connection with the ball. When striking from distance or taking a free-kick, these elements provide the necessary grip to add power, swerve, and accuracy. The fold-over tongue offers a clean strike zone, minimizing interference between foot and ball.
Agility and Stability: On a soft, potentially muddy pitch, maintaining balance and making quick turns is crucial. The ControlPlate 2.0 soleplate features strategically placed studs that penetrate the soft ground to deliver multidirectional traction. This allows for explosive acceleration, sharp changes in direction, and stable footing when shooting or receiving the ball.
Touch and Control: The tactile nature of the Hybridfeel upper ensures that even in wet conditions, you maintain a strong sense of the ball underfoot, aiding close control and dribbling. The refined structure of the Strikescale elements further enhances ball purchase, allowing for more precise passes and intricate footwork in tight spaces.
Real-World Application: Imagine you're in the box, receiving a pass. The tactile Hybridfeel upper lets you cushion the ball perfectly. With a quick turn, the ControlPlate 2.0 soleplate digs in, preventing slips. As you line up your shot, the Strikescale fins give you the confidence to curl the ball into the top corner, while the fold-over tongue ensures a clean, powerful strike.
Your adidas Predator League Soft Ground boots come with a key for the removable studs. Before your first use and periodically thereafter, ensure all studs are securely tightened using the provided key. This prevents them from loosening during play and ensures optimal traction.
Playing Surface: These boots are specifically designed for soft ground (SG) pitches. This typically includes natural grass fields that are wet, muddy, or otherwise soft. They are not recommended for firm ground (FG), artificial grass (AG), or indoor surfaces, as using them on inappropriate surfaces can damage the boots, the playing surface, and potentially lead to injury.
Gender/Age: These are Unisex adult football boots.
Fit: Regular fit. Lace closure allows for adjustable tightness.
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your boots:
Cleaning: After each use, especially on muddy pitches, wipe down your boots with a damp cloth to remove dirt and mud. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used on the synthetic upper and soleplate.
Drying: Allow your boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can cause the material to crack or deform. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
Studs: Periodically check and clean around the studs and the soleplate to prevent mud buildup that could affect performance.
Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a boot bag can protect them during transport.
Product Label: Always refer to the specific care instructions on the product label inside the boot for detailed guidance.
