FAQs

What type of pitch are these boots designed for?

These boots are designed for Soft Ground (SG) pitches, which are typically natural grass fields that are wet and muddy.

How do I ensure the best striking accuracy?

Ensure the Nanostrike upper is clean and that the foldover tongue is secured correctly, creating a clean and consistent surface for striking the ball.

What is the benefit of the Powerspine technology?

Powerspine technology provides midfoot stability, reducing foot deformation upon contact with the ball to optimize power transfer for stronger shots.

Can these boots be used on artificial grass?

While they might offer some grip, these boots are specifically optimized for soft ground. Using them on artificial grass may lead to faster wear and potentially affect performance.

How do I clean and care for my SG boots?

After use, brush off excess mud and wipe with a damp cloth. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat. Store them in a cool, dry place.

What does 'floating tongue' mean?

The floating tongue is designed for easy step-in and offers adjustability. It can be secured with a strap, creating a clean striking area and a secure fit.

Are these boots suitable for all adult players?

Yes, these boots are designed for adult players, particularly those who focus on attacking play and goalscoring, and play on soft ground pitches.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure the laces are loosened before putting them on and then tightened progressively. The floating tongue and strap can be adjusted for a customized fit. Consider wearing thinner socks if the issue persists.

Traction is poor on the pitch

Verify that the boots are being used on appropriate soft ground conditions. Clean any mud or debris from the studs as this can affect grip.

Striking accuracy seems reduced

Ensure the Nanostrike upper is clean and free of dirt. Check that the foldover tongue is positioned correctly for a clean striking surface.

Studs feel worn or damaged

Inspect the studs for significant wear or breakage. For SG boots, replace worn studs with compatible replacements if possible, or consider a new pair if damage is severe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Unlace the boots completely.

Compatibility:

These boots are specifically designed for Soft Ground (SG) football pitches. They are best suited for natural grass surfaces that are wet and muddy, offering superior traction in these conditions. Use on firm or artificial ground may lead to premature wear and reduced performance.

Care:

  • Cleaning: After each use, remove excess mud with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents. Let the boots air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag to protect them from dust and damage.
  • Studs: Regularly check the condition of the studs and clean any debris stuck between them.
