The Canterbury Speed Falcon Rugby Boots are engineered for peak performance, particularly for players who prioritize speed and agility on the rugby field. The lightweight design means less drag and quicker acceleration, making them ideal for backs, wingers, or any player needing to break away from the pack.
On soft ground pitches, the rugby-approved metal studs provide formidable grip, preventing slips during scrums, rucks, mauls, and sprints. This superior traction allows for powerful pushes and confident directional changes, crucial for maintaining balance and executing plays effectively.
The asymmetric lacing is a standout feature for kickers and ball carriers, offering a flatter, cleaner surface for making contact with the ball, which can improve kicking accuracy and control. This design also contributes to a snug, locked-in fit, reducing foot movement inside the boot during explosive actions.
Combined with the breathable construction, these boots ensure comfort even during the most demanding games, helping players maintain focus. The mixed stud outsole balances stability and grip, adapting to varied soft-ground conditions you might encounter during a match, from slightly damp to very muddy.
Initial Fit: Try on the boots with the type of socks you typically wear for rugby. Ensure there's a snug but comfortable fit, with no excessive movement or pinching.
Lacing: Utilize the asymmetric lacing system to secure your foot firmly. Start lacing from the bottom eyelets, pulling evenly to distribute pressure across the top of your foot. Double-knot for security.
Break-In Period: Like all new boots, these may require a short break-in period. Wear them for light training sessions before a full match to allow them to conform to your foot.
Pitch Type: These boots are specifically designed for soft ground (SG) pitches. The metal studs provide optimal grip on natural grass fields that are wet, muddy, or otherwise soft.
Avoid Hard Ground: Using these boots on artificial turf (AG) or very firm ground (FG) can damage the studs and potentially cause discomfort or injury due to lack of appropriate traction.
Age Group: Suitable for adult players.
Gender: Designed as a unisex product.
Post-Match Cleaning: Immediately after use, remove any excess mud and dirt from the boots using a stiff brush or old cloth. For stubborn dirt, a damp cloth can be used. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Stud Inspection: Regularly check the metal studs for wear, damage, or looseness. Tighten any loose studs with a stud key (not included). Replace worn or damaged studs as needed (Info needed: [confirm if studs are replaceable and if spare studs are available]).
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight) to prevent material damage or cracking. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing in sealed plastic bags for extended periods, as this can trap moisture.
Hygiene: Consider using boot deodorizers to keep them fresh between uses.
