Extended Product Information

These boots are built for speed and agility, allowing players to 'glide through the opposition defence.' The lightweight TPU upper minimizes drag, making them ideal for backs, especially wingers, who rely on quick bursts and agile footwork to break lines. The tighter, locked-in fit ensures maximum energy transfer from your foot to the ground, translating directly into more powerful acceleration. For kicking, the asymmetrical lace system and upper grip texture provide a better feel and improved accuracy, which is crucial for tactical kicking or conversions. On soft ground, the specialized soleplate with six metal studs and rhombus support studs bites firmly into the turf, offering reliable traction for sharp turns and explosive pushes. The moulded footbed and anti-slip microfibre lining keep you comfortable and secure throughout the match, even during high-intensity training sessions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions ### Setup The Canterbury Speed Falcon Team SG boots feature a traditional lace-up design to ensure a secure and customizable fit. 1. Loosen Laces: Before putting on the boots, fully loosen the laces to allow your foot to slide in comfortably. 2. Insert Foot: Gently slide your foot into the boot, ensuring your heel is seated correctly. 3. Tighten Laces: Starting from the bottom, pull the laces firmly but comfortably, working your way up. The asymmetrical lace system is designed to conform to the top of your foot. 4. Double Knot: Secure the laces with a double knot to prevent them from coming undone during play. ### Compatibility These boots are specifically designed for soft ground (SG) rugby. This means they are ideal for playing on natural grass pitches that are wet, muddy, or damp. They are not recommended for firm ground (FG), artificial grass (AG), or indoor surfaces, as the metal studs can cause damage to the surface and the boots themselves, while also providing inadequate traction. These boots are sized for adult male players. ### Care To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Canterbury Speed Falcon Team SG Rugby Boots, follow these care guidelines: 1. Clean After Each Use: Immediately after playing, remove excess mud and dirt from the upper and soleplate. Use a soft brush or cloth for the upper and a stud key to clean between the studs. 2. Wipe Down: For the lightweight TPU upper and especially the white color, wipe with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. 3. Dry Naturally: Do not expose boots to direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials. Instead, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area. 4. Check Studs: Regularly inspect the metal studs for wear and tear. Ensure they are tight; re-tighten them with a stud key if they become loose to prevent injury and maintain traction. 5. Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
