The adidas F50 Elite SG football boots are engineered for players who demand extreme acceleration, agile movements, and top-tier speed on soft ground pitches. Designed for attackers and dynamic midfielders, these boots offer a lightweight feel, superior ball control, and targeted support, enabling quick cuts and straight-line bursts. While the innovative construction provides a competitive edge, note that the soleplate's lacquer finish may wear off during play, though this won't impact performance.

These adidas F50 Elite SG boots are built for explosive performance on the pitch. The Sprintframe 360 soleplate with its rounded midfoot studs provides the crucial grip needed for lightning-fast changes of direction and angled bursts of pace, essential for wingers and attacking midfielders breaking through defensive lines. You'll feel the immediate benefit in your acceleration and ability to leave opponents behind.
The Fibertouch upper and Sprintweb 3D texturing combine to offer a close-to-the-ball feel, which translates to precise dribbling at high speeds. This means better control when carrying the ball forward and executing intricate maneuvers. The Compression Fit Tunnel Tongue ensures your foot remains secure during these dynamic movements, preventing unwanted slippage inside the boot.
For players like Lionel Messi or Mohamed Salah, who rely on sudden bursts and intricate footwork, the F50 Elite SG provides the tools to unlock their potential. The choice of SL or Comfort sockliners allows you to fine-tune the feel – go for the SL if every gram and millisecond counts for pure speed, or swap to Comfort for added cushioning during intense matches. These boots are specifically designed to dominate soft, wet pitches, providing the traction and stability required to maintain control in challenging conditions.
Choose Your Sockliner: Upon unboxing, you'll find two sockliners. The 'SL' sockliner is for a lightweight, pure speed feel. The 'Comfort' sockliner offers additional impact absorption. Insert your preferred sockliner firmly into each boot.
Lacing: Utilize the lace closure and the Compression Fit Tunnel Tongue to achieve a secure, snug fit around your foot and ankle. Ensure the laces are tied firmly but comfortably to prevent foot movement within the boot.
Playing Surface: These boots are designed exclusively for Soft Ground (SG) pitches. This typically refers to natural grass fields that are wet or muddy, where longer, conical studs can penetrate the surface for optimal grip. Do not use them on firm ground (FG), artificial grass (AG), or indoor surfaces, as this can damage the boots and increase risk of injury.
Fit: The F50 series is known for a speed-oriented, snug fit. Consider trying them on to ensure they match your foot shape. This specific variant is size 8.5 UK for adult unisex players.
Cleaning After Use: After each use, wipe off any mud or debris with a damp cloth. For stubborn mud, a soft brush can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not force dry with direct heat (e.g., radiators, hairdryers), as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place, ideally with newspaper stuffed inside to help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
Soleplate Wear: Be aware that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot may wear off during play. This is a normal aesthetic change and will not affect the performance of the product.
