Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
This is common initially. Wear the boots for short periods during light activity to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. Ensure you have selected the correct size, as these boots are designed for a snug, performance fit.
Lack of traction on the pitch
Confirm you are using the boots on an appropriate firm ground surface. If the pitch is wet or muddy, or if it's an artificial surface, the FG studs will not perform optimally. Clean the studs to ensure they are free of debris.
Visible wear and tear after minimal use
Inspect the boots for any manufacturing defects. Ensure they are being used only on firm ground surfaces as intended and are being cared for properly. Excessive force or inappropriate use may lead to premature wear.
