FAQs
What type of playing surface are these boots designed for?
These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) pitches, meaning natural grass that is relatively dry and firm.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Lace the boots securely, ensuring the floating tongue is positioned comfortably. Walk around to check for any pressure points before playing.
Can these boots be used on artificial grass?
No, these boots are not suitable for artificial grass (AG) surfaces. Using them on AG pitches can damage the studs and reduce performance, and potentially void the warranty.
How does the Powerspine technology improve my shots?
The Powerspine technology provides midfoot stability, reducing deformation of the foot when striking the ball. This allows for more efficient power transfer, resulting in stronger shots.
What is the benefit of the Nanostrike upper?
The Nanostrike upper combines a lightweight mesh with haptic overlays, designed to enhance your touch on the ball and improve the accuracy and control of your shots.
Are these boots suitable for all positions on the field?
While designed to enhance striking, the boots offer a balance of control, stability, and agility, making them suitable for attacking players or any player looking to improve their shooting accuracy and power.
Do these boots contain recycled materials?
Yes, the product description indicates that these boots are made in part with recycled materials.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or cause discomfort.
Ensure laces are not overtightened. Try adjusting the lacing pattern. Consider using the boots for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your feet.
Traction is poor on the pitch.
Confirm you are using the boots on the correct surface (Firm Ground). Ensure studs are clean and free from mud. If studs are worn down significantly, replacement may be necessary.
Difficulty adjusting the floating tongue.
The tongue is designed to create a clean striking surface. Ensure the strap is secured correctly. If it feels loose, re-adjust the laces.
Materials show signs of premature wear.
Avoid using the boots on inappropriate surfaces (e.g., hard, abrasive surfaces). Clean and dry them properly after each use as per care instructions. Inspect for damage after use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Lacing: Ensure the laces are threaded through the floating tongue and eyelets for a snug, secure fit. Adjust the tightness to your preference, ensuring comfort without restricting blood flow.
- Fit Check: After lacing, walk around to check for any pressure points or discomfort. The foldover tongue with strap should create a clean striking area.
Compatibility:
- Surface: These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG). Use them exclusively on natural grass pitches that are dry and firm. They are NOT suitable for artificial grass (AG), soft ground (SG), or indoor surfaces.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials and affect the shape.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, ideally in a boot bag. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
- Soleplate Maintenance: Periodically check the studs for any damage or excessive wear. Clean any mud or debris trapped between the studs.
