FAQs
What type of playing surface are these boots designed for?
These boots are specifically designed for soft ground surfaces, such as wet or muddy grass pitches.
Can I use these boots on artificial grass or firm ground?
No, these boots are optimized for soft ground and may not provide adequate traction or support on artificial or firm surfaces. Using them on incorrect surfaces can lead to premature wear and potential injury.
How do I attach and remove the studs?
The boots come with removable studs and a stud wrench. Insert the stud into its designated hole and use the wrench to screw it in firmly. To remove, unscrew the stud counter-clockwise with the wrench.
What is the benefit of the fold-over tongue?
The fold-over tongue provides an enlarged and smoother striking surface, designed to improve precision and power when shooting or passing the ball.
How should I clean my boots after playing?
After playing, remove excess mud with a soft brush or damp cloth. Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature away from direct heat sources.
What does 'Regular fit' mean?
'Regular fit' indicates a standard width and volume for the boot, designed to be comfortable for most foot shapes without being too tight or too loose.
What is the purpose of the Powerspine technology?
Powerspine technology is integrated into the soleplate to enhance shot power and provide crucial midfoot stability during play.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing thinner socks or loosening the laces. Break in the boots gradually with shorter wear times initially.
Poor traction on soft ground.
Ensure the correct studs are attached and securely tightened. If the ground is exceptionally soft, consider using the longest available studs. Clean any mud from the stud holes.
Studs become loose during play.
Use the provided stud wrench to tighten all studs before and after each game. If studs continue to loosen, check for any damage to the stud threads or the boot's stud housing.
Striking surface feels awkward with the fold-over tongue.
Experiment with different lacing techniques to see if it improves the tongue's positioning. Some players may need a short adjustment period to adapt to the fold-over design.

Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove excess mud with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow 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.
