The adidas Predator Elite SG boots are engineered to elevate your game on soft natural grass. The HybridTouch upper provides a soft, adaptive feel, wrapping your foot for natural movement while offering crucial support. Its Strikeskin rubber fins and pronounced touch grooves are central to its performance, creating significant friction between the boot and the ball. This allows players to achieve a high degree of precision when passing, swerve when shooting, and overall control during dribbling. The ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate is designed for the demands of soft ground play, providing multidirectional traction that translates into explosive agility, reliable speed, and unwavering stability during quick cuts, sprints, and changes of direction. The Primeknit collar ensures a snug, sock-like fit, enhancing the connection between your foot and the boot for a confident feel throughout the match. These boots excel in conditions where maximum grip is essential, allowing players to perform at their best even on damp or muddy pitches.
Lacing: Begin by loosening the laces fully. Slide your foot into the boot, ensuring your heel is seated comfortably against the back.
Adjust Fit: Starting from the toe box, gradually tighten the laces, working your way up to the collar. Aim for a snug, secure fit that doesn't feel overly restrictive. The lace closure allows for personalized tension adjustment.
Break-In: Like all new football boots, a short break-in period during practice sessions is recommended before competitive matches to adapt to the boot's feel.
Pitch Type: These boots are specifically designed for Soft Ground (SG) pitches. This means natural grass fields that are damp, wet, or muddy. The stud configuration is optimized for penetration and grip in such conditions.
Avoid Hard Ground: Using these boots on artificial turf (AG) or firm ground (FG) can damage the studs, cause discomfort, and reduce performance.
Cleaning After Use: Immediately after playing, use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove any mud, dirt, or debris from the upper and soleplate. For stubborn mud, a gentle stream of water can be used.
Drying: Never dry your boots with direct heat (e.g., radiators, hairdryers) as this can damage the materials. Instead, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry at room temperature.
Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Consider using a boot bag for protection.
Lacquer Wear: Please note that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the soleplate is designed to wear off during play. This is a cosmetic process and will not affect the boot's performance, durability, or structural integrity.
