The adidas F50 Elite FG football boots are crafted for adult players who demand explosive speed and agile movements on firm ground. Designed in collaboration with Lionel Messi, these boots prioritize acceleration and quick, decisive cuts to dominate the pitch. While the soleplate's lacquer finish may wear with use, this is a normal characteristic and does not impact the boot's performance or durability.

The adidas F50 Elite FG is engineered to excel in scenarios demanding blistering pace and sharp, unpredictable movements. On firm natural grass pitches, the Sprintframe 360 soleplate with its rounded midfoot studs enables players to execute quick cuts and changes of direction with exceptional agility, disorienting defenders. The boot's lightweight construction (approx. 190g) contributes significantly to burst acceleration, allowing players to reach top speeds rapidly. The HybridTouch upper ensures a close, responsive feel on the ball, vital for dribbling at speed and precise passing. Whether you're making a darting run into the box, beating a defender one-on-one, or controlling a fast-paced counter-attack, these boots provide the necessary tools. The inclusion of two sockliners allows players to fine-tune their experience: use the SL sockliner for that minimalist, 'barefoot' feel for maximum speed, or switch to the Comfort sockliner for increased cushioning during longer sessions or on harder firm ground surfaces. The burrito tongue offers a slightly wider fit which can benefit players seeking a less restrictive feel in the midfoot, enhancing overall comfort during high-intensity play.
Choose Your Sockliner: Before first use, decide which sockliner best suits your preference. Insert the lightweight SL sockliner for pure speed or the Comfort sockliner for additional impact absorption and cushioning.
Lace Up: Ensure the laces are securely and evenly tied to provide a snug, supportive fit. Adjust tightness as needed for optimal comfort and performance.
These boots are specifically designed for use on firm ground (FG) football pitches. The stud configuration is optimized for natural grass surfaces that are dry to slightly wet.
Do not use on artificial turf (AG), indoor (IC), or soft ground (SG) pitches, as this can lead to accelerated wear, damage the boots, or compromise your grip and safety.
After Each Use: Remove excess mud and dirt from the soleplate and upper using a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using a boot bag can help protect them during transport.
Lacquer Finish: Please note that the decorative lacquer finish on the bottom of the soleplate may wear off during play. This is a normal cosmetic change and does not affect the performance, durability, or structural integrity of the product.
