These boots are engineered for players who rely on speed, agility, and precision on soft, muddy football pitches. The Zoom Air unit provides a noticeable spring in your step, translating to quicker bursts of speed and more sustained energy throughout the game. On wet and heavy ground, the Anti-Clog technology becomes a game-changer, preventing performance-sapping mud accumulation on the soleplate, which means you maintain consistent traction and don't feel bogged down.
The combination of round and bladed studs offers a versatile grip, allowing for both explosive straight-line speed and sharp, agile turns to evade defenders. The lightweight NIKESKIN upper wraps your foot, providing a second-skin feel that enhances your touch on the ball. The chevron texturing on the upper offers the grip needed for precise dribbling and controlled passes, even at high speeds. These features collectively enable you to make rapid, decisive movements, maintain superior ball control, and ultimately outmaneuver opponents in challenging soft ground conditions.
Stud Installation/Adjustment: Ensure the metal-tipped studs are securely fastened. A stud key (sold separately) is required to tighten or replace studs.
Break-In Period: Allow for a brief break-in period during light training sessions to conform the NIKESKIN upper to your foot shape for optimal comfort.
Pitch Type: Designed exclusively for soft ground (SG-Pro) pitches. These boots feature longer, more aggressive studs ideal for penetration into wet, muddy, or natural grass surfaces.
Sizing: Available in adult unisex sizing. Refer to the UK sizing provided (e.g., UK 9.5).
Cleaning After Use: After each match or training session, remove excess mud and debris from the soleplate and upper. The Anti-Clog technology helps, but a quick wipe is still beneficial.
Wipe Down: Use a damp cloth to gently wipe the NIKESKIN upper clean. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could damage the material.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight, radiators, or tumble dryers, as extreme heat can damage the materials and adhesives.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place, ideally with newspaper stuffed inside to help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
Stud Maintenance: Regularly check studs for wear and tear. Replace worn or damaged studs using a stud key to maintain optimal traction.
