Extended Product Information

The Mizuno Morelia Neo IV Beta Elite Mix SG boots are engineered for players who prioritize speed, touch, and stability on soft, natural ground. The barefoot feel allows for an incredibly close connection to the ball, enhancing control and dribbling in tight spaces. The K-leather forefoot offers a classic, cushioned touch that many players prefer for precise passing and shooting. During quick changes of direction or sprints, the stiffer shank in the soleplate combined with the ultralight external counter outsole provides crucial stability, preventing slips and maintaining balance. The tweaked eyelet position and softer midfoot mesh work to reduce irritation and creasing, ensuring comfort even during extended play. These boots excel in muddy or wet conditions where the SG Mix soleplate can dig in and provide maximum grip, allowing you to accelerate past opponents with confidence. The 5mm higher collar contributes to a locked-in sensation, making the boot feel like a natural extension of your foot. For example, during a breakaway, the lightweight nature and secure fit mean less drag and more explosive power to reach the goal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions ### Setup 1. Initial Fit: Upon first wear, ensure the boots fit snugly but without excessive pressure points. K-leather is known to stretch and mold to your foot over time. 2. Lacing: Use the redesigned eyelets to achieve a secure, comfortable lacing. Experiment with lacing patterns to find what feels best for your foot shape. 3. Break-in Period: It is recommended to wear these boots for several shorter sessions before a full match. This allows the K-leather to soften and adapt to your foot, enhancing comfort and preventing blisters. ### Compatibility - Ground Type: These boots feature an SG Mix soleplate which is specifically designed for soft, natural ground. This includes wet, muddy, or particularly soft grass pitches. - Avoid Other Surfaces: Using these boots on firm ground (FG), artificial grass (AG), or indoor surfaces will not only compromise performance and grip but can also cause premature wear or damage to the soleplate and studs. ### Care 1. Immediate Cleaning: After each use, especially on soft ground, clean the boots immediately. Remove mud and debris from the upper and soleplate using a soft brush and lukewarm water. 2. K-Leather Care: For the K-leather forefoot, use a damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals. Consider using a leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. 3. Drying: Do not dry boots using direct heat (e.g., radiators, hairdryers) as this can dry out and crack the K-leather. Stuff the boots with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape, then allow them to air dry naturally in a cool, well-ventilated area. 4. Stud Maintenance: Regularly check the studs for wear or damage. Replace any worn or broken studs to maintain optimal traction and stability. 5. Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
