The Canterbury Stampede Groundbreak Team SG Rugby Boots are built for dominance on the rugby pitch, especially for strong forwards. The combination of eight 18mm metal studs and a FLIGHTBEAM TPU outsole means you'll experience unparalleled grip and efficient power transfer.
Scrum Dominance: The aggressive traction allows you to 'bite' into the turf, giving you the purchase needed to hold your side of the scrum firmly and drive opponents back. Props and hookers will feel a tangible advantage in stability and power.
Driving Through Tackles: When carrying the ball, the boots provide the secure footing required to maintain momentum and drive through tackles, minimizing slips even in the muddiest conditions.
Recovery Runs: The FLIGHTBEAM TPU outsole's design ensures minimal energy loss, helping you conserve stamina for those crucial lung-busting recovery runs in the dying minutes of a game.
Durability in Battle: The scuff-resistant synthetic upper and reinforced toe area are built to endure the constant impacts and abrasions inherent in forward play, ensuring your boots last through tough battles and training sessions.
Comfort Under Pressure: The cushioned collar and EVA footbed keep your feet comfortable and stable, reducing fatigue and allowing you to focus on your performance from kick-off to the final whistle.
These boots truly shine on natural grass surfaces that are wet and muddy, providing the confidence needed to perform at your peak in challenging conditions.
Lacing: Utilize the conventional lacing system to achieve a secure and customized fit. Ensure laces are tight enough to provide support without causing discomfort or restricting circulation.
Initial Wear: Wear your new boots for short periods during training sessions to break them in before a match. This helps the boots mold to your feet and reduces the chance of rubbing or discomfort.
Playing Surface: Specifically designed for soft ground (SG). Best suited for natural grass fields that are wet, muddy, or otherwise soft.
Player Type: Ideal for forwards (props, hookers, locks, flankers, number 8s) who require maximum traction, stability, and power for scrummaging, rucking, mauling, and driving carries.
Gender/Age: Adult Male.
Cleaning After Use: Immediately after each use, clean your boots to remove mud and debris. Use a soft brush or cloth with lukewarm water to gently scrub the upper and sole.
Stud Maintenance: Regularly check the tightness of the 18mm metal studs. Tighten any loose studs with a stud wrench. Replace any worn or damaged studs to maintain optimal traction and prevent injury.
Drying: Do not force dry your boots with artificial heat (e.g., radiators, hair dryers), as this can damage the synthetic 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, to prolong their lifespan. Consider using a boot bag for protection during transport.
Inspection: Periodically inspect the upper for any signs of wear, tearing, or damage, particularly in the reinforced toe area, to address minor issues before they become major problems.
