Care of your Soccer Shoes (Football Boots):
- Undo the laces properly when you take your soccer shoes off.
- Remove soil by banging the boots together or using a brush. Then wipe with a damp cloth.
- If wet, allow the shoes to dry before polishing them. Don't heat-dry or the boots will crack.
- Grease screw-in studs occasionally to prevent rusting.
- Stuffing soccer shoes with newspaper helps them retain their shape.
- Don't play in soccer shoes with broken studs, mixed studs, or over-tightened studs.
- Never use oil or detergents on boots. Waterproofing sprays and polishes are available to use instead.
