Frequently Asked Questions
What is Nike Gripknit?
Nike Gripknit is a specialized material designed for football boots. It consists of a sticky substance formulated to enhance ball touch and control. This material covers the first two lace holes on the boots, maximizing the surface area essential for striking and controlling the ball. Whether you're playing in rainy or sunny conditions, Nike Gripknit ensures consistent grip on the ball in both wet and dry weather.
What is the difference between between Dynamic Fit and Low Cut?
Dynamic Fit refers to boots with a mid-height collar that provides ankle support and a sock-like feel. Low Cut boots have a traditional, collarless design, offering greater ankle mobility. The choice depends on personal preference and playing style.
