Fit test: Try with football socks. 0.5cm space at the big toe. Heel locked. Leather is initially stiff but softens after break-in (normal).

K-Better Leather Break-in

First 3-5 uses:

1. Wear for 30 minutes at home before first use (softens leather)
2. First training: maximum 60 minutes (prevents blisters)
3. Second/third training: gradually increase duration
4. After 5 uses: leather adapted to foot shape, maximum comfort

Accelerate break-in: Leather softener spray (optional), wear thick socks for first uses, avoid intense matches before full break-in.

K-Better Leather Maintenance

• Cleaning: Damp cloth after each use. Remove mud/grass from upper and studs
• Drying: Air dry for 24-48h. No radiator/direct sun (cracks leather)
• Storage: Dry ventilated place. Stuff with newspaper (absorbs moisture, maintains shape)
• Conditioning: Leather cream every 10-15 uses (maintains softness, prevents cracking)
• Waterproofing: Protective spray monthly (improves water resistance)
• Expected lifespan: 12-18 months intensive use (2-3 matches/week), 18-24 months moderate use
