Frequently Asked Questions

Question: What is the best way to apply the prints?

Step 1 – Clean the surface

Use the included wet wipe to clean the area where the print will be applied. Wipe away dirt, dust, and grease. Allow the surface to dry completely before proceeding.

A clean and dry surface is crucial for the print to adhere properly.

Step 2 – Position the print

Remove the protective film from the print. Place the print in the desired location on the shoe (e.g., heel or outer side). Adjust carefully before pressing it down.

Step 3 – Press and rub firmly

Press the print onto the shoe with your fingers. Rub firmly over the entire design for about 10–15 seconds. Pay extra attention to the edges and corners.

Step 4 – Remove the transfer film

Slowly and carefully peel off the transparent transfer film. Check that the entire print remains on the shoe. If any part does not adhere completely:

  • Place the film back
  • Press and rub again
  • Carefully peel off again

Step 5 – Done

Once the film is removed, the print is fully applied. The shoes can be used after a couple of hours. The print is designed to withstand play, weather, and normal wear and tear.

Question: How long do the prints last?

When applied/used correctly, the prints last an entire season or as long as you use the shoes. The tattoos are a permanent solution.
The durability also depends, of course, on the overall shoe care.

Question: Is the product waterproof?

Yes, the tattoos are waterproof, sweat-resistant, and weather-resistant – whether it's rain, wet grass, or artificial turf. They are designed to withstand tough conditions.
The durability also depends, of course, on the overall care of the shoes.

Question: Do the prints work on all sports shoes?

They work on all modern football boot brands such as Nike, adidas, Puma, and others. Suitable for both synthetic materials and leather.

Question: How big are the designs?

The prints are designed to fit perfectly on the shoe without being too dominant. The designs come in various sizes to provide the best possible finish.

Question: Are the tattoos waterproof and weather-resistant?

Yes, the prints are resistant to all weather conditions:
• Waterproof – withstand rain and moisture without coming off or fading
• Weather-resistant – hold up in cold, heat, and wind
• UV-resistant – do not fade in the sun
• Temperature-stable – unaffected by extreme cold or heat
• Scratch-resistant – withstand wear and tear without damage
• Mud-protective – remain intact even when in contact with mud

Question: How do they differ from regular stickers or heat transfers?

Unlike regular stickers or heat transfers, IncMyCleats uses a flexible UV ink specially developed for football boots:
• Ultra-thin – only 80 microns thick, compared to thick vinyl stickers that create clearly raised edges
• Seamless edge integration – practically invisible edges, unlike raised vinyl edges
• Customized adhesion – chemically formulated to bond with the football boot's material, unlike generic adhesives that don't work on flexible surfaces
• Flexible – move naturally with the shoe, unlike thick vinyl that cracks and flakes
• Result: The tattoos blend into the shoe and look factory-made
