Canterbury Phoenix 2.0 Elite SG - Black

Phoenix 2.0 Elite SG by Canterbury - Black

Power meets precision—engineered for stability, speed, and all-field versatility.

Inspired by the dynamics of flight, the Phoenix 2.0 Elite SG is built for relentless movement and control. Its wishbone-reinforced soleplate delivers enhanced stability and energy transfer, making it ideal for versatile players across multiple positions. Designed with a regular fit, the boot features a hybrid upper combining premium leather and TPU-reinforced mesh, striking the perfect balance between lightweight performance and rugged durability. The leather toe box adds comfort and protection where it counts, making this a go-to soft ground boot for all-round athletes who demand strength without sacrificing speed.

Features:

• Versatile boot for multiple positions
  
• Soft ground boot
• Elite-level boot made with top-tier materials and the latest tech—perfect for strong, mobile loose forwards like flankers and number 8s who need power and agility in contact and open play. Less suited to speed-focused backs. Ideal for high-level match play; elite competition.

   Outsole:

• Pebax Powered® outsole with Flightbeam technology (92% bio‑based RNEW® material), for enhanced energy return and lightweight stability
• Six screw-in metal studs paired with two rhombus-shaped molded studs (8 total) for exceptional grip on soft terrain
• Optimized stud layout helps with scrum traction, directional stability, and minimal slip during quick movement

   Upper:

• Hybrid of 100% woven monomesh with tough Vaposkin TPU reinforcement—durable yet lightweight
• Mono Wrap collar & tongue: Asymmetric knit collar and tongue wrap the ankle for a locked, secure fit, reducing heel slippage
• Microfibre lining helps prevent heel slippage; reinforced toe box provides structure and protection in contact zones

   Fit & Support & Comfort:

• Offers a wide forefoot and locked‑in toe box and collar tailored to rugby dynamics - slightly narrower rear‑foot for secure fit 
• Locked-in heel and asymmetric upper deliver exceptional midfoot stability, especially during scrums and breakdowns
• Ortholite® footbed with zonal padding and ventilation offers shock absorption & breathability 
• 8 mm heel raise helps reduce lower-limb strain

   Performance:

• Hybrid stud setup delivers unmatched grip in scrums, rucks, mauls, and soft-ground play
• Flightbeam midsole structure & locked-in fit channel force efficiently through each contact phase
• Lightweight outsole & low-profile design facilitate quick movement and directional changes
• Premium monomesh upper and bio-based outsole resist wear across long seasons, while reducing environmental impact

*All sizes are US Men's

Care:

• Knock off loose mud to remove dirt from uppers and studs
• Wipe down with a damp cloth using cool water (not hot water)
• Stuff boots with newspaper or paper towels to retain shape and absorb moisture—excess moisture can weaken seams and cause the uppers to separate from the soleplate.
• Condition leather with beeswax or leather balm
• Check and replace studs 
• Let the boots air dry (avoid heat sources) for 24-48 hours
• Store boots in a dry, ventilated environment to prevent mold or mildew - ventilated boot bags work well
