The Nike Air Zoom Mercurial Vapor XVI Club TF excels on artificial turf, allowing young players to unleash their full speed and agility. The aggressive lug rubber outsole provides superior grip, meaning you can make sharp cuts, accelerate rapidly, and change direction without losing traction. This is crucial for beating defenders and creating space.
The lightweight synthetic upper offers a close, supportive fit that enhances ball feel. The allover texturing on the upper helps with ball control, allowing for precise dribbling and confident passes. Whether you're making a quick turn, striking a shot, or receiving a pass, the design brings your foot closer to the ball, improving your touch. The cushioned insole ensures comfort throughout the game, reducing fatigue during extended play. These boots are ideal for players who rely on bursts of speed, quick footwork, and precise ball handling to dominate the game on artificial pitches.
Simply unlace the boots, slide your foot in, and lace them up to achieve a snug, comfortable fit. Ensure laces are tied securely to prevent slippage during play.
These boots are specifically designed for Turf (TF) surfaces. The aggressive lug pattern of the outsole provides optimal grip on artificial grass and similar turf pitches. They are not recommended for use on firm ground (FG), soft ground (SG), or indoor courts (IC), as this can damage the outsole and compromise performance and safety. This specific model is sized for kids (UK size 5).
Proper care will extend the life of your Mercurial Vapor XVI Club TF boots:
Clean After Each Use: After every game or practice, wipe down the synthetic upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Use a soft brush or old toothbrush to clean dirt from the outsole lugs.
Air Dry: Always allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight, radiators, or tumble dryers, as excessive heat can damage the synthetic materials and adhesives.
Remove Insoles: For faster drying and to prevent odors, remove the insoles after use and let them air out separately.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use strong detergents, bleach, or solvents, as these can degrade the material and color of the boots.
Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place, away from extreme temperatures.
