Designed for the speed-focused footballer, the Nike Mercurial Superfly 10 Academy FG/MG boots empower players with explosive responsiveness and superior ball control on both natural and artificial grass. While offering versatile traction across various pitches, optimal performance relies on appropriate surface conditions to prevent wear on the specialized soleplate.
Zoom Air Cushioning: Features a cascading wave of traction at the forefoot, engaging the Zoom Air unit more effectively to generate increased energy return for sustained speed.
Lightweight TPU Soleplate: Engineered with tuned flex zones to provide explosive spring and enhanced stability during quick movements and changes of direction.
Next-Gen Traction Pattern: Combines evolved chevron and blade studs to deliver superior grip for rapid acceleration, sharp cuts, and quick directional changes in every direction.
Lightweight NIKESKIN Upper: A pliable, minimalist synthetic material that wraps the foot closely for unrivalled comfort, support, and an enhanced close-to-ball feel for precise control.
Dynamic Fit Collar: Provides a secure, sock-like fit around the ankle, enhancing the connection between your leg and foot for a more confident and supportive feel.
Cushioned Insole: Offers additional comfort underfoot, reducing impact during intense play and extended wear.
Multi-Ground (FG/MG) Soleplate: Designed for versatile use on both firm natural grass (FG) and artificial grass (MG) surfaces.

These boots are engineered for players who prioritize speed and agility. The Zoom Air cushioning is strategically placed in the forefoot with a unique wave stud pattern. This design maximizes energy return, propelling you forward with greater force and helping maintain top speed throughout the game. Expect a noticeable 'pop' in your step, translating to quicker sprints and more explosive take-offs.
The lightweight NIKESKIN upper ensures you feel closer to the ball than ever before. Its pliable nature conforms to your foot, offering an exceptional touch and precise control when dribbling, passing, and shooting. The textured surface of the NIKESKIN further aids in grip on the ball, allowing for confident maneuvers even at high speeds. Players will find it easier to execute intricate footwork and maintain possession under pressure.
The Multi-Ground (FG/MG) soleplate provides reliable traction on a variety of pitches. Whether you're playing on a firm natural grass field or a modern artificial turf pitch, the combination of chevron and blade studs offers the necessary grip for quick acceleration, sharp changes in direction, and stable stops. This versatility means you can transition between different playing surfaces without needing multiple pairs of boots, making them a practical choice for competitive players.
First Fit: When first trying on your new Mercurial Superfly 10 boots, ensure they provide a snug, 'second-skin' fit. The Dynamic Fit collar should wrap comfortably around your ankle without restricting movement. Lace them securely but not overly tight.
Break-in Period: Like most high-performance football boots, a short break-in period may be necessary. Wear them for light training sessions before competitive matches to allow the upper to mold to your foot shape.
These boots feature an FG/MG (Firm Ground/Multi-Ground) soleplate, making them suitable for:
Natural Grass (Firm Ground): Ideal for dry, firm natural grass pitches.
Artificial Grass (Multi-Ground): Compatible with modern, longer-bladed artificial turf fields. The stud configuration is designed to prevent excessive stud pressure.
Avoid: Using these boots on hard ground, concrete, indoor courts, or older, sand-filled artificial turf. Using them on unsuitable surfaces can cause accelerated wear to the studs and soleplate, and may void any warranty.
Cleaning: After each use, remove loose dirt and mud using a soft brush or a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Drying: Allow your boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them directly on heaters, in direct sunlight, or in a tumble dryer, as extreme heat can damage the materials and adhesives.
Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Consider using boot trees or stuffing them with newspaper to help maintain their shape.
Odour Control: If odours develop, use a shoe deodorizer or place baking soda packets inside the boots when not in use.
