Designed for football players seeking maximum speed and responsiveness on soft ground, the Nike Air Zoom Mercurial Superfly X Academy SG Pro Anti Clog boots equip you to dominate the pitch. Featuring a Zoom Air unit for enhanced energy return and AntiClog technology to prevent mud buildup, these boots deliver optimal grip and precise control. Be aware that these boots are specifically engineered for soft ground, and their performance may vary on other surfaces.

Lacing: Ensure the boots are laced securely but comfortably. Start lacing from the bottom eyelets and work your way up, pulling each section snug but not overtight. A double knot helps prevent laces from coming undone during play.
Break-In: Like most new footwear, a short break-in period may be beneficial. Wear them for short training sessions initially to allow the NIKESKIN upper to mold to your foot shape for optimal comfort.
Pitch Type: These boots are designed exclusively for soft ground (SG) pitches. The 'SG Pro' designation indicates they are suitable for natural grass fields that are wet, muddy, or require maximum stud penetration for grip.
Not Recommended For: Using these boots on firm ground (FG), artificial grass (AG), or indoor surfaces is not recommended and can lead to reduced performance, accelerated stud wear, and potential injury.
Fit: The NIKESKIN upper is designed for a snug, supportive fit. Ensure you select your correct UK size (e.g., UK 8.5 for this variant) for optimal performance and comfort.
Cleaning After Use: Immediately after playing, especially in muddy conditions, wipe down the boots with a damp cloth to remove loose dirt and mud. While AntiClog reduces mud buildup, it doesn't eliminate the need for cleaning.
Stubborn Mud: For more stubborn mud, use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and mild soap with water. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive scrubbers, which can damage the materials.
Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can cause the materials to crack or stiffen.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Using a boot bag can protect them from dust and scratches. Avoid storing them in damp or confined spaces.
Stud Maintenance: Regularly inspect the studs for wear or damage. SG Pro studs can be subject to wear, particularly if used on harder surfaces. Replace damaged or excessively worn studs if they are replaceable (Info needed: Check if these specific Academy models have replaceable studs).
