The Nike Mercurial Superfly 10 Academy TF is engineered for players who prioritize explosive speed and agility on artificial turf pitches. Featuring responsive Zoom Air cushioning and aggressive traction, these boots aim to maximize energy return and enable quick directional changes, though their specialized lug sole makes them optimally suited for turf surfaces rather than natural grass or indoor courts.
Zoom Air Cushioning: Provides an optimized energy return with every stride, enhancing responsiveness and a feeling of propulsion on the pitch.
Aggressive Turf Traction: The specialized lug rubber outsole delivers superior grip, ensuring stability and facilitating rapid, multidirectional movements on artificial turf.
Lightweight NIKESKIN Upper: A pliable synthetic material that wraps the foot for exceptional comfort, support, and a close-to-ball feel, enhancing touch and control.

The Nike Mercurial Superfly 10 Academy TF is engineered to elevate your game on artificial turf by focusing on speed, agility, and control. The integrated Zoom Air unit is activated with each step, providing a springy, responsive sensation that helps you burst past defenders and maintain high speeds with less effort. This 'untouchable' feeling is crucial for wingers and strikers who rely on their pace.
On the artificial pitch, the aggressive lug rubber outsole truly shines. It provides multi-directional traction, allowing for quick cuts, sudden stops, and explosive acceleration without slipping. Imagine making a sharp turn to evade a tackle or pushing off for a sprint down the line – the grip keeps you stable and powerful.
Ball control is paramount, and the lightweight NIKESKIN upper with its chevron texturing ensures a close-to-ball feel. This allows for precise dribbling in tight spaces, accurate passing, and confident shooting. The Dynamic Fit collar secures your ankle, offering a seamless connection between leg and foot, which translates to better stability during rapid changes of direction and prevents unnecessary movement within the boot.
Whether you're training hard or competing in a match, these boots are designed to support your performance, helping you to stay faster for longer and maintain precision in critical moments.
Lacing: Ensure boots are laced snugly but not too tightly. Start from the bottom eyelets and work your way up, pulling each section firm before moving to the next. This ensures a secure fit without restricting circulation.
Dynamic Fit Collar: Gently stretch the Dynamic Fit collar as you slide your foot in. Ensure your socks are pulled smooth to prevent bunching under the collar for optimal comfort and a secure feel.
Playing Surface: These boots are specifically designed for Artificial Turf (TF) pitches. The lug rubber outsole provides optimal grip and performance on synthetic playing surfaces. They are not recommended for natural grass (FG/AG) or indoor courts (IC), as performance will be compromised and durability may be affected.
Fit: Designed for adult players, the NIKESKIN upper offers a comfortable, foot-hugging fit. Consider your usual Nike sizing for athletic footwear.
Cleaning After Use: Immediately after each game or training session, remove loose dirt and mud from the boots. Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to wipe down the upper and outsole. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers.
Deep Cleaning: For more stubborn dirt, use a mild soap mixed with water and a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) to gently scrub the surface. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth.
Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct sunlight, radiators, or tumble dryers, as extreme heat can damage materials and adhesives. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid leaving them in damp gym bags for prolonged periods to prevent mold and odor buildup.
