The Nike Air Zoom Mercurial Superfly X Academy SG Pro Anti Clog boots are engineered for players whose game thrives on speed, agility, and precision in challenging soft ground conditions. The core of their performance lies in the Zoom Air unit, which acts as a spring underfoot, absorbing impact and returning energy to propel you forward. This responsiveness means less fatigue and more sustained speed throughout a match.
On a muddy pitch, the Anti-Clog technology becomes indispensable. By actively preventing mud from sticking to the soleplate, it ensures that your traction remains consistent and the boots stay light, allowing you to maintain your pace and make sharp cuts without being weighed down. The hybrid stud configuration complements this by digging effectively into wet turf, providing multidirectional grip crucial for quick acceleration, braking, and agile turns.
The lightweight NIKESKIN upper molds to your foot, creating a 'second skin' sensation that enhances comfort and reduces break-in time. The chevron texturing on the upper is strategically placed to give you a more tactile feel for the ball, improving your dribbling, passing accuracy, and shot control even at high speeds. Whether you're making a blistering run down the wing or executing a pinpoint pass through a tight defense, these boots are designed to help you perform at your peak on soft natural surfaces.
Sizing: Ensure you select the correct UK size for a snug but comfortable fit. The NIKESKIN upper will adapt slightly to your foot shape over time.
Stud Adjustment: These boots feature durable, adjustable metal-tipped studs. If you need to tighten, loosen, or replace a stud, a dedicated stud key is required (sold separately).
Break-In: While the NIKESKIN upper is pliable, wear the boots during a few light training sessions before a full match to allow them to fully conform to your feet.
Pitch Type: These boots are specifically designed for Soft Ground (SG-Pro) pitches, which are wet, muddy, or heavily watered natural grass surfaces. Using them on firm ground (FG) or artificial grass (AG) can damage the studs, reduce performance, and potentially lead to injury. Always check pitch conditions.
Immediate Cleaning: After each use, remove any loose mud or debris from the upper and soleplate. The Anti-Clog technology makes this process easier by reducing mud adherence.
Deep Cleaning: For thorough cleaning, gently brush off stubborn dirt from the soleplate and studs. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for the NIKESKIN upper. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, hairdryers) as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
Stud Maintenance: Regularly inspect the metal-tipped studs for wear or looseness. Tighten or replace them with a stud key as needed to maintain optimal traction and boot integrity. Replacement studs are not included.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
