Explosive Speed and Agility: The Nike Mercurial Superfly 10 Academy FG MG excels in enabling rapid acceleration and quick changes of direction. The unique cascading wave studs, combined with the Zoom Air unit, are engineered to provide an immediate energy return when your foot pushes off the ground. This design maximises the effect of the cushioning, allowing players to feel faster and maintain high speeds for longer periods.
Superior Ball Feel and Control: The lightweight NIKESKIN upper is crafted to wrap tightly around your foot, creating a sensation of being incredibly close to the ball. This 'barefoot' feel enhances touch and control, making dribbling and precise passing more intuitive. The integrated chevron texturing further assists in gripping the ball, allowing for confident maneuvers even at high speeds.
Versatile Traction Across Surfaces: With its Multi-Ground (MG) soleplate, these boots offer reliable grip on a variety of playing surfaces, including natural firm ground and artificial turf. The combination of chevron and blade studs provides a balanced grip, preventing slippage during sprints and tight turns, while also ensuring stability.
Secure and Comfortable Fit: The Dynamic Fit collar seamlessly integrates the boot with your ankle, offering a secure, sock-like fit that supports dynamic movements without restricting comfort. This helps reduce movement within the boot, ensuring maximum energy transfer and reducing potential for blisters.
Putting On Your Boots:
Loosen Laces: Fully loosen the laces to create enough room for your foot.
Utilize Dynamic Fit Collar: Gently pull the Dynamic Fit collar up and ease your foot into the boot. The stretchy fabric is designed to hug your ankle securely.
Adjust Fit: Once your foot is in, ensure your heel is seated comfortably. Adjust the tongue (if applicable) and pull the laces firm, but not overly tight, to achieve a snug, performance-ready fit.
Tie Laces: Securely tie your laces.
Compatibility:
These Nike Mercurial Superfly 10 Academy boots are Multi-Ground (MG), making them suitable for use on both:
Natural Grass (Firm Ground - FG)
Artificial Grass (AG/MG)
Important: While versatile, avoid using these boots on extremely hard ground, concrete, or indoor surfaces, as this can damage the studs and soleplate.
Care and Maintenance:
After Each Use: Remove any loose dirt or debris by tapping the boots together. Use a soft brush or damp cloth to wipe down the upper and soleplate.
Cleaning: For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Always air dry your boots at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources (like radiators or hair dryers) as this can damage the 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 when not in use. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent mildew and odors.
Regular Inspection: Periodically check studs, soleplate, and stitching for any signs of wear or damage. Proper care extends the life and performance of your boots.
