The Nike Mercurial Superfly 10 Academy FG MG is engineered for young athletes who prioritize speed and agility. The innovative Zoom Air unit in the forefoot responds dynamically, compressing and springing back with each step to propel you forward, allowing for quicker acceleration and sustained speed throughout the game. For example, during a breakaway, the cascading wave traction directly engages the Zoom Air, maximizing energy return and giving you that crucial extra burst. The multi-ground soleplate, featuring a combination of chevron and bladed studs, ensures reliable grip for explosive starts, sharp cuts, and rapid changes in direction, whether playing on a perfectly manicured grass field or a modern artificial turf pitch. The lightweight NIKESKIN upper not only provides a comfortable, foot-hugging fit but also features a textured pattern that enhances ball control, enabling precise dribbling and confident touches when weaving through defenders. The Dynamic Fit collar contributes to a secure and stable feel around the ankle, reducing distractions and allowing players to focus fully on their game. This boot is ideal for forwards, wingers, and midfielders who rely on their pace and technical skill to dominate the play.
Setup:
The Nike Mercurial Superfly 10 Academy FG MG features a laceless stretch closure for ease of use. To put them on, simply use the integrated pull tabs at the heel and collar to open the boot wider and slide your foot in. Ensure your heel is seated firmly at the back of the boot for a snug and secure fit. There are no laces to tie, making them quick to get on and off.
Compatibility:
These boots are designed for use on Firm Ground (FG) natural grass surfaces and Multi-Ground (MG) artificial grass surfaces. They are not recommended for use on soft ground (SG) or indoor surfaces, as the stud configuration is optimized for the specified terrains. They are sized for children, specifically 1.5 UK Child size.
Care:
Cleaning: After each use, wipe off dirt and debris with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as these can damage the synthetic materials.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct sunlight or use artificial heat sources (like radiators or hair dryers), as this can cause the materials to warp or crack.
Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keeping them in a boot bag can help protect them from dust and damage.
Maintenance: Regularly check the studs for wear and tear. While robust, excessive use on abrasive surfaces can accelerate wear.
