Designed for players who prioritize speed and responsiveness on the pitch, the Nike Air Zoom Mercurial Superfly X Academy FG MG football boots offer exceptional energy return and a close-to-ball feel. With advanced Zoom Air cushioning and a lightweight construction, these boots help you maintain peak performance. While optimized for natural and artificial grass, they provide targeted advantages for specific playing styles.
Zoom Air Cushioning: Features a forefoot Zoom Air unit with a unique wave-like traction pattern that engages more of the unit upon ground contact, delivering increased energy return and sustained speed.
NIKESKIN Upper: Made from a pliable, lightweight synthetic material that wraps the foot for a second-skin-like feel, enhancing touch and control over the ball.
Dynamic Fit Collar: A stretchy Flyknit fabric collar that wraps around the ankle, providing a secure, comfortable, and supportive fit that integrates the boot with your leg.
MultiGround (FG/MG) Soleplate: A lightweight TPU soleplate designed with tuned flex zones for explosive spring. The stud configuration features next-gen chevron and bladed studs.
Optimized Traction Pattern: The unique combination of wave, chevron, and blade studs ensures excellent grip for quick directional changes and acceleration on both firm natural grass and artificial grass surfaces.
Textured Control: The NIKESKIN upper includes texturing in the Mercurial's trademark pattern, aiding precision dribbling and ball manipulation.

The Nike Air Zoom Mercurial Superfly X Academy FG MG boots are engineered for players who rely on speed, agility, and precision. The Zoom Air unit at the forefoot is pivotal, engaging more effectively with each stride to convert ground contact into forward momentum. This is crucial for accelerating past defenders and maintaining high speeds throughout a match.
The lightweight NIKESKIN upper and Dynamic Fit collar work in tandem to provide a snug, almost custom fit that brings your foot closer to the ball. This close connection translates to superior ball control, allowing for precise dribbling in tight spaces and accurate passing or shooting.
On the pitch, the tuned TPU soleplate with its blend of chevron and blade studs ensures you have reliable grip for sudden stops, explosive starts, and sharp directional changes. Whether you're making a darting run on natural grass or executing a quick pivot on artificial turf, the traction pattern is designed to prevent slippage and maximize your agility. These boots are ideal for wingers, strikers, and midfielders who need to outpace opponents and dictate play with quick movements and accurate touches.
Simply unlace the boots, slide your foot in, and lace them up to achieve a comfortable, secure fit. The Dynamic Fit collar may require a slight adjustment period to get used to the snug sensation around the ankle. Ensure laces are tied securely to maximize the foot-wrapping effect of the NIKESKIN upper and the stability of the soleplate.
These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) – natural grass pitches that are dry or slightly damp – and Multi-Ground (MG) – which typically includes both natural grass and modern artificial grass surfaces. They are intended for adult male players.
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your boots, follow these care instructions:
Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt and mud using a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not dry them near direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight) as this can damage the materials.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Consider using boot trees or stuffing with newspaper to help maintain their shape.
Product Label: Always refer to the product label inside the boot for specific care instructions provided by Nike.
