The Nike Mercurial Superfly 10 Academy FG MG boots are built for players whose game relies on explosive acceleration and agile movements. The innovative Zoom Air unit under the forefoot provides a noticeable spring in your step, translating to quicker bursts of speed and more responsive turns. This makes them ideal for wingers, forwards, and midfielders who frequently make runs or need to change direction rapidly.
On the pitch, the multi-ground (FG/MG) soleplate adapts seamlessly between firm natural grass and artificial turf. The varied stud pattern, including chevron, blade, and wave studs, ensures reliable grip, preventing slips during sprints and sharp cuts. Whether you're making a penetrating run or executing a quick pivot to beat a defender, the traction system provides the stability needed.
The lightweight NIKESKIN upper offers a barefoot-like feel, bringing your foot closer to the ball. This enhances touch and control, allowing for more precise dribbling and passing. The trademark texturing on the upper further aids in maintaining excellent ball contact in all conditions, helping you to confidently evade opponents and execute intricate plays. The Dynamic Fit collar ensures the boot moves as one with your foot, providing confidence in high-speed maneuvers and preventing uncomfortable rubbing or slippage around the ankle.
Setup:
Sizing: Ensure you select the correct size. Mercurial boots are designed for a snug fit; try them on with your typical football socks.
Putting On: Utilize the pull tabs on the Dynamic Fit collar to ease your foot into the boot. The collar is designed to be supportive, so a slight effort may be required initially.
Break-In: Like most high-performance footwear, these boots may benefit from a short break-in period. Wear them for light training sessions before competitive matches to allow them to mold to your foot.
Compatibility:
These are Multi-Ground (FG/MG) football boots, suitable for use on:
Firm Ground (FG): Natural grass pitches that are dry and firm.
Artificial Grass (AG): Modern artificial turf surfaces.
Do NOT use on soft, muddy natural grass (SG) or hard ground/street surfaces, as this can damage the studs and reduce the lifespan of the boots.
Care:
Cleaning After Use: After each use, remove loose dirt and grass with a soft brush. Wipe the upper with a damp cloth.
Stubborn Dirt: For more stubborn mud, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
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 damage the materials.
Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Consider using boot trees or stuffing them with newspaper to maintain their shape.
Stud Inspection: Regularly inspect the studs for wear or damage. Worn studs can compromise grip and performance.
