The Nike Air Zoom Mercurial Superfly X Academy AG is engineered to maximize speed and agility for young players on artificial grass. The integrated Zoom Air unit under the heel engages with every step, providing a noticeable spring in your push-off, which translates to quicker bursts of speed and sustained energy during matches. This responsiveness is crucial for outpacing opponents and making swift transitions. The NIKESKIN upper wraps the foot snugly, offering a close and intuitive feel for the ball, which is vital for precise dribbling, passing, and shooting. The chevron texturing further enhances this control, allowing for confident maneuvers in tight spaces. On the field, the AG-specific traction with its varied, hollowed-out studs ensures reliable grip and stability during sudden stops, turns, and accelerations, preventing slips and allowing for confident changes of direction. The Dynamic Fit collar provides a secure connection between the boot and the ankle, supporting quick movements without restricting natural motion. The laceless design means no distractions from undone laces and offers a consistent, clean surface for striking the ball.
