Designed for players seeking optimal performance on artificial grass, the Nike Zoom Vapor 16 Academy AG Sneaker in Glacier Blue (UK 4) offers specialized traction and a cushioned insole for enhanced comfort during extended play. While specifically engineered for synthetic surfaces, its construction prioritizes reliable grip and foot feel.
Optimized AG Performance: Provides excellent traction and stability specifically on artificial grass fields.
Enhanced Comfort: The cushioned insole significantly contributes to comfort, reducing fatigue.
Agile Design: Designed for speed and quick changes in direction, characteristic of the Vapor series.
Durable for Synthetic Play: Constructed to be robust for the unique demands of artificial turf.
Surface Specificity: Primarily suited for artificial grass; performance may be suboptimal or lead to premature wear on natural grass surfaces.
Sizing Limitation: The specific UK 4 size might not be suitable or available for all foot dimensions.
Academy-Level Features: As an 'Academy' model, it may lack some of the advanced materials or technologies found in top-tier 'Elite' versions.

Fitting: Try on the sneakers with the socks you typically wear for playing to ensure a comfortable and secure fit. Your toes should have a small amount of space at the front.
Lacing: Lace them securely but not overly tight, ensuring your foot is held firmly in place without excessive pressure.
Surfaces: These sneakers are "Ideal on longer artificial grass" (AG) pitches. Using them on natural grass (firm ground - FG, or soft ground - SG) or indoor courts (IC) is not recommended. Using them on inappropriate surfaces can damage the soleplate, compromise performance, and potentially lead to injury.
Post-Play Cleaning: After each use, remove any loose dirt, mud, or artificial grass pellets from the upper and soleplate using a soft brush or a damp cloth.
Wiping: For tougher grime, wipe the upper gently with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Drying: Allow the sneakers to air dry completely at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources (like radiators or in direct sunlight), as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area to prevent odors and material degradation. Avoid storing them in damp or sealed bags for prolonged periods.
