FAQs
What does 'MG' stand for on these boots?
'MG' stands for Multi-Ground, meaning these boots are designed to be versatile and perform well on both firm natural grass (FG) and artificial grass (AG) pitches.
Are these boots suitable for professional play?
The Academy model is designed for training and recreational play. While they offer good performance features, professional players may opt for higher-tier models with more advanced technology for elite competition.
How do I clean the knitted collar?
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently clean the knitted collar. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing to prevent damage to the material.
What is the main benefit of the Zoom Air unit?
The Zoom Air unit provides responsive cushioning, giving you a feeling of lift-off and enhancing your speed and agility during play by returning energy with each step.
Can I use these boots on indoor courts?
No, the MG soleplate is designed for outdoor grass or artificial turf. Using them on indoor courts can lead to excessive wear and reduced traction.
What is the expected lifespan of these boots?
The lifespan depends on usage frequency, playing surface, and care. With regular use on appropriate surfaces and proper care, they can last for a significant period of recreational play.
Do these boots come in other colors or sizes?
Yes, the Mercurial series is available in various colorways and a wide range of adult sizes. Please check the product listings for available options.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or restrictive
Ensure laces are not over-tightened. Wear the boots for short periods initially to allow them to break in and adapt to your foot shape. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate for your foot width.
Traction feels inadequate on certain surfaces
Verify that you are using the boots on the intended FG or AG surfaces. If traction is still an issue, ensure the studs are clean and free of debris. For different conditions, consider boots specifically designed for those surfaces.
Zoom Air unit feels less responsive over time
Ensure the shoes are clean and free from debris that might affect cushioning. The responsiveness may naturally decrease with extensive wear; consistent care can help maintain performance.
Knitted collar causes irritation
Ensure the sock worn is of appropriate thickness and material. Adjust the lacing to find a balance between a secure fit and comfort around the ankle. If irritation persists, these boots may not be the best fit for your ankle shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: These boots feature a traditional lacing system. Ensure laces are tied securely but not excessively tight to allow for natural foot movement and comfort. The knitted collar should fit snugly around the ankle.
Compatibility: The 'MG' designation indicates suitability for Multi-Ground surfaces, including firm natural grass (FG) and artificial grass (AG). While they can be used on both, performance and longevity are optimized when used primarily on these surfaces. Avoid use on hard, abrasive surfaces like concrete or asphalt, as this can damage the soleplate and studs.
Care: After each use, remove excess dirt and mud using a soft brush or a damp cloth. Do not submerge the shoes in water. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. For interior care, use a damp cloth or a specialized shoe cleaner if necessary, and ensure the inside is dry before storage. Store in a cool, dry place.
