FAQs
Can I use these boots on artificial grass?
No, these are strictly for indoor and hard court surfaces. Using them on turf may lead to premature wear of the sole and lack of necessary traction.
Are these boots waterproof?
The synthetic upper is water-resistant, but these are not designed for wet outdoor conditions or heavy rain.
Do the insoles come out?
The insoles are designed for comfort and performance; while they may be removable in some units, it is recommended to keep them in place for consistent support.
How do I clean the white markings on the sole?
Use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth to spot-clean the rubber areas of the outsole.
Who uses the Mercurial range?
The Mercurial range is endorsed by professional athletes including Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Jr, Cristiano Ronaldo, Sam Kerr, and Ada Hegerberg.
Troubleshooting
Slipping on the court surface
Ensure the outsoles are free of dust or lint; wipe the rubber tread with a slightly damp cloth to restore grip.
Boots feel too tight during first use
The pliable synthetic upper will stretch and mold to the foot over time; wear them during light training sessions to speed up the break-in process.
Pros and Cons

- Lightweight construction reduces foot fatigue
- Enhanced ball control due to textured upper

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These boots are ready for use straight out of the box. To ensure optimal compatibility, ensure you are playing on flat indoor surfaces such as gymnasium wood, polished concrete, or specialist indoor court tiles.
Care Instructions:
- Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth after each game to remove dust and court debris.
- Do not submerge the boots in water; use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dirt from the textured areas.
- Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the synthetic materials from warping or becoming brittle.
- Ensure the cushioned insole is dry before your next match to prevent odor buildup.
