FAQs

Can these boots be used on artificial grass?

Yes, the Mercurial Superfly 11 Academy is designed for versatility and provides reliable traction on both natural and synthetic grass pitches.

How do I ensure the right fit?

The boots should feel snug but not painful. We recommend wearing the specific sports socks you plan to use during matches when trying them on for size.

Are these boots suitable for wide feet?

The Mercurial line features a streamlined, performance-oriented fit which is generally narrow. If you have very wide feet, you may need to break them in or consider a half-size increase if space permits.

What is the best way to clean the synthetic upper?

Use a soft cloth dipped in lukewarm water with a very mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the synthetic material.

Does the insole come out?

Yes, the insole is removable, which allows you to replace it with custom orthotics or remove it for easier cleaning and drying.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight across the midfoot

Try re-lacing the boots using a window-lacing technique to relieve pressure on the bridge of your foot.

Accumulation of dirt in the soleplate lugs

Use a specialized plastic boot scraper or a dull butter knife to gently dislodge compacted soil after play.

Excessive moisture inside after use

Stuff the boots with newspaper or use a moisture-absorbing boot deodorizer overnight to prevent odor and material breakdown.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent traction on both grass and turf surfaces
  • Lightweight construction promotes speed
  • Secure lockdown fit for stability during cutting movements
  • Cushioned interior provides reliable comfort

Cons

  • Streamlined fit may feel narrow for some foot shapes
  • Lace-up design requires adjustment for the perfect feel
  • Specific maintenance required to keep the synthetic upper clean

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, loosen the laces completely before inserting your foot, then tighten from the toe upward to ensure a uniform hold across the midfoot. These boots are compatible with both natural firm grass and artificial grass surfaces, making them a versatile choice for league play. For care, avoid using a washing machine. Instead, remove excess mud after use with a soft-bristled brush, wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth, and allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the materials and glue bonds.
