FAQs
Are these boots suitable for real grass?
These boots are designed primarily for turf surfaces. Using them on soft or muddy grass will result in poor traction.
How should I clean my Mercurial Vapors?
Use a damp cloth and mild soap to wipe away dirt. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
What is the fit like for this model?
The Mercurial Vapor line is generally known for a snug, race-car-like fit. Ensure you select your standard UK size for the best performance.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, you can use custom insoles if you require additional arch support or extra cushioning.
Are these suitable for indoor courts?
While the rubber outsole works well on turf, they may be too slippery on polished indoor gym floors. They are best suited for outdoor turf or high-quality carpet turf.
Troubleshooting
Accumulation of turf pellets in the shoe
Shake the boots out after each match and use a soft-bristled brush to remove trapped rubber bits from the outsole grooves.
Stiff feel during first wear
Wear the boots for shorter training sessions initially to allow the material to break in and mold to your foot shape naturally.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots last through the season, follow these care instructions. Ensure the boots are cleaned after every session by wiping off turf pellets and debris with a damp cloth; never submerge them in water. For compatibility, ensure you are using these boots exclusively on artificial turf surfaces, as using them on concrete or natural grass may lead to premature wear or decreased performance. Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the material from cracking over time.
