FAQs
Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?
These are designed for Firm Ground (FG) natural grass. Using them on artificial surfaces may cause excessive wear on the studs and outsole.
How should I clean the synthetic upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the synthetic material.
Do I need to size up?
Nike Mercurial boots generally offer a snug, performance-fit. If you prefer a bit of extra room or wear thick socks, you may want to try them on with your match-day gear first.
What does FG mean?
FG stands for Firm Ground. It denotes that the boots are designed to perform best on dry to slightly wet natural grass pitches.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, you should never machine wash football boots. The agitation and heat can damage the construction and affect the fit.
Troubleshooting
Accumulation of mud in studs
Use a specialized plastic boot scraper or a soft-bristled brush to clear debris between the studs after every use to maintain grip.
Boots feel slippery on wet grass
While FG studs provide reliable traction, ensure they are clean. If traction remains an issue, consider a different stud configuration specifically designed for soft, muddy ground.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Compatibility: These are Firm Ground (FG) boots, intended for use on natural grass fields. Avoid using them on concrete or artificial turf, as this may lead to premature wear or discomfort.
- Cleaning: After each match, remove excess mud with a soft brush. Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Never submerge them in water.
- Drying: Air dry the boots naturally in a well-ventilated area. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can crack the synthetic material or damage the adhesive.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and use a shoe tree or stuffed newspaper to help them maintain their shape when not in use.
