FAQs
Can I use these boots on grass or turf?
No, these are specifically designed for indoor court surfaces. They will not provide adequate traction on grass or artificial turf.
How do I clean the synthetic upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
The Mercurial range is known for a snug, performance-fit. While the material is pliable, players with very wide feet may find the fit quite narrow.
How long will the outsole last?
The durability depends on your frequency of use and the surface; using them exclusively on indoor courts will significantly prolong the lifespan.
Do these provide arch support?
They include a cushioned insole for comfort, but they do not feature specialized orthotic arch support.
Troubleshooting
Accumulation of dust on the sole reducing traction
Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth before or during play to restore grip.
Sensation of the boot being too tight during initial wear
Allow for a short break-in period; the synthetic upper is designed to adapt to the shape of your foot over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots last, it is important to follow basic maintenance steps.
- Setup: Before your first game, ensure you have tied the laces securely to achieve a snug, lockdown feel that suits your foot shape.
- Compatibility: These are strictly for Indoor/Court (IC) use. Using them on abrasive outdoor surfaces like asphalt or concrete will significantly increase the wear on the rubber outsole.
- Care: After use, wipe the boots down with a damp cloth to remove court dust and sweat. If the interior becomes damp, stuff the boots with newspaper or a moisture-absorbing cloth and let them air dry in a cool, shaded area. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as these can warp the synthetic materials and weaken the adhesives.
