FAQs
Can I use these for outdoor football?
No, these are designed specifically for indoor court surfaces and will wear out quickly if used on grass or turf.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Mercurial range is known for a snug, performance-oriented fit. If you have wide feet, you may find the standard fit quite tight.
How do I clean the synthetic upper?
Use a soft cloth dipped in mild soapy water and gently wipe the surface. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes.
Do these shoes require breaking in?
While the synthetic upper is pliable, it may take 1-2 training sessions to fully mold to the shape of your foot.
Are these unisex?
While the model listed is for men, the construction of the series is consistent across the range. Please check the specific size and gender labeling provided for your chosen SKU.
Troubleshooting
Accumulation of dust on the outsole causing slippage
Wipe the rubber outsole with a clean, damp cloth to restore grip.
Feeling too tight across the midfoot
Loosen the laces fully before putting the shoe on to allow the upper to adapt to your foot shape naturally.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Mercurial Vapor 16 trainers, avoid wearing them on abrasive outdoor surfaces like asphalt or concrete.
- Cleaning: After play, wipe away any dust or debris from the upper with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, air-dry them naturally at room temperature. Never place them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the synthetic materials and glue.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the material.
- Compatibility: These are strictly for indoor court use. Using them on incorrect surfaces may cause premature wear to the rubber outsole.
