FAQs

What does 'FG' mean on the soleplate?

FG stands for Firm Ground. This indicates the stud configuration is designed for optimal traction on natural grass pitches that are not excessively wet or muddy.

Can I use these boots on artificial grass?

No, the FG soleplate is not designed for artificial turf. Using them on artificial grass can lead to poor performance, increased wear, and potential injury.

How do I clean the metallic finish?

Gently wipe the metallic finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or brushes that could damage the coating.

What is the benefit of the Zoom Air unit?

The Zoom Air unit provides responsive cushioning, offering a springy sensation that helps with explosive movements and reduces impact during play.

How should I store my Mercurial boots?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. A boot bag or their original box is recommended to protect them.

Are these boots suitable for wide feet?

The Mercurial series generally offers a snug, performance fit. While the Flyknit upper provides some adaptability, players with very wide feet may find them restrictive. It is recommended to try them on if possible.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly to avoid over-tightening. Wear the boots for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your feet. Consider using specialized boot trees for stretching if needed.

Reduced traction on grass

Check the FG studs for any debris or wear. Ensure the grass pitch is not overly wet or muddy, which can affect stud grip. Clean the studs thoroughly.

Metallic finish appears scuffed

Minor scuffs are typical for metallic finishes. Use a specialized leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth to gently wipe the affected area. Avoid abrasive materials.

Inside of the boot feels damp

Ensure boots are thoroughly dried after use by air-drying them and stuffing with newspaper. Avoid storing them in sealed plastic bags.

  • Superior traction on firm, natural grass surfaces.
  • Unique and eye-catching design.

Cons

  • FG studs are not suitable for artificial grass or soft ground.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These boots are designed for immediate play. Ensure they fit snugly but comfortably. The laces allow for fine-tuning the fit across the midfoot.

Compatibility: The 'FG' (Firm Ground) soleplate is optimized for use on natural grass pitches. It is not recommended for artificial turf or very wet, muddy conditions, as this can lead to reduced performance and potential damage.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt and mud with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the boots in water.
  2. Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers.
  3. Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a breathable boot bag, away from direct sunlight.
