Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Nike Air Zoom Mercurial Vapor XVI Elite SG Pro is strictly designed for soft-ground (SG) natural grass surfaces. Using these boots on hard ground, concrete, or synthetic turf may cause premature wear to the stud plate and discomfort to the wearer. To maintain performance, wipe the upper with a damp cloth after each use to remove mud and grit. Ensure the boots are dried naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage the knit materials. Periodically check that all removable studs are tightened securely before heading onto the pitch.
