FAQs
Are these boots suitable for artificial turf pitches?
While primarily designed for firm natural grass (FG), the Nike Total 90 3 SP can be used on artificial turf. However, prolonged use on abrasive artificial surfaces might lead to increased wear on the studs and soleplate.
How do I ensure the best fit for my feet?
These boots are UK size 10. For the best fit, ensure your heel is snug and your toes have enough room to wiggle slightly without hitting the end. The classic lacing allows for personalized adjustment to accommodate different foot widths. Consider wearing the type of socks you'd play in when trying them on.
What is the best way to clean these leather football boots?
After each use, wipe off mud and dirt with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a mild leather cleaner designed for footwear. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
Do I need to condition the leather?
Yes, periodic conditioning is highly recommended. Applying a good quality leather conditioner will help keep the leather soft, supple, and prevent it from drying out and cracking, extending the lifespan of your boots.
Are these boots waterproof?
Leather boots are generally water-resistant, but not fully waterproof. They can handle wet conditions well, but sustained exposure to heavy rain or submersion can saturate the leather. Regular conditioning helps maintain their water resistance.
Can I use these boots for casual, everyday wear?
While comfortable and stylish, these are high-performance football boots. Using them for casual, everyday wear is possible but may lead to faster wear on the sole and upper compared to dedicated casual footwear, especially on hard surfaces like concrete.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
Leather boots require a break-in period. Wear them during light activities or short training sessions to allow the leather to mold to your feet for enhanced comfort and fit.
Laces frequently come undone during play
Ensure you are using a double knot when tying your laces for extra security. Check for any fraying or damage on the laces, and replace if necessary.
Leather appears dry, cracked, or losing suppleness
Regularly clean the boots and apply a specialized leather conditioner or cream. This will nourish the leather, restore its moisture, and prevent cracking.
Boots retain a strong odor
After each use, remove insoles and allow boots to air dry completely. You can also use boot deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside to absorb odors. Avoid sealing them in bags while damp.
Soleplate studs showing excessive wear on artificial turf
While these boots can be used on artificial turf, they are optimized for natural firm ground. Prolonged use on abrasive artificial surfaces can increase wear. Consider a dedicated Artificial Ground (AG) soleplate if you frequently play on turf.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Lacing: Before first use, fully unlace the boots, then re-lace them to ensure even tension from bottom to top. This helps achieve a snug and comfortable fit customized to your foot shape.
- Break-in Period: Like most leather boots, the Total 90 3 SP 'Bordeaux' may require a short break-in period. Wear them for light activities or shorter training sessions initially to allow the leather to soften and mold to your feet.
Compatibility:
- Playing Surfaces: These boots are primarily designed for use on `Firm Ground (FG)` natural grass pitches. They can be used on artificial turf, but be mindful of increased wear.
- Foot Type: The `round toe` design offers a comfortable fit for a wide range of foot shapes. The `classic lacing` allows for adjustments to accommodate narrower or wider feet.
Care:
To ensure the longevity and performance of your leather boots:
- Immediate Cleaning: After each use, wipe off mud and dirt with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh brushes that could scratch the leather.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight, radiators, or tumble dryers, as extreme heat can dry out and crack the leather.
- Leather Conditioning: Periodically apply a quality leather conditioner or cream to keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying or cracking. This is especially important if the boots get wet frequently.
- Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
- Avoid Submersion: Do not machine wash or fully submerge leather boots in water.
