FAQs

Are these Nike Total 90 shoes suitable for playing football?

No, these Nike Total 90 sneakers are specifically designed for lifestyle and casual wear. The sole unit has been transformed from football studs to a flat, grippy rubber sole, making them unsuitable for athletic performance on a pitch.

How do I properly clean the leather upper of these sneakers?

To clean the leather upper, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft brush or cloth, always following the product's instructions. Finish by applying a leather conditioner to keep the material supple.

What does 'asymmetrical lacing' mean, and how does it affect the fit?

Asymmetrical lacing means the laces are positioned off-center on the shoe. This design, a hallmark of the original Total 90, provides a distinct visual look. For fit, it allows for a unique tension distribution across the foot, which can be adjusted to your preference for comfort and style.

Is the sizing true to fit for these Total 90 sneakers?

Nike footwear generally runs true to size. We recommend ordering your usual Nike size. If you are typically between sizes, consider trying the next half size up for optimal comfort, especially with leather uppers.

What material is the sole made from?

The sole is made from flat, durable, and grippy rubber. This material provides excellent traction for everyday use on various urban surfaces, distinguishing it from the studded soles of the original football boots.

What is the primary difference between these new Total 90s and the original football boots?

The primary difference lies in their purpose and sole design. While the original Total 90s were high-performance football boots with studded soles, this modern rendition features a flat rubber sole and a lifestyle-focused construction, making it suitable for casual wear and fashion rather than sports.

Troubleshooting

Leather looks dull or dirty after wear.

Gently clean the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild leather cleaner and then apply a leather conditioner to restore its luster and moisture.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house initially, gradually increasing wear time. The leather will soften and conform to your foot over time.

Laces frequently come undone or feel uneven.

Ensure you are tying the asymmetrical laces securely. Experiment with different knotting techniques, such as a double knot, if they continue to come undone. Adjust the tension gradually across the lacing system for a balanced feel.

Squeaking sound when walking.

New rubber soles can sometimes produce a squeaking sound on certain floor types. This often resolves with wear as the sole breaks in. If it persists, try applying a small amount of baby powder under the insole to reduce friction.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Simply unbox your Nike Total 90 sneakers and lace them up. There is no complex setup required. The asymmetrical lacing can be adjusted for a snug or relaxed fit based on your preference. For optimal comfort, ensure the laces are evenly tightened across your foot.

Compatibility

These sneakers are designed for lifestyle and casual wear. They are best suited for pairing with:

  • Jeans and casual trousers
  • Sporty or urban-inspired streetwear
  • Everyday outfits where comfort and unique style are desired

They are not compatible with competitive sports, particularly football, as the sole unit is designed for street use and not for grip on natural or artificial pitches.

Care

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your leather Nike Total 90 sneakers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth after each use to remove dust and dirt. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth. Always follow the cleaner's instructions.
  2. Drying: If wet, allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
  3. Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner periodically (e.g., every few months, depending on wear) to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. This also helps maintain its rich color.
  4. Storage: Store the sneakers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
  5. Protection: Consider using a water and stain protector spray designed for leather footwear to add an extra layer of defense against the elements.
