FAQs

Are these Nike Total 90 shoes suitable for playing football or soccer?

No, these Nike Total 90 shoes feature a flat rubber sole designed for urban and casual wear. They are not intended for athletic performance on sports pitches, which typically require studded outsoles.

How should I clean the Light Orewood Brown leather upper?

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt, then gently wipe with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild leather cleaner. Follow with a leather conditioner to maintain the material's quality and prevent drying. Avoid harsh chemicals.

What does 'asymmetrical lacing' mean for the fit and feel?

Asymmetrical lacing is designed to provide a distinctive look and allows for a customizable fit that can be adjusted to contour more closely to your foot shape for comfort. It can feel slightly different from traditional lacing initially but offers tailored adjustability.

Is the Nike Total 90 generally true to size?

Generally, Nike Total 90 models tend to fit true to size. However, due to the leather upper and unique lacing, some users may prefer to try them on to ensure the best fit, especially if they have specific foot width preferences.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather upper offers some natural resistance, prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided. Applying a high-quality waterproof leather protector can help safeguard the shoes in light moisture and protect against stains.

What is the '90' branding on the medial wall?

The '90' branding is a direct homage to the original and iconic Nike Total 90 series, celebrating its heritage and distinctive design elements that originated in the early 2000s.

What is the primary difference between this model and original Total 90 football boots?

The main difference lies in the sole. Original Total 90s featured studded outsoles optimized for traction on football pitches, whereas this version has a flat rubber sole, specifically designed for comfort, durability, and traction in urban, everyday settings.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears stiff or causes discomfort during initial wear.

Allow a break-in period. Wear thick socks initially and adjust the asymmetrical lacing for comfort. A leather conditioner can also help soften the material over time.

Shoes feel too tight or loose in specific areas despite proper sizing.

The asymmetrical lacing allows for targeted adjustment. Experiment with different lacing tensions across various sections of your foot to achieve an optimal and customized fit.

Stains or scuffs appear on the leather upper.

Clean immediately with a specialized leather cleaner suitable for the material. For minor scuffs, a leather balm designed for surface restoration can often help blend them in.

Difficulty keeping the shoes clean or maintaining their shape.

Regular cleaning with appropriate leather care products is key. Store the shoes with shoe trees when not in use to help maintain their original shape and absorb internal moisture.

Care: Maintaining Your Leather Sneakers

  • Cleaning: To clean the leather upper, gently wipe with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild leather cleaner. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dirt from the rubber outsole. Always follow the cleaner's instructions.
  • Conditioning: Periodically apply a quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. This is crucial for longevity.
  • Protection: Consider applying a waterproof leather protector spray to guard against light moisture and stains, especially before wearing them in unpredictable weather.
  • Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
