FAQs

How do I best protect the suede from water and stains?

It is highly recommended to apply a quality suede protector spray before the first wear and reapply periodically, especially after cleaning. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions whenever possible.

Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities?

No, the Nike Field General 82 is designed as a lifestyle and casual shoe, not for high-performance athletic activities. Its construction prioritizes style and everyday comfort over sports-specific support.

What is the recommended cleaning method for the suede upper?

For general dirt, use a suede brush. For stains, use a suede eraser or a small amount of specialized suede cleaner. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first. Allow shoes to air dry naturally.

What size should I order if I usually wear US sizes?

This specific model is listed in UK sizing (UK 8.5). Please refer to Nike's official size conversion chart to find the equivalent US size to ensure the best fit.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended for suede shoes as it can damage the material, alter the shape, and cause colors to fade. Always follow specialized suede care instructions.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the nap in a single direction. This helps lift dirt and restore the suede's natural texture and vibrancy. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be used.

Water spots or light stains on the suede.

Allow the shoes to dry completely. Then, use a suede eraser on the affected area. For more stubborn water spots, lightly dampen a clean cloth with distilled water, gently blot the entire shoe evenly to prevent new water marks, and then allow it to air dry, stuffing with paper to maintain shape.

Laces frequently come untied.

Ensure you are using a secure knot, such as a double knot or a 'reef knot' variation. Check the laces for wear; worn laces can lose their grip. Replacing them might be necessary.

Shoes feel too stiff initially.

New shoes, especially those with suede, often require a break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations at first, gradually increasing wear time. Ensure you're wearing appropriate socks for comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting started with your Nike Field General 82 is straightforward. Simply loosen the laces, insert your foot, and then tighten the laces to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure your heel is properly seated in the shoe. A double knot is recommended for security during prolonged wear.

Compatibility

Care

The suede material of your Nike Field General 82 requires specific care to maintain its appearance.

  1. Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede protector spray to guard against water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning: Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt and restore the nap. Brush in one direction.
  3. Spot Cleaning: For minor stains, use a suede eraser or a small amount of specialized suede cleaner applied with a soft cloth. Blot gently, do not rub aggressively.
  4. Drying: If wet, stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation. Avoid storing in plastic bags, which can trap moisture.
