FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the suede upper is susceptible to water damage and staining. It is best to avoid wearing them in rainy or wet conditions.
Can I use these for American football?
While inspired by football roots, these are modern lifestyle trainers and are not intended for competitive sports or contact activities.
How do I keep the red color vibrant?
Store the shoes out of direct sunlight and consider using a suede-safe color protectant spray.
What is the best way to clean the soles?
A damp cloth with mild soap is generally sufficient to wipe down the rubber outsole.
Do they offer arch support?
They provide standard support suitable for everyday walking, though they do not feature specialized orthotic inserts.
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they are designed to fit standard sizes, though you may prefer to size up if you typically wear thicker socks.
Troubleshooting
Scuffs on the suede upper
Use a dry suede brush or a suede eraser to gently buff out the scuff marks.
Dirt stuck in the Waffle outsole
Use a soft-bristled brush or a toothpick to carefully dislodge debris from the nubs.
Light color transfer or staining
Immediately blot with a dry cloth and consult a professional sneaker cleaning kit for suede-safe stain removers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Field Generals remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dust after each wear. If a stain occurs, use a dedicated suede cleaner or eraser rather than water, as water can cause the material to stiffen or discolor. For sizing, these trainers generally run true to size, but users with wider feet may find the suede material provides some natural flexibility over time. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the red pigment from fading.
