FAQs
How do I clean the green suede on my Nike Field General 82s?
For basic cleaning, use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning or stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaning solution applied with a clean cloth. Always brush in one direction to maintain the nap. After cleaning, apply a suede protector.
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
No, the Nike Field General 82 is designed as a lifestyle and casual shoe. It is not engineered for the demands of running or high-intensity sports. Using them for such activities may lead to discomfort, poor performance, and accelerated wear.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
Suede is highly susceptible to water damage and staining. While a good quality suede protector can offer some resistance, it's best to avoid wearing these shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally and then re-brush the suede.
What is the best way to store my suede sneakers?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape. Keep them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag to protect them from dust.
Do Nike Field General 82s run true to size?
Generally, Nike shoes tend to run true to size, but fit can vary slightly between models. We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit. This particular variant is a UK 9.5. If you're unsure, consulting Nike's official size guide for the Field General 82 series can be helpful.
What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?
For optimal comfort and to protect the shoe's interior, wear moisture-wicking athletic socks or casual cotton socks. Avoid wearing no-show socks or going barefoot, as this can lead to odor and discomfort.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dull.
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush the nap of the suede in one direction. This helps to lift and restore the texture. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be effective.
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. New shoes may require a short break-in period. Try adjusting the lacing pattern to alleviate pressure points. Consider wearing them for short periods initially to allow them to conform to your feet.
White areas (e.g., sole) are getting dirty quickly.
Clean rubber soles with a mild soap and water solution or a specialized shoe sole cleaner. A magic eraser can also be effective for removing scuff marks from rubber.
Shoes have an odor.
Remove insoles if possible and allow shoes to air out. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Ensure socks are worn to help manage moisture and sweat.

Care Instructions for Suede
Maintaining the suede upper is crucial for the longevity and appearance of your Field General 82s. Follow these steps:
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a suede protector spray (e.g., `waterproofing_spray_for_suede`) to create a barrier against moisture and stains. Reapply periodically as per product instructions.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor stains, use a suede eraser to rub away marks. For more stubborn stains, a specialized suede cleaner (e.g., `suede_cleaning_solution`) can be applied sparingly with a clean cloth.
- Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
- Storage: Store your suede sneakers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent fading and material degradation. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
