FAQs
What materials are used in the Nike Field General 82 Sneaker?
This specific variant features a leather upper with velvet overlays, complemented by a textile interior and a durable rubber sole.
Are these sneakers suitable for athletic activities like running or football?
While the design is inspired by an American football turf shoe from 1982, this reissued model is intended for street style, casual wear, and general everyday use, not for modern athletic performance or competitive sports.
How do I clean the different materials of these sneakers?
For leather, use a damp cloth with mild soap. For velvet overlays, gently brush with a soft brush or a specialized velvet cleaner. Always air dry your sneakers away from direct heat.
What kind of traction can I expect from the outsole?
The sneaker features a unique lugged rubber outsole, providing excellent grip and traction suitable for various urban surfaces and casual walking.
Is this a men's or women's shoe?
While the original description and the series generally have a unisex appeal, this specific product variant is listed with 'gender: Female' in its attributes. Please check other variants if you require a different sizing or gender specification.
How should I store these sneakers to prolong their life?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape, especially for the leather components.
Troubleshooting
Sneakers feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lace-up closure. Loosen or tighten the laces evenly from the toe box upwards until you achieve a comfortable, secure fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks.
Scuffs or dirt on the leather upper.
For light marks, gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn scuffs, use a leather cleaner or conditioner, following the product instructions carefully.
Dust or lint accumulating on velvet overlays.
Use a soft brush (like a shoe brush or an old toothbrush) to gently brush off dust and lint from the velvet in the direction of the nap. For tougher spots, a damp cloth might be used very carefully, followed by brushing once dry.
Loss of grip on the outsole.
Ensure the lugged rubber outsole is clean and free of debris (pebbles, mud). Accumulated dirt can reduce traction. Regularly clean the sole with a brush and water. If the sole is worn smooth, this is a sign of natural wear and tear.
Foul odor inside the sneakers.
Remove insoles if possible and air them out. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Ensure shoes are thoroughly dry after wear to prevent bacterial growth.

Care & Maintenance
Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your Nike Field General 82 sneakers, especially given their mixed materials.
- Regular Cleaning: After each wear, gently brush off any loose dirt or dust with a soft-bristled brush.
- Leather Care: For the leather sections, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to wipe away stains. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Velvet Overlays Care: For the velvet parts, use a soft brush or a specialized velvet cleaner to gently remove dust or marks. Avoid excessive scrubbing or harsh chemicals.
- Deep Cleaning (Infrequent): For more stubborn dirt, specialized sneaker cleaning kits designed for mixed materials can be used. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: Never put sneakers in a washing machine or dryer. Always air dry at room temperature.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
- Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather and mixed materials to provide an extra layer of protection.
