Description
Nike revives an American Footballing favourite for the time ever, letting this sporting silhouette free to command the city streets. Fitting the archival bill with the addition of tasteful ‘80s design language, the Field General has already infiltrated the fit pics of Soho’s favourite fashionistas. While no sneakerhead could have foreseen the return of the silhouette, this Field General 82 “White Varsity Red” is a great reintroduction to the new wave of footwear fans.
Sat atop a rugged black sole unit, the webbing underfoot tells a story of its days as an American Football shoe thanks to its thick lugs and tread. Atop is a mixture of white leather panelling and ballistic nylon on the toe, an appropriate combination of materials that proved hard wearing during its days on the pitch and even more so today. This red and white Field General is an OG colourway, sporting the traditional Varsity Red hue that has often made its way onto the most iconic Nike footwear. Paying homage to the Swoosh’s brand history, the waffle pattern boasts a nippled finish as a nod to Bill Bowerman’s infamous waffle iron moment.
The current consensus is that the FG fits true to size, we’ll have to get these in hand before further confirmation. If the Nike Waffle Racer or even the eye-wateringly expensive Tom Sachs Mars Yard is one of your grails, then this pair is a happy alternative.
Dropping on the 29th of February via the Nike SNKRS app and select UK retailers, be sure to set a release reminder so you don’t miss out. Find out where you can buy the Nike Field General 82 “White Varsity Red” by tuning into The Sole Supplier!
