With the football sneaker trend coming thick and fast, the Total 90 III is quickly becoming one of the biggest players in the game. After getting a look at the FC Barcelona-inspired version a few days ago, we’re now taking in the Nike Total 90 III Pink Foam Gum – and if you weren’t a fan of pastel kicks before, this one might just change your mind.
Earlier this year, the Beaverton brand revived the legendary soccer cleat of the same name, but reworked it specifically for everyday wear. Like the OG, this pair is dressed in buttery quilted leather that feels as luxe as it looks. The silhouette’s signature asymmetrical lacing system makes a welcome return, alongside the oversized “90” debossed on the medial sidewall. But unlike any Total 90 III we’ve ever seen before, this version arrives in a Pink Foam colorway. The hue even extends down into the midsole, which sits atop a gum rubber outsole for reliable grip and traction.
