Football Boots > Nike T90 K-Laser III Football Boots - Black/Challenge Red/Metallic Silver




To accompany the release of the new Neptune Blue Total 90 Laser's, Nike have released these classically styled black K leather editions.

The launch of the Nike T90 Laser III football boots certainly caused quite a stir in the boot world, and their unique green (and now blue) colourways have definitely caught the eye. But now Nike have released these black leather football boots, for some of the more reserved boot fans who have been eager to try out their innovative technology.









The natural material of the Nike T90 Laser III football boots gives an excellent touch and feel for the ball on the toe and outer area of the boots, improving ball control and assisting dribbling. The kangaroo leather is further complimented by shape correction foam, strategically placed to help even out the bone structure of the foot for better kicking accuracy.

To ensure the Total 90 Laser III's provide power, swerve and accuracy the ShotShield has been divide into two zones. The first zone maintains an even pressure on the ball at impact for accuracy, which is through the five flat longitudinal and flexible Instep Pods. The second zone creates friction and increased ball spin for shooting and passing. This comes from a number of strategically angled and raised Fins, with each fin positioned at a different angle and a different height (0-3mm) to control the swerve of the ball.









The Black/Challenge Red/Metallic Silevr Nike T90 Laser III football boots have a lightweight TPU outsole, with the studs positioned to give the structural reinforcement and traction you need on all playing surfaces. And the redesigned heel counter provides external Lateral Support to lock the heel, but also help the planting foot to stabilise when kicking the ball, and is finished with an enlarged T90 logo.

Comfort and fit comes from the Moulded Sockliner with Poron inserts incorporated for extra cushioning, and the surface texture of the sockliner and boot collar has been updated for optimal stickiness, to protect your foot from slippage and rubbing.









Once again, the kangaroo leather versions of the Nike T90 Laser III football boots provide a sober contrast to the brightly coloured synthetic uppers. The Black/Challenge Red/Metallic Silver colourway is a classic style, and this second K-leather installment of the Laser 3's is available to pre-order now, and we're expecting them to be available from 1st April for around £130 GBP.

AMJ said:

I don't see the point in leather boots anymore, its an inferior material which absorbs the elements and ages horribly over time. It always eventually gets hard and cracks away, stitching comes undone... its a natural material after all. The Kanga-Lite versions (the green and new blue versions) are miles better, and so is anything Teijin.

i still like Laser II better, like the swan ones, and the white red gold k leather ones

March 22, 2010 12:16 AM
 

AMJ said:

barcaafan,  of course they are, its why the most elite boots on the market are synthetic. When leather hardens (it does this naturally) it loses contour with your foot, or the contour that it has becomes unable to move with your foot as a boot should.

I have two pairs of leather boots from previous seasons in front of me at the moment, there is surface cracking and wearing in both, and both have absorbed dirt and grass and feel horrible to play in.

March 22, 2010 12:35 AM
 

cronaldo9kaka8 said:

AMJ-i want to ask you a question ok. Ummm if you say that leather boots harden and crack or watever u said, then y after u bought one leather boot, you still went out to buy another? Im not tlkin ***, i just want to kno and also if this does happen to leather boots then how long does it take for it to happen bcuz ima get some adipures and now ur making me think about it, so help me out here, thanks

@ AMJ - Seriously what the hell have you been smoking???

In regards to your comment, I think your statement is based upon personal experience rather than actual scientific or statistical evidence as such which would therefore make said argument biased and infinitely indefinite.

P.S. I live in a really hot part of the world and my calfskin (not even K-Leather!) boots which cost >$100AUD are holding up soooooo much better than TWO pairs of Vapor V's that two of my team-mates have. I play CM (so do a lotta running) and always wear the same boots whereas both of my Vapor wearing friends have multiple boots and like to switch plus one is a GK which basically means that the Vapors aren't even being used as much but are still more worn out

AMJ said:

@cronaldo9kaka8, i bought two pairs at the same time, SG + FG. if you want to look after them with leather care products im sure they would last a bit longer. its up to you though.

@football not soccer, and i play with others who are still wearing Vapor IVs and theyre still fine. leather is a natural material, science says that this will age over time just like anything else natural. its animal skin after all.

Also those links you posted are completely biased, they speak of leather vs. basic pvc (ie. cheaper boots). Nike sports scientists have patented Teijin and Kanga-lite, theyre both far more developed than $20 synthetic boots at Walmart. Kanga-lite has all the properties of kangaroo leather, and then some. It breathes, it conforms, and unlike leather its non-absorbent.

The bottom line is Nike use cheap synthetics on their low end boots, and highly developed patented synthetics on their high end boots. In this respect and in sport in general, science has prevailed.

cronaldo9kaka8 said:

AMJ-so since it does it wear, and I play on regualr grass, and I play center mid, how long do u think before my adipures(gold and black colorway) will end up looking and feeling like ***?

March 22, 2010 12:12 PM
 

football not soccer said:

oh so you're saying that if it's not natural then it WON'T age over time?

Also if you read the article it was not only basic PVC, but other forms of synthetic and microfibre uppers. I also notice how you only mention Nike synthetics? You didn't say anything about the properties of Teijin but I can tell you now that K-Leather breathes and conforms just as well as Kanga-Lite. Maybe it does take in a little more water but it's also a lot softer (softer upper = more cushioning for the ball. Is that not the whole concept of the CTR?) In regards to Teijin, guess what the K-Leather version of the Laser III weighs the same as the synthetic one. I would also like to point out that the leather tanning process does involve science and has come along way since it first started. Oh yeah and I haven't even touched on the environmental impact and repercussions of developing synthetic materials and boots

LEFTFOOT said:

@ALL, PREDATOR X ARE BETTER. TRUST ME. THE STUDS FOR THE LASER WILL BREAK REAL FAST LIKE MINE. AND PREDS GIVE YOU A BETTER FEEL OF THE BALL & MAKES YOUR SHOTS REAL SMOOTH. I JUST BOUGHT THEM.

March 22, 2010 1:48 PM
 

enatron said:

not to be a nit-picker, but Nike doesnt own Teijin. Teijin owns Teijin. Theyre a Japanese company that makes all kinds of material.

also, im quite sure the environmental impact of leather leaves a larger "footprint" than a synthetic would. here in italy you can tour the leather factories that produce much of the worlds leather. one of the things i remember was that they throw out lots of leather hyde because of slight impurities, they eventually get grounded down to make "grain leather" but for proper leather, the tanning process is insanely tasking and it smells like a sewer.

synthetics are factory made and come in rolls that are cut to maximize use and minimize waste. easier to make and can be recycled!

given that, i love me some k-leather boots. i use my dois more than i use my adizeros ... and just for the sake of discussion, ive been a vegetarian for a while now; thats how much i love leather over synthetics.

i still have my air legend ii's from a year and a half ago and the leather has wear and tear but it still has the same feel to it. leather is much more comfortable but every person has a different preference to what they like

RealMadridfan07 said:

@AMJ

Leather is so much more comfortable then synthetic.  and synthetic is not on high quality boots, look at Predator X, Adipures, Tiempos, Speciali,  they even make leather versions for most synthetic shoes now, because leather is more comfortable it just won't last as long if you don't take care of it.

Kanga-lite is the exact same thing as nike-skin just named different. Leather does all the same, they just make kanga-lite sound cool so idiots will buy it. its basically synthetic thats more soft so it has same touch as leather.

TommyGun said:

I'm kinda against AMJ on the material thing.  The break-in time and comfort far outweighs the negatives of K leather, in my opinion.  I clean my boots religiously after playing and keep them conditioned with leather food...and I still have a pair of Copa's from high school that look great.   I buy boots for play, and I will replace them after the are no longer usable so it's impractical to look at boots as investments.  I like the F50i's ability to use the sprint-skin and the leather upper.....use the sprint-skin in wet conditions and the leather in dry which seems to solve the problem on holding in the elements and wear.

I actually agree with AMJ leather has become outdated it goes out of shape and then dries up and cracks very rarely can you use a pair of leather boots two seasons in  a row where as my vapours they last ages i still have a pair of vapour 3's which i use for training.

Although i feel nike have gone to far with their pricing this year £180 for vapours is way too overpriced ... cant wait to see the adizeros!!!

I'm sure you can tell me why black is rubbish? oh yeah, bcause rainbow coloured boots that become mashed after one game look so great? i love colourful boots, but black is a reliable good colour.

RealMadridfan07 said:

@ the great one

I don't know what your smoking and obviously you don't take care of leather boots cause my predator powerswerves lasted me 3 seasons. Vapors only last half to one season cause they suck and they just make people think they are fast when they don't do jack squat.

The only reason Nike has raised the price is because they know all the idiots who think they can run fast and look cool will buy them.

March 26, 2010 12:05 AM

@Real Madrid Fan

Have the powerswerves been out for 3 seasons hmmm ... what have you been smoking ha!!!

It all depends where you play so light boots suit me better i've not really used preds as find them too bulky but have had adipures and they dint last one season before ripping but like i said its to your own taste IMO i prefer synthetic boots.

BEER said:

to all the people who are discussing leather vs synthetics:

i think that it is down to personal preference and also what the respective company does with each boot. for instance i have the adipure II's in brown and because they are pvc coated they don't absorb water and they haven't cracked on me so far. i would argue that synthetics are more comfortable as i had a pair of talaria mercurials and they are almost on a par with my adi pures for comfort. Also all the boots that are made of K leather are treated with synthetic materials such as PVC and you have to go through all the effort of leather care treatments (which cost alot) just to keep the boot in good condition.

K Leather and leather boots will wear and tear, as will synthetics. It all depends on how many times you play, the playing conditions and how well you look after them. If you invest in a pair of boots, leather or synthetic, as long as you look after them properly as instruced and love erm like ur babies they will serve you well. Synthetics don't have as good a touch as leather, but are coming on leaps and bounds. leather may absorb a bit more water and wear over time, but so do synthetics and imo offer a better touch. Its all down to the individual.
