How to take care of nike AZT90 II's

T90keeper · Apr 25, 2004

i was just curious as to how to take care of AZT90II's because they are made of KNG-100 as opposed to k-leather.

I have been using a white/blue pair of AZT II for over a year (itz a Nike ID product). I found that it is often impossible to remove marks on the boot, esp those made from studs of other boots. Mud and dirt is easy to clean off tho, just with water will do.

one of my friends said he put chelsea leather food on them...would this have any effect on the kng-100

IIRC, nike's KNG are prone to getting scratch marks from predator's red studs and there is no way to clean them off properly! LOL!

Yeah, I'm supposed to recive my AZT's this week and I was wondering the same thing about the Leather Food. Any adverse effects?

i know what you mean andraay, i have red predator stud marks on mine. they've been there since indoor a few months ago.

Andraay · Apr 27, 2004

I have tried really everything, it just won't go off completely... I rubbed the marks with a damp cloth for a long long time (like a couple of hours) and still there are some traces left. I wonder whether the AZTIII are easier to clean, but I highly doubt it as the material is the same.

I use non acetone nailpolish remover. Works wonders The only stain that I couldn't completely get rid of was a huge black scuff that I got in a match. It is mostly removed and you can barely tell it is their. I used it on AZT90 III's though.

nobady has answered my question yet though. SHould you use leather food on them??

newcastle#1 · Apr 28, 2004

I kinda doubt it would do much good, cause its synthetic. The food won't absorb into the material. Thats just a guess though. Haven't tried it or anything. I really doubt it would hurt the material.

I have AZT90II's (white,black), and I was wondering if the nail polish remover will make the First Touch coating come off

beraht · May 6, 2004

Yeah it does. It is bound to come off anyways though.

viperman5000 · May 6, 2004

How long would it take for the First Touch coating to come off without any foreign substances. ex: nail polish remover.

T90keeper · May 9, 2004

is the first touch the little strips along the instep

TCSoccerguy12 · May 9, 2004

It's a coating on the boot inself. It's like a little film on top of the KNG-100

ADIKeeper · May 10, 2004

A quick word of advice...do NOT let those spray-on boot cleaners sit on the boot for too long. It turned part of my shoes YELLOW.

phillys · May 10, 2004

Oh sht! Thanks for the advice, AdiKeeper!

*me runs off and cleans his boots WITHOUT the boot sprayer*

ADIKeeper · May 10, 2004

Well, you can use them. Just dont let it set in for too long. Works pretty well.

phillys · May 10, 2004

What do you mean set it for too long?

Lg__o3 · May 10, 2004

he means when u spray the cleaner on,dont leave it there for a long period of time, whipe it off

phillys · May 10, 2004

I see...so, as long as I keeping wiping it without leaving it staying there as a bunch of wet substance, I would be okay? (I mean, the boot )

ADIKeeper · May 11, 2004

Yeah, I sprayed em' and I let it set in for like 30 secs. Totally messed em' up. Cleaned em' without the spray a few times and it kinda faded away. Just spray on and wipe off quickly.

phillys · May 11, 2004

Okay. Thanks for the advice

I've Got The AZT90 II Silver/blue.. and i just Clean them with water.. and they are almost the same silver as at the beginning of the season.. and now it is the end of the season..

ADIKeeper · May 23, 2004

Yeah, the only problem is the dirt on mine stays in the stitching. Makes it a lot harder to get out.
