[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nike Field General sneakers are a great option to elevate a casual outfit. I first wore them on a long Saturday of moving around the city, going to a pop-up event, running errands and hanging with friends. They felt like the perfect choice for a smart casual outfit and I even received a compliment at the event. They’ve become an easy addition to my rotation and I will be choosing them for future smart casual occasions. I really like the nubby, waffle outsole, which gives good traction and is an interesting, understated design addition. The mix of broken-in suede with the mesh panels combines style with practical breathability in a lightweight shoe. These shoes fit true to size with a comfortable, medium width. In other shoes of this minimalistic style, I’ve found the fit to be too narrow, but the Field Generals are a perfect fit for me. There is minimal cushion but the comfort is decent given the low-profile look. The only thing I would change about these shoes would be less aging of the black suede. The suede comes with a broken-in look, which aligns with the vintage, street wear feel. I think I would like this more with other colors. I would prefer for black suede to come in a true black and fade naturally over time. This is not a deal breaker, though. I would still feel comfortable wearing these shoes with a monochromatic look.
