Let us introduce you to the Nike Total 90 Strike III – younger brother of the T90 Laser III
The Strike III shares many similarities with it’s big brother -including the popular Teijin leather upper.
Another shared feature is the silicon pods along the instep, designed by Nike to provide a universal point of contact for when striking the ball.
To compliment this feature, Nike also designed the high-friction zone towards the forefoot. Enhancing Nike’s previous motto of ‘Put It Where You Want It’ these precision-designed fins challenge the player to ‘Put It How You Want It’.
By enhancing boot-to-ball contact, these fins allow the player to put unprecedented spin and curve onto each strike.
Some of the features that the Strike looses in translation from the Laser is the memory foam lining to the football boot and the hefty TPU-Injected heel counter, instead getting a machine-stitched high density PVC to support the heel.
One advantage that the Strike has over the Laser is the high-availability of the Artificial Ground sole-plate, so if you ply your trade on Artificial Grass you might well opt to get these over the Laser!

No memory foam and high-friction zone instead of raised fins.. think should be good enough for all amateur players out there =)
sweet!!!
They look alike but they are completely different, even the Teijin does not feel the same.
My soon had never worn a pair of Nike football boots (he is a big Predator Fan) and when he first wore the Total 90 Laser III (Electric Green)realy liked the fit and had the fortune to score when the match was only 30 seconds, now they are the “lucky pair” of boots…
