New Arrival Nike Tiempo Maestro Academy Turf Soccer Shoes - Shadow Pack (FA26)

A soft first touch on a hard surface

Turf can feel unforgiving. It's fast and firm, and a stiff shoe turns every trap into a fight. The Nike Tiempo Maestro Academy Turf Shadow FA26 takes that sting out. Its FlyTouch upper is a soft synthetic leather that molds to your kid's foot for a cushioned touch.

Built for the turf they play on

Most youth training happens on artificial turf now, not grass. This shoe pairs a rubber outsole with short studs made for that surface, so your kid stays planted through cuts. It sits alongside our because traction keeps a growing player confident.

Real Tiempo control at the Academy tier

The Nike Tiempo line has always been the touch-first shoe, and the Maestro brings that close feel into the Academy tier a developing player can reach. Find it in the collection. This version keeps the clean, soft touch that defines the Tiempo.

The Tiempo Maestro runs true to size for most players. If your kid is between sizes, the smaller one settles in as the soft upper breaks in. Order their normal size with a thumb's width at the toe.

• The upper is synthetic, so skip the leather conditioner

FAQs about the Tiempo Maestro Academy Turf

Can these be worn on grass or indoor courts?

They're made for artificial turf. The rubber outsole and short studs grip synthetic surfaces best, so save grass for firm-ground cleats.

Do they work for a wider foot?

The soft FlyTouch upper molds to the foot and gives a little as it breaks in, handling a slightly wider foot better than a stiff synthetic.

What's the difference between the turf and firm-ground version?

This turf shoe has a rubber outsole with short studs for artificial surfaces. The firm-ground version uses molded studs built for real grass.
