Nike Delivers the Total 90 PRM in "Black Denim"

Denim has been firmly planted in the footwear spotlight this year. Levi’s multi-pair collaboration on the Air Jordan 3 reignited interest in indigo textures on classic silhouettes, and even today, another denim-wrapped runner surfaced in the form of a Zoom Vomero 5. The fabric’s crossover appeal — equal parts workwear and street staple — continues to evolve. Now, it lands on one of Nike’s most nostalgic football models.

At the same time, footballcore refuses to slow down. Terrace silhouettes, indoor trainers, and early-2000s pitch designs are dominating everyday rotation as the World Cup approaches. Nike’s latest Total 90 taps directly into that moment.

The Nike Total 90 PRM “Black Denim” reworks the early-aughts icon with a textured twill upper in washed black. The material choice instantly shifts the mood from match-day utility to lifestyle versatility, while tonal stitching across the quilted forefoot preserves the model’s performance heritage. That familiar paneled toe box remains, but the denim fabrication softens the look.

Crisp white details sharpen the contrast. A bold circular “90” badge sits at the medial side, while a clean white Swoosh streaks across the lateral panel. Subtle Total 90 branding on the heel completes the throwback feel. Underfoot, a blacked-out sole unit maintains the low-profile indoor DNA that defined the line’s dominance in the early 2000s.

Like its Light Smoke Grey counterpart, this edition leans more to pavement than pitch. The Nike Total 90 PRM “Black Denim” feels built for city streets, styled with loose denim, track pants, or tailored trousers — a natural extension of the footballcore wave currently shaping global fashion.

Expect the Nike Total 90 PRM “Black Denim” to release before the World Cup kicks off this summer via Nike.com and select retailers.
