Wreaking havoc on the defense requires total command of the ball. That's why we designed every aspect of the Tiempo Maestro Elite to put you in complete control of every touch. Its all-new TECHLEATHER material, softer than natural leather, combines with a flexible Maestro360 plate to give you a glove-like fit no matter where the ball strikes.

Nike Tiempo Maestro Elite LV8

$260

Wreaking havoc on the defense requires total command of the ball. That's why we designed every aspect of the Tiempo Maestro Elite to put you in complete control of every touch. Its all-new TECHLEATHER material, softer than natural leather, combines with a flexible Maestro360 plate to give you a glove-like fit no matter where the ball strikes.

Supersoft Touch

TECHLEATHER on the upper, located where you need it for creative dribbling, is a supersoft material. It provides a more consistent touch in wet or dry conditions than natural leather. Its molded lines enhance the touch experience.

Glove-Like Fit

Up top, TECHLEATHER adapts to the shape of your foot for an accommodating fit. At the bottom, the Maestro360 split plate, located at the forefoot and heel, allows the synthetic leather of the upper to wrap the arch of your foot to further enhance the feeling of a glove-like fit.

Traction for the Field

Bladed studs on the outsole at the heel and forefoot provide traction for gripping the field. Twisted conical studs help you plant and pivot with ease.

Gorgeous cleats!
Mle81Jul 24, 2026
These cleats are absolutely beautiful! From the textured swoosh, the iridescent studs and the vibrant leather; these are stunners! My son is very excited about these shoes and can’t wait to wear them in a game. He was almost too worried to wear them to training because he didn’t want to get them dirty. He loves the extra heel padding and the sock-like fit. While they are a tad narrow for him (a common issue with him) he is hoping to break them in a bit before the season begins. He even likes the included drawstring bag almost as much as the cleats. Beautiful packaging and product!

True to size and comfortable from the first wear, barely any break-in. Great touch on the ball thanks to the soft leather upper, and traction held up well on grass all game. Materials feel solid, not flimsy at all. Honestly the pink colorway is what got the most attention — wore these to my Sunday league and got compliments all game. Only downside is they're definitely not subtle, but that's part of the fun. Overall a great pair of soccer cleats that perform as good as they look.

Nice looking but get stained easily

These are very nice-looking and have a good fit. Unfortunately, the material seems to be staining after very few use.

FAQ (9)

Who are these cleats best suited for?

Players who prioritize touch, close control and creative dribbling to dictate play rather than rely on pace.

What is Nike TECHLEATHER and how does it differ from real leather?

TECHLEATHER is an engineered performance material designed to feel soft and adaptive like premium leather, while delivering more consistent touch in both wet and dry conditions than natural leather provides.

How does TECHLEATHER adapt to the foot over time?

TECHLEATHER used in the Tiempo Maestro Elite is designed to adapt naturally to the shape of the foot. It helps create a personalized glove-like fit while maintaining structure and consistent touch throughout the cleat's life.

What does the Maestro360 split plate do?

The split plate is placed at the forefoot and heel on the outsole to help the upper wrap naturally around the arch. This creates a glove-like fit with responsive movement underfoot and a closer connection between foot and field.

How does the Tiempo Maestro Elite differ from the previous Tiempo?

The Tiempo Maestro Elite introduces an all-new TECHLEATHER upper and Maestro360 split plate, delivering a softer touch, more adaptive fit and enhanced connection between foot and cleat compared to earlier versions.

What is the difference between the Tiempo, Phantom and Mercurial soccer cleat lines?

Tiempo is built for touch and ball control, Phantom focuses on precision for pinpoint passes and strikes, Mercurial is designed for explosive speed and fast-attacking movement.

Which surfaces are these cleats designed for?

Firm Ground (dry, natural-grass fields) and Artificial Grass (longer, artificial grass fields).

How does the Tiempo Maestro Elite fit, and how should players size it?

Tiempo cleats are built for a glove-like fit that adapts closely to the shape of the foot. Most players find their usual size works well, though fit preference may vary depending on how snug players like their cleats.

How should these cleats be cleaned and cared for?

Wipe dirt away after play, remove debris from the studs and let the cleat air-dry naturally. Avoiding direct heat and cleaning regularly helps preserve touch, fit and long-term performance.
