What material is the upper made of?

How should I clean the translucent outsole?

What is the purpose of the lace lock?
The lace lock is a design element that helps secure the laces and provides a customized fit, contributing to the shoe's unique aesthetic.
Is this shoe suitable for playing basketball?
While the Air Jordan 6 is a legendary basketball shoe, this retro version is primarily intended for lifestyle wear and collection. For intense on-court performance, modern performance basketball shoes are recommended.

The primary colors are White and Midnight Navy. The midsole is two-toned with Midnight Navy and White, and the outsole is icy semi-translucent.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise from the shoe
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the tongue and the shoe's interior. Try adjusting the lacing or applying a small amount of powder under the tongue.
Creasing on the leather upper
Creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize it, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid overly tight lacing. Do not attempt to remove existing creases.
Yellowing of the translucent outsole
This is a common characteristic of aged translucent rubber. It is primarily cosmetic and does not typically affect performance. Store away from light when not in use.
