FAQs
Is the Air Jordan 3 Neapolitan true to size?
Most users find that the Air Jordan 3 fits true to size. If you have particularly wide feet, you may prefer to go up a half size for maximum comfort.
Can I play basketball in these trainers?
While these are based on a performance basketball silhouette, they are intended for lifestyle wear. Frequent high-intensity sports use may accelerate wear on the premium leather and midsole.
How do I protect the light-colored leather?
Using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather before your first wear can help provide a protective barrier against spills and dirt.
What is the inspiration behind this colorway?
The 'Neapolitan' nickname comes from the three-tone color scheme of white, brown, and pale pink, which mimics the composition of classic Neapolitan ice cream.
How should I store these trainers?
Keep them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag in a climate-controlled area to prevent leather cracking and material degradation.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt or scuffs on the white leather
Gently clean the affected area using a specialized leather sneaker cleaner and a soft-bristled brush.
Creasing in the toe box area
Use a sneaker shield or shoe tree when not wearing the shoes to help maintain the structure of the leather.
Soles showing slight discoloration
Use a dedicated sole whitening solution specifically formulated for foam-based midsoles to carefully remove surface yellowing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers feature delicate white tumbled leather and soft color accents, proper care is essential to extend their lifespan. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and a damp, microfiber cloth for deeper stains on the leather. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the leather grain or discolor the pale pink eyelets. For the Elephant Print overlays, gently wipe with a soft cloth to avoid scratching the surface. It is recommended to store these in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature yellowing or fading of the color-blocked elements.
