FAQs
What makes the "Bred Velvet" Air Jordan 11 different from the original "Bred"?
The primary difference is the material of the upper. Instead of traditional leather or patent leather, this version features a luxurious black velvet upper, offering a softer texture and a more premium look. The core "Bred" color scheme and silhouette remain consistent.
Are these suitable for playing basketball?
While the Air Jordan 11 is a classic basketball shoe, the velvet upper on this specific "Bred Velvet" model is more delicate and less durable than performance materials. It is recommended for lifestyle and fashion wear rather than athletic performance.
How do I clean the velvet material without damaging it?
Use a soft brush or a lightly damp cloth to clean the velvet. Avoid soaking the material. For tougher stains, a specialized velvet cleaner or a dry-cleaning solvent can be used cautiously, always testing on a small, hidden area first.
What does "Women's Exclusive" mean for the sizing?
It means the shoe was designed and released specifically for women's foot measurements and sizing conventions. It is advisable to consult the specific sizing chart provided to ensure the best fit.
Can I wear these in wet weather conditions?
It is not recommended to wear the velvet version in wet or damp conditions. The velvet material can easily absorb moisture, leading to staining, matting, and potential damage to the shoe's appearance and structure.
What is the typical lifespan of these sneakers with regular wear?
With proper care and regular, non-athletic wear, the Air Jordan 11 Retro Bred Velvet can last for several years. The durability of the velvet and the construction quality contribute to its longevity, but consistent care is key.
Are there other colorways available in the Air Jordan 11 with a velvet upper?
The Air Jordan 11 has featured velvet uppers in other colorways in the past, such as the "Velvet Night Maroon." However, the "Bred Velvet" is a specific iteration of the iconic "Bred" colorway with this luxurious material.
Troubleshooting
Velvet material appears matted or flattened.
Gently brush the velvet with a soft-bristled brush in the direction of the nap to restore its texture. A steam iron held at a distance can also help lift flattened fibers, but use with extreme caution.
Scuff marks on the white midsole.
Use a magic eraser or a soft cloth with a mild cleaning solution (like diluted dish soap) to gently scrub the scuff marks. Wipe clean with a damp cloth afterwards.
Red color from the outsole bleeding.
This is uncommon, but if observed, avoid excessive moisture. Ensure the shoes are fully dry before storing. Clean with a damp cloth rather than soaking.
