Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them more to break them in. Ensure the laces are not tied too tightly, which can sometimes cause friction.
Minor scuffs or marks on leather
Use a clean, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap if necessary to gently wipe the affected area. For persistent marks, consider a leather cleaner specifically designed for sneakers.
Discoloration on woven areas
Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or direct sunlight for extended periods. Clean gently with a dry brush or a slightly damp cloth.

Care: To maintain the condition of your Air Jordan 1 Elevate High SP:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the leather and woven upper. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Suede/Woven Areas: For the woven sections and any suede elements, use a dedicated suede brush or a soft-bristled brush to gently clean. Avoid excessive moisture.
- Soles: The rubber outsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth or a brush. For deep cleaning, a specialized sole cleaner can be used.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources or prolonged exposure to sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and prevent creasing.
