FAQs

What materials are these sneakers made from?

These sneakers feature a premium 'Sail' leather upper and 'Game Royal' snakeskin accents on the collar and heel.

How do I properly clean the snakeskin parts?

The snakeskin should be cleaned very gently with a soft, dry brush to remove dust. Avoid harsh rubbing or excessive moisture. If light cleaning is needed, use a slightly damp cloth wiping only in the direction of the scales.

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball or other sports?

While the Air Ship has basketball heritage, this specific collaborative edition is designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. We recommend using them for daily fashion rather than athletic performance to preserve their unique materials and design.

What does 'aged sole unit' mean?

The 'aged sole unit' refers to the sole being intentionally treated to give it a vintage, slightly worn aesthetic from the start, contributing to the shoe's retro appeal.

Is this a limited edition release?

Yes, as a collaboration between Air Jordan and Awake NY, this Air Ship model is a special and often limited edition release, making it a desirable item for collectors.

How can I prevent leather creasing?

To help prevent significant creasing, store your sneakers with shoe trees when you are not wearing them. Also, try to avoid consistently bending your foot in the same way.

Troubleshooting

Leather creasing appears quickly

Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather. To minimize it, use shoe trees consistently when not wearing the sneakers. Avoid folding or compacting the shoes during storage.

Snakeskin scales appear to be lifting

This can sometimes occur with exotic leathers. Handle the snakeskin accents very gently. If scales lift, a tiny amount of specialized leather adhesive applied with a toothpick can carefully re-secure them. Consult a professional shoe repair specialist if unsure.

Slight discoloration or yellowing on the 'aged sole unit'

The 'aged sole unit' is designed with a specific aesthetic. Minor variations in tone are part of this design. For general cleaning, use mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals that could alter the intended aged appearance.

Sizing feels too tight or loose

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the fit is still uncomfortable, consider checking a detailed size chart for the Air Ship model or consult product reviews for sizing recommendations, as shoe fit can vary. Info needed: Sizing advice is general, individual fit may vary.

Product Care & Maintenance

Proper care is essential to maintain the premium look and longevity of your Air Jordan x Awake NY Air Ship sneakers, especially given their leather and snakeskin components.

  • Cleaning the Leather Upper: Gently wipe the 'Sail' leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied sparingly with a soft brush, then wipe clean. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Caring for Snakeskin Accents: The 'Game Royal' snakeskin requires delicate handling. Use a very soft, dry brush to remove dust and dirt. Avoid harsh rubbing or excessive moisture, which can damage the scales. If absolutely necessary, a slightly damp cloth can be used very gently, wiping in the direction of the scales.
  • Sole Cleaning: The aged sole unit can be cleaned with a mild soap and water solution using a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly and air dry.
  • Drying: Always allow your sneakers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as these can cause leather to crack or snakeskin to warp.
  • Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing when not in use. Consider storing them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag to protect them from dust.
