FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While the Air Jordan 3 has heritage in basketball, this retro OG model is primarily designed as a lifestyle and streetwear trainer. It offers good ankle support for casual wear, but may not provide the specialized performance features required for intense basketball play.

How do I find my correct UK shoe size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or consult the official Jordan Brand sizing guide. Generally, measure your foot from heel to toe and compare it to the provided measurements for UK sizes.

How often should I clean my Air Jordan 3 trainers?

It's recommended to clean them after each significant wear, especially if they have been exposed to dirt or moisture. Regular cleaning helps maintain their appearance and longevity.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended. The materials, particularly the premium leather and the AIR unit, can be damaged by the washing machine's agitation and heat.

What does 'OG' mean in the shoe's name?

'OG' typically stands for 'Original Gangster' and is used in sneaker culture to denote a shoe that is a faithful reissue of the original colorway and design from its initial release.

What is the "Spring Is In The Air" theme referring to?

The theme refers to the subtle green accents and the clean white color palette, which are intended to evoke a fresh, springtime feeling, aligning with the collection's name.

How does the AIR unit provide cushioning?

The AIR unit is a pressurized air pocket embedded in the sole that absorbs impact upon landing and provides a responsive feel, contributing to lightweight comfort throughout the day.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thin socks initially. Leather will stretch slightly with wear. Consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness is significant.

Creasing on the leather upper

Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, avoid over-tightening laces and store with shoe trees. For minor creases, steaming and stuffing can help.

Traction feels reduced

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean. Debris or smooth surfaces can reduce grip. Clean the sole with a damp cloth.

Discoloration on the white leather

Clean immediately with a damp cloth. For persistent stains, use a specialized leather cleaner. Protect from harsh chemicals and excessive sunlight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Designed for adult males, the sizing is based on UK adult foot sizes. They are compatible with a wide range of casual wear, including jeans, shorts, and athleisure outfits.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the premium leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a mild leather cleaner.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to clean the rubber sole. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.
  3. Lining Care: For the textile lining, spot clean with a damp cloth. Ensure the shoes are air-dried completely away from direct heat.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to protect them from dust and potential damage. Avoid storing in direct sunlight.
