FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, offering comfort and style. While they have cushioning, they are not optimized for high-impact running and may lack the specific support and technology required for serious athletic training.

How do I determine the correct UK size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or consult Jordan Brand's official sizing guide. It's often recommended to try them on if possible, as retro models can sometimes fit differently.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the leather, adhesives, and internal cushioning system. Always clean them by hand using the methods described in the 'Care' section.

What does "Spring Is In The Air" refer to?

This nickname and the subtle green accents on the shoe are meant to evoke a sense of springtime, aligning with the collection's theme and offering a fresh aesthetic to the classic Air Jordan 3 silhouette.

Does the elephant print wear off?

The elephant print is a textured overlay and is generally durable. However, excessive abrasion or improper cleaning can potentially affect its appearance over time. Gentle care will help preserve it.

What is the main difference from other Air Jordan 3 models?

The primary distinction lies in the colorway and specific accents. This model features a clean white base with subtle green details to fit the 'Spring Is In The Air' theme, alongside the classic Air Jordan 3 silhouette and features like the AIR unit and elephant print.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sounds from the sole

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between sole layers or friction. Try walking on different surfaces to see if it persists. Ensure the shoes are completely dry.

Leather creasing

Creasing is natural for leather. To minimize its appearance, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid over-tightening laces, which can create pressure points.

Reduced traction

Check the rubber outsole for excessive dirt or debris. Clean the tread pattern with a damp cloth or brush to restore grip.

Discomfort during wear

Ensure you have the correct size. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. Consider using specialized insoles for added comfort if needed.

Care: To maintain the condition of your Air Jordan 3 Retro trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild leather cleaner and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to clean the rubber outsole. For tougher grime, a mixture of soap and water can be used, followed by a thorough rinse with a clean, damp cloth.
  3. Lining Care: Allow the textile lining to air dry naturally. Avoid direct heat sources.
  4. Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
