FAQs
How should I clean the nubuck upper?
Use a brush specifically designed for nubuck and suede. Avoid water and liquid cleaning agents unless they are specifically formulated for this material.
Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?
While based on a performance basketball design, the premium materials and fashion-focused finish make these more suitable for lifestyle and casual use.
What is the best way to store them?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in the original box with shoe trees inside to keep their form.
Can I use a standard shoe cleaner on these?
Standard shoe cleaners are often too harsh for suede and nubuck. Only use products marked safe for these materials.
Are these true to size?
The Air Jordan 5 generally fits true to size for most adults, though personal preference for fit may vary.
Troubleshooting
Surface dirt on suede
Use a dry, soft-bristle suede brush and gently rub in the direction of the nap to lift off debris.
Creasing in the toe box
Use plastic or wooden shoe trees when not in use to help the shoe maintain its original shape.
Water spots on material
Blot gently with a clean, dry microfiber cloth immediately; do not rub. Allow to air dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers are crafted from delicate suede and nubuck, proper care is essential to maintain their aesthetic integrity. Avoid cleaning with harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes. Instead, use a specialized soft-bristle brush designed for suede to gently remove surface debris. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking or warping. We recommend applying a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before initial wear to create a protective barrier. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
