Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If still uncomfortable, consider the specific fit characteristics of the Air Jordan 4 model; some find they run slightly snug. Ensure the laces are adjusted properly.

Nubuck material scuffing easily

Be mindful of your surroundings to avoid abrasive contact. Use a nubuck eraser for minor scuffs and a dedicated nubuck cleaning kit for more significant marks. Regular brushing helps maintain the nap.

Yellow accents getting dirty

Wipe the yellow sections gently with a damp cloth after each wear. For stubborn dirt, use a non-abrasive cleaner suitable for painted or dyed materials, testing in an inconspicuous area first.
