FAQs
What does 'Mismatched' mean for these sneakers?
The 'Mismatched' design means that the color patterns and placements on the left shoe are a mirrored version of the right shoe, rather than being identical. This creates a unique, asymmetrical look for each pair.
Are these sneakers suitable for professional basketball games?
While they offer good comfort and support for casual play, they are primarily designed as a lifestyle and fashion sneaker. For elite professional play, athletes may prefer shoes with more specialized performance technology.
What material are the Nike JA 1 'Mismatched' made of?
These sneakers are crafted with premium leather for durability and a luxurious feel, combined with breathable mesh and supportive overlays.
How do I clean the textured silver Swoosh?
Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the Swoosh. Avoid abrasive cleaners or stiff brushes that could damage the texture.
Can I machine wash these sneakers?
No, machine washing is not recommended. Hand washing with mild soap and water for the mesh parts, and gentle cleaning for the leather, is the best approach.
What sizes are available?
These are available in adult male UK shoe sizes. Please refer to the product listing for the specific size range offered.
What is the "12" heel embroidery?
The "12" embroidery on the heel is a signature detail related to the player Ja Morant, referencing his jersey number.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces, or if persistent, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole may help.
Leather creasing
Creasing is natural for leather. To minimize severe creases, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.
Discoloration after cleaning
Ensure you are using appropriate cleaning agents for leather and mesh. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first and avoid abrasive cleaners.
