FAQs
Is this shoe suitable for athletic performance?
While the Air Jordan 4 was originally a performance basketball shoe, this retro model is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear.
How do I ensure the correct fit for my UK 12 size?
The Air Jordan 4 generally fits true to size, but wearing the thickness of socks you intend to use daily will help confirm a comfortable fit.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives used in the construction of the shoe.
What should I do if the leather gets wet?
Pat dry with a soft cloth immediately and let the sneakers air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
Are these suitable for all weather conditions?
The white leather is best suited for dry conditions; avoid wearing in heavy rain or mud to prevent permanent staining.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your sneakers remain in top condition, start by applying a high-quality water and stain repellent spray upon arrival. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush and a mild cleaning solution specifically formulated for leather. Avoid using harsh detergents or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the material integrity. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white leather from yellowing. Ensure you have the correct UK 12 sizing before use to prevent unnecessary creasing caused by an improper fit.
