FAQs
Is the number 45 on the heel intentional?
Yes, the 2016 retro features the #45 in recognition of Michael Jordan’s comeback, which differs from the standard #23 found on most Jordan 11s.
Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?
While they were originally high-performance basketball shoes, they are now widely considered lifestyle footwear for collectors.
How should I clean the patent leather?
Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe away debris. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the shiny finish.
Do these sneakers fit true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult UK sizing for Air Jordan products.
How do I prevent the soles from yellowing?
Store them in a climate-controlled environment away from light, as UV exposure accelerates the yellowing of icy outsoles.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the toe box area
Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the shape and minimize deep creases.
Yellowing of the translucent outsole
This is a natural aging process for translucent rubber; keep out of direct UV light to slow the oxidation process.
Surface dirt on patent leather
Gently wipe with a soft, microfiber cloth dampened with water and mild soap, then buff dry immediately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Air Jordan 11s in top condition, ensure you store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause yellowing of the translucent outsole. When cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth for the upper and a specialized sneaker cleaning solution for the midsole. Always ensure you are selecting the correct UK size, as the fit is standard for adult male footwear. Check your laces for tightness to ensure comfort during long periods of walking.
