Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Jordan 11s maintain their look, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which helps prevent the icy blue outsole from oxidizing and yellowing. When cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the leather surfaces. For the midsole and outsole, a gentle brush with mild soap and water is recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubs that can damage the patent leather finish. Because these are standard UK adult sizes, choose your usual sneaker size for the best fit.
