FAQs
Are these suitable for professional basketball?
While these are basketball-inspired, they are considered retro lifestyle shoes. Modern performance sneakers provide superior technology for competitive sports.
How should I clean the suede upper?
Use a specialized suede brush and eraser kit. Never machine wash the shoes, as this will destroy the suede material.
Does the shoe fit true to size?
Most users find the Air Jordan 6 fits true to size, though the inner sleeve provides a very snug fit. If you prefer a looser feel, consider half a size up.
Can I use waterproof spray on these?
Yes, using a suede-specific water repellent spray can help protect against light moisture and stains, but test on a small, hidden area first.
What is the primary material used?
The exterior features high-quality suede for a premium look and feel.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty inserting foot into the shoe
The inner sleeve can create a snug entry; ensure the heel tab is pulled back and the laces are fully loosened before sliding your foot in.
Surface marks or scuffs on the suede
Gently use a suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush to buff out marks. Avoid using water or standard cleaning soaps.
Lace lock sliding down
Check the spring mechanism inside the lace lock to ensure it is not obstructed by debris; ensure the laces are threaded properly through the center.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Jordan 6s last, proper care is essential. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust regularly. For deeper cleaning, utilize a specialized suede cleaner and avoid submerging the shoes in water. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the grey tones. Ensure the lace locks are fastened properly during wear to maintain the intended silhouette and support. If you plan on using custom insoles, note that the internal sleeve may require you to size up slightly to maintain comfort.
