FAQs

Are these Jordan 5 Retros true to size?

Most users find that the Jordan 5 fits true to size, though those with wider feet may prefer to go up by half a size for extra room.

Can I put my Jordan 5s in the washing machine?

No. Never put suede trainers in a washing machine, as the water and agitation will ruin the suede texture and the adhesive bond of the sole.

How do I activate the glow-in-the-dark features?

Expose the glow-in-the-dark sections to a bright light source for several minutes, and they will naturally emit light when you enter a dark environment.

Is the material leather or suede?

This specific variant is constructed with premium suede for a soft, matte finish.

Can I replace the laces with different colors?

Yes, you can swap the standard laces for any length-compatible alternative to customize the look, though keeping the original laces helps maintain the classic aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Visible Air unit looking cloudy

Gently wipe the exterior with a damp microfiber cloth to remove dust; if internal fogging occurs, allow the shoe to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat.

Creasing in the toe box

Creasing is a natural characteristic of suede footwear; using a shoe tree when not in use can help the shoe retain its shape.

Outsole losing its translucency

Use a dedicated sneaker cleaning solution and a soft brush to remove dirt from the grooves, though some yellowing is a natural chemical process of the rubber aging.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Jordan 5s last, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for suede to gently remove surface dirt. Avoid water or liquid cleaners, as these can permanently damage the suede nap.
  2. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the translucent rubber parts to yellow prematurely.
  3. Weather Protection: Apply a high-quality water and stain repellent spray suitable for suede before your first wear to protect against spills and light rain.
  4. Lacing: Adjust the lace fastening to ensure a snug fit that prevents heel slippage without cutting off circulation to your midfoot.
