Care Instructions
Proper care will significantly extend the life and appearance of your Air Jordan 4s, especially given their leather construction:
- Initial Protection: Consider applying a sneaker protector spray designed for leather and textile materials. This creates a barrier against water and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: After each wear, use a soft brush or damp cloth to wipe off any loose dirt or dust.
- Spot Cleaning: For stubborn marks, use a dedicated sneaker cleaning solution. Apply a small amount to a soft brush or cloth, gently scrub the affected area, and then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
- Leather Care: Use a leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather soft and prevent cracking. Apply with a microfiber cloth and buff gently.
- Sole Cleaning: Clean the rubber sole with a brush and cleaning solution to maintain traction and appearance.
- Drying: Always air dry your sneakers at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Washing Machine: Do not put your Air Jordan 4s in a washing machine, as this can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning.
