FAQs
Are the Jabbar Lo shoes suitable for sports?
While rooted in basketball heritage, these are lifestyle shoes. They are intended for casual, everyday wear rather than intense athletic performance.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adults, though the suede upper may offer a snug fit initially.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, washing machines can severely damage the suede material and degrade the structural integrity of the shoe.
How do I maintain the purple color?
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and use a high-quality suede protector spray regularly.
Is the leather lining breathable?
The leather lining is comfortable and durable, though it does not provide the same level of ventilation as synthetic mesh trainers.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dusty
Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift the fibers back into their original position.
Water spots on the suede
Allow the shoe to air dry naturally away from heat sources, then use a suede eraser to buff out the mark.
Scuffs on the rubber cupsole
Wipe the rubber edges with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution, then dry immediately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Jabbar Lo shoes remain in top condition, follow these care steps:
- Protective Spray: Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first wear to create a barrier against the elements.
- Cleaning: Use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt or debris after each use. If deeper cleaning is needed, use a dedicated suede eraser or a light foam cleaner designed specifically for delicate materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the purple color to fade over time.
- Compatibility: These shoes follow standard UK adult sizing. Because of the suede construction, they may feel slightly snug at first but will mold to your foot shape over time.
