FAQs

What does 'GS' stand for in Air Jordan 11 Retro GS?

GS stands for 'Grade School,' indicating that this model is sized for younger individuals.

Are these shoes good for playing basketball?

While the Air Jordan 11 has a basketball heritage, this specific retro release is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker. For performance basketball, dedicated basketball shoes are recommended.

How do I clean the grey nubuck material?

Use a soft brush or a specialized nubuck cleaner. Avoid getting the nubuck overly wet, and always brush in one direction or use gentle circular motions.

Can adults wear the GS sizing?

Yes, adults with smaller feet can often fit into GS sizes. It's recommended to check sizing charts and try them on if possible, as the fit can differ slightly from adult sizes.

What is the significance of the 'Cool Grey' colorway?

The 'Cool Grey' is an iconic and highly sought-after colorway for the Air Jordan 11, first released in 2001 and reissued multiple times, making it a staple for collectors and fans.

How durable is the translucent outsole?

The translucent rubber outsole is designed for durability and traction for everyday wear. However, like most rubber outsoles, prolonged use on abrasive surfaces can lead to wear over time.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff initially

This is common with new leather and nubuck. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your feet.

Scuff marks on the patent leather mudguard

Minor scuffs can sometimes be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, consider using a specialized patent leather cleaner or a magic eraser very gently, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Discoloration of the translucent outsole

Translucent outsoles can naturally yellow over time due to oxidation and UV exposure. Consistent cleaning after wear can help slow this process. Storing them away from light also helps.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth to gently remove surface dust. For minor marks on the nubuck, a specialized nubuck cleaner or a dry eraser can be used cautiously. Avoid excessive moisture.
  • Cleaning the Patent Leather: Wipe the patent leather mudguard with a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt and smudges. Dry immediately with a soft, clean cloth.
  • Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush or cloth to clean the white Phylon midsole and the translucent rubber outsole. Ensure all soap residue is wiped away.
  • Laces: Remove laces for cleaning if heavily soiled. Hand wash with mild detergent and air dry.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the color and material integrity. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
