The primary colors are University Blue, Tech Grey, White, and Black, with speckled Cement Grey detailing.

Is this shoe suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by a basketball legend, this retro model is primarily designed for lifestyle wear and casual use, not for performance basketball.

How should I clean the suede material?

Use a suede brush for regular cleaning and a suede eraser for tougher marks. Avoid water and harsh chemicals.

What does 'UNC PE' refer to in relation to this shoe?

'UNC PE' refers to a Player Exclusive version made for the University of North Carolina (MJ's alma mater). This release closely resembles those rare PEs.

What is the material of the upper?

Does the shoe have good cushioning?

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, try a suede eraser.

Creasing in the toe box

This is natural with wear. To minimize, avoid flexing the shoe excessively when not worn and consider using shoe trees for storage.

Discoloration from water exposure

Avoid getting suede wet. If water contact occurs, blot immediately with a dry cloth and allow to air dry naturally. Suede dye may bleed if significantly wet.

Laces are difficult to keep tied

Ensure laces are dry and consider double-knotting them for a more secure fit.

Compatibility:

Care Instructions:

Suede Care: Use a suede brush regularly to remove surface dirt and maintain the nap. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be used gently. Avoid water and harsh cleaning agents which can damage the suede.

Avoid Harsh Conditions: Do not expose the shoes to extreme heat, prolonged direct sunlight, or excessive moisture.
