FAQs

What year were the Union LA x Air Jordan 4 Retro Off Noir released?

The Union LA x Air Jordan 4 Retro 'Off Noir' was released on October 17, 2020.

What are the main materials used in these trainers?

The trainers feature a primary upper made of black nubuck, with mesh detailing and leather accents.

Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?

While built on a classic basketball silhouette, these are primarily considered lifestyle and collector's items. They offer comfort and support for everyday wear but are not designed for rigorous athletic training.

How should I clean the nubuck material?

Use a suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized nubuck cleaner and a soft cloth. Avoid excessive water and allow to air dry naturally.

What makes this collaboration special?

This release is a collaboration between Union LA, a renowned streetwear boutique, and Jordan Brand, offering a unique design interpretation of the iconic Air Jordan 4 silhouette.

What are the standout color elements besides black?

The 'Off Noir' iteration features white mesh and eyelets, bright red Nike branding, a vibrant blue ankle collar, and a dark cream midsole.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

It is not recommended. The nubuck and leather materials are susceptible to water damage and staining. Use a water-repellent spray and avoid wearing them in rain or wet conditions.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise when walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between different parts of the shoe. Try applying a small amount of powder (like talcum powder) under the insole or in any areas where parts rub together. Ensure laces are not too tight.

Nubuck material getting wet

Immediately blot excess water with a dry cloth. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap of the nubuck.

Color transfer from blue ankle collar

This is less common but possible with friction or moisture. Ensure socks worn are also dark or of similar colors. If transfer occurs, use a specialized cleaner for leather and nubuck, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Creasing on the upper

Creasing is natural with leather and nubuck. To minimize it, use shoe trees when storing and avoid overly tight lacing. Ensure proper fit to prevent excessive bending.

  • Storage: Store the sneakers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape. Keep them in their original packaging or a shoe bag when not in use.
  • Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather and nubuck to offer protection against the elements. Reapply periodically according to the product's guidelines.
  • Lacing: Adjust laces as needed for a comfortable fit, ensuring not to overtighten which could stress the eyelets or upper.
