Product Information

Full details

The Air Jordan 9 Retro in 'Dark Charcoal University Gold' is designed for adult males seeking a stylish, iconic sneaker with a distinct aesthetic. Its key benefit is offering a blend of classic design with a bold colorway, making a statement while maintaining wearability. A potential caveat is that the nubuck material may require specific care to maintain its appearance. This iteration of the AJ9 features a Dark Charcoal and Black nubuck upper, highlighted by University Gold accents on the inner lining, heel embroidery, and midsole Jumpman logo. It retains original design elements like 'Air Jordan' patches on the tongue and a comfortable build.

What material is the upper made of?

How should I clean the nubuck material?

Use a suede brush for dry dirt and a specialized nubuck cleaner for stains, always testing on a small area first and avoiding excessive moisture.

Is this shoe suitable for basketball performance?

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with different types of socks. Break them in gradually by wearing them for short periods.

Nubuck material is scuffed or stained

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized nubuck cleaning guide or product, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Heel slips when walking

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Ensure laces are tied securely, adjusting the tightness in the ankle area. Consider using heel grips or thicker socks if the issue persists.
