Air Jordan 4 RM Sneaker - Black - UK 9.5

No, the Air Jordan 4 RM is designed as a leisure shoe, focusing on everyday comfort and style. While it features Max Air cushioning, it is not built for the specific demands of high-performance running or intense sports activities.

Max Air cushioning refers to Nike's visible Air technology, specifically engineered to provide maximum impact protection and a responsive, comfortable feel underfoot, especially in the heel area. It helps absorb shock and provides energy return.

The Air Jordan 4 RM generally fits true to size. We recommend trying your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up for comfort.

While the natural leather upper provides some protection, these shoes are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions may damage the leather. For best results, avoid heavy rain or consider applying a water-resistant spray suitable for leather footwear.

The frequency depends on how often you wear them and the conditions. For daily wear, a quick wipe-down with a damp cloth every week or two can keep them looking fresh. Deep cleaning with appropriate leather cleaner can be done as needed for heavier soiling.

As a low-to-mid top leisure sneaker, the Air Jordan 4 RM offers standard ankle support for casual wear, but it is not designed to provide the extensive ankle stability found in dedicated high-top athletic footwear.

While designed for immediate comfort, genuine leather can feel slightly stiff initially. Wear them for short periods to allow the material to soften and adapt to your foot's shape. The flexible construction will naturally become more supple over time.

Gently wipe the scuffed or dirty areas with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a small amount of mild leather cleaner applied to the cloth, then wipe clean. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Clean the rubber sole with a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and a mixture of mild soap and water. For tough stains, a sneaker cleaning solution specifically designed for rubber outsoles can be effective. Avoid soaking the entire shoe.

The Max Air unit is designed for durability, but cushioning can compress with extensive use. Ensure you are wearing the correct size to optimize cushioning performance. If comfort significantly decreases, it might indicate wear and tear over a prolonged period of use.

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free of debris, as dirt can reduce grip. While the rubber outsole provides good traction, extreme conditions like ice or heavily wet, slippery surfaces might still pose a challenge. Check the tread for excessive wear, which could also reduce grip.
