What materials are used in the Air Jordan 4 x Union 'Guava Ice'?

The sneaker primarily features a leather upper in the 'Guava Ice' color, accented with nylon and other materials typical of the Air Jordan 4 silhouette. The sole is made of rubber.

How do I clean the leather parts of the shoe?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the leather. For more stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by a thorough wipe with a clean, damp cloth. Always allow the shoes to air dry.

Is this shoe suitable for playing basketball?

While the Air Jordan 4 has basketball heritage, this specific collaborative release is best suited for lifestyle wear. It is not optimized for the demands of modern basketball performance.

What does 'Guava Ice' refer to?

'Guava Ice' is the name of the primary colorway used on this Air Jordan 4 collaboration, describing the pastel pink hue of the shoe's upper.

How can I maintain the foldable tongue?

The nylon tongue is designed to be folded. Avoid excessive force when manipulating it. When cleaning, use gentle methods suitable for nylon fabric.

Are there different colorways or versions of the Union x Air Jordan 4?

Yes, besides the 'Guava Ice' colorway, there was another highly sought-after release, the 'Desert Moss' colorway, also a collaboration between Union and Jordan Brand on the Air Jordan 4 silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather upper

Some creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize it, avoid excessively bending the shoe when walking and store with shoe trees. Use crease protectors if desired.

Discoloration of the 'Guava Ice' color

Protect the sneakers from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean with appropriate leather care products and avoid harsh chemicals.

Wear on the rubber sole

Normal wear and tear is expected. For significant damage, professional sole repair or replacement might be considered, though this is uncommon for lifestyle wear.
