FAQs

What does 'Sashiko' refer to in the shoe's name?

'Sashiko' refers to a traditional Japanese form of embroidery that involves decorative stitching, which inspired the quilted patchwork design and unique stitching patterns on this Air Jordan 4 model.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the Air Jordan 4 Retro SE 'Sashiko' is not waterproof. The canvas and twill materials offer some resistance to light moisture but are not designed for wet conditions.

How do the canvas and twill materials compare to traditional leather?

Canvas and twill offer a different texture and aesthetic. They can be more breathable than some leathers but may also be more susceptible to staining and require specific cleaning methods to maintain their appearance.

What is the primary color scheme of this sneaker?

The primary color scheme features Deep Ocean Blue, cement grey, and Sail, with small accents of Fire Red.

What year was this shoe released?

The Air Jordan 4 Retro SE 'Sashiko' Deep Ocean was first made available on December 5th, 2020.

Can I wear these for athletic activities like basketball?

While they feature Air Jordan cushioning, these are best suited for casual wear. For performance basketball, dedicated basketball shoes are recommended.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the upper materials

Some creasing is natural with canvas and twill. To minimize, avoid overtightening laces and consider using shoe trees when not in use. For minor creases, a cool iron with a protective cloth can sometimes help, but proceed with extreme caution on the unique patchwork.

Discoloration of light-colored accents

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or colored fabrics that may transfer dye. Clean any marks immediately with a recommended cleaning solution for light materials.

Laces becoming dirty

Gently clean laces with a damp cloth and mild soap, or remove them and hand wash separately before air drying.
