FAQs

Are the Air Jordan 13 Retro Bred true to size?

Most users find the Air Jordan 13 fits true to size. If you prefer a looser fit for thicker socks, consider going half a size up.

How should I clean the leather parts of the shoe?

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away dirt, followed by a clean, dry cloth.

Can I wear these for playing basketball?

Yes, they were originally designed for performance on the court, featuring responsive cushioning and excellent traction.

What does '3M' mean regarding the mesh?

3M refers to a reflective material coating applied to the ballistic mesh, which glows when exposed to direct light.

Is the green hologram fragile?

It is a decorative element made of plastic; while durable, it can be scratched or scuffed if handled roughly.

Does this model come with original packaging?

Please verify with your specific retailer, as packaging for 2017 retro releases can vary based on secondary market condition.

Troubleshooting

Hologram appears cloudy or scratched

Gently wipe the surface with a microfiber cloth and a very small amount of plastic polish, being careful not to touch the surrounding leather.

Sole losing traction over time

Clean the herringbone grooves with a soft brush and warm water to remove embedded debris and restore grip.

Creasing on the leather upper

Use cedar shoe trees when not in use to help the shoe retain its shape and minimize deep creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Jordan 13s remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the leather upper. For the hologram and mesh areas, use only a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid harsh chemical cleaners which can cloud the hologram finish. Ensure the shoes are stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking and fading of the iconic red accents. Because these are high-top trainers, ensure laces are adjusted for proper ankle support while maintaining enough flexibility for natural movement.
