FAQs

What makes the "University Blue" colorway special?

The "University Blue" colorway is a highly sought-after iteration of the Air Jordan 4, featuring a vibrant blue suede upper contrasted with grey, white, and black accents, making it a standout design.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to the product's size chart and measure your foot from heel to toe. Compare your measurement to the UK sizing provided. If unsure between sizes, it's often recommended to size up slightly for comfort, especially with suede materials.

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While the Air Jordan 4 has basketball roots, the "University Blue" model is primarily considered a lifestyle sneaker. For intense athletic performance, modern basketball-specific shoes are recommended. However, they offer good comfort and support for casual wear.

How do I clean the mesh parts of the shoe?

The mesh panels can be cleaned by gently wiping them with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.

What is the material of the Air Jordan 4 "University Blue"?

The primary material for the upper is premium suede. The shoe also features mesh detailing and synthetic overlays.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet conditions, as water can stain and damage the material. Using a suede protectant spray can offer some protection, but thorough drying is essential if they do get wet.

What year was the Air Jordan 4 "University Blue" released?

This specific colorway was released on April 29, 2021.

What other sizes are available for the Air Jordan 4 "University Blue"?

This model is available in various sizes, including UK 7, 8, 8.5, 9, 11, 12, and 15. Please check availability for your specific size.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth, ensuring not to oversaturate the material. Allow to air dry completely.

Laces are dirty

Remove the laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water. Let them air dry thoroughly before re-lacing.

Shoes feel slightly tight

Wear the shoes with mid-weight socks for a short period to allow the suede to adapt to your foot. Avoid excessive force or stretching.

Color transfer from suede

This can sometimes occur with new suede. Ensure socks are of a color that won't show dye transfer. Using a suede protector spray can help mitigate this issue.
