FAQs

What makes the 'Concord' colorway iconic?

The 'Concord' colorway is iconic due to its clean white upper, black accents, signature patent leather, and striking icy blue translucent outsole, which was a groundbreaking design element when first introduced.

Can I wear these for actual basketball games?

While the Air Jordan 11 was originally a performance basketball shoe, the 2018 'Concord' retro is primarily considered a lifestyle sneaker due to its premium materials. It can handle light play, but for serious competition, modern basketball shoes offer more advanced performance features and durability.

How should I clean the icy blue outsole?

Use a damp cloth and mild soap with a soft brush. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, as this can damage the translucent material and cause micro-scratches.

Will the patent leather crease easily?

Patent leather can show creases over time, especially around the toe box. Proper storage and avoiding excessive bending can help minimize this. Minor creases can often be buffed out.

What is the main difference between this and other Air Jordan 11 models?

The 'Concord' is one of the original and most sought-after colorways of the Air Jordan 11, distinguished by its specific combination of white, black, patent leather, and the icy blue outsole.

Are these shoes unisex?

While listed for males, the Air Jordan 11 is a popular silhouette for all genders. Sizing is typically based on men's/adult sizing, so women may need to adjust their size accordingly (usually subtracting 1.5-2 sizes from their women's size).

What does 'Retro' mean in the product title?

Retro refers to a re-release of a classic sneaker model. The 'Retro' version aims to replicate the original design and materials of the shoe as closely as possible.

Troubleshooting

Patent leather appears scuffed or scratched.

Gently buff the area with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For more persistent marks, consider a leather conditioner specifically designed for patent leather, applied sparingly.

Translucent outsole seems discolored or yellowed.

Yellowing is a natural process for translucent outsoles over time. For minor discoloration, try cleaning with a specialized sole-cleaning product or a mixture of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide, applying carefully and allowing it to sit in sunlight for a short period (use with caution and test in an inconspicuous area first).

Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the shoe is new, wear it for short periods to break them in. Consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness is consistent across the width.
