FAQs

What is the inspiration behind the CLOT x Air Jordan 14 Retro Low?

The design is inspired by the Terracotta Army, a collection of terracotta sculptures depicting the armies of Qin Shi Huang, China's first emperor. This is reflected in the earthy tones, armor-like textures, and cultural motifs.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is primarily constructed from premium suede.

How should I clean the suede material?

Use a soft suede brush for daily dust and dirt. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully. Always test cleaners on a small, hidden area first.

When was this sneaker released?

The CLOT x Air Jordan 14 Retro Low was released in February 2021.

Are these suitable for athletic performance?

While built on a performance-oriented silhouette, the collaboration's focus on premium materials and cultural design makes them more suited for casual wear and collection rather than intense athletic activity.

What does the Chinese coin represent?

The coin is stamped with a Chinese idiom that signifies prosperity and happiness, adding a layer of cultural meaning to the design.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet conditions, as moisture can damage the material and alter its appearance.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears matted or dull.

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush in one direction to restore its nap. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser or cleaner.

Color transfer from suede to socks.

This can occasionally happen with new suede. It's recommended to wear darker socks initially until any excess dye has been minimized through careful wear.

Creasing on the toe box.

Some creasing is natural with wear. To minimize, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid overly tight lacing.
