FAQs
What year did the Air Jordan 11 Cool Grey release?
The Air Jordan 11 Cool Grey originally debuted in 2001, with a highly anticipated retro release in December 2021.
What materials are used in the Air Jordan 11 Cool Grey (2021)?
The shoe features a Cool Grey Durabuck upper, patent leather overlays, a white midsole, and an icy blue translucent rubber outsole.
How do I clean the Durabuck material?
Gently brush off dry dirt with a suede brush. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, testing on a small area first.
Are these shoes good for playing basketball?
While the Air Jordan 11 was originally a basketball shoe, the 2021 retro is primarily considered a lifestyle sneaker. It offers decent grip but lacks the advanced performance features of modern basketball shoes.
Will the translucent sole turn yellow?
Translucent outsoles can naturally yellow over time due to oxidation and UV exposure. Storing them away from light can help mitigate this.
What does 'Durabuck' mean?
Durabuck is a synthetic material used by Nike that mimics the look and feel of nubuck leather, offering a soft texture and durability.
Where is the Jumpman logo located?
The Jumpman logo is embroidered on the collar of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Yellowing on translucent outsole
This is a natural aging process for translucent outsoles. While it cannot be reversed, gentle cleaning with specialized products may slow the process. Storing the shoes in a cool, dark place can help.
Scuffs on patent leather
Use a soft, dry cloth to gently buff out minor scuffs. For deeper marks, a specialized patent leather cleaner or a small amount of petroleum jelly applied with a soft cloth can help restore shine.
Dirt on Durabuck upper
Use a soft brush (like a suede brush) to gently remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a slightly damp cloth. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.
