FAQs

How do I properly clean the suede material?

For routine maintenance, use a suede brush to remove dirt. For spots, a suede eraser works well. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner and always follow the product instructions, testing on a hidden area first.

Are these trainers suitable for playing basketball or other sports?

While these are trainers, the Jordan Air Jordan 40 Suede model is primarily designed for casual wear and style. For intense sports like basketball, we recommend shoes specifically engineered for performance and support, which typically have different materials and sole constructions.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

It is strongly advised to avoid wearing suede trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions. Suede is highly susceptible to water damage, which can lead to staining, discoloration, and texturizing. Always apply a suede protector spray for light moisture resistance.

How can I protect the suede from future stains?

Applying a high-quality suede protector spray before the first wear and reapplying it periodically is the best way to guard against water and stains. Regular brushing also helps to maintain the suede's integrity.

What is the best way to store my Air Jordan 40s?

Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees (preferably cedar) can help absorb moisture and maintain the shoe's original shape, preventing creases and deformation.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Jordan trainers generally run true to size for adult men. We recommend selecting your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. If you are between sizes, consider trying both or consult a size guide specific to Jordan footwear.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or matted

Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the nap in one direction. This lifts the fibers and restores the original texture and vibrancy.

Minor scuffs or marks on suede

Gently rub the affected area with a suede eraser. For tougher marks, use a small amount of suede cleaner, testing first on an inconspicuous spot.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable

Wear them for short periods during the first few days to allow the suede and sole to soften and conform to your foot shape. Ensure you have the correct size.

Unpleasant odor from inside the trainers

Allow the trainers to air out after each use. You can also use shoe deodorizers, cedar shoe trees, or sprinkle baking soda inside overnight (and then vacuum out).

Stains from water or liquids

If the suede gets wet, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub. If a water stain appears once dry, lightly dampen the entire shoe with a clean cloth and allow it to dry naturally to prevent water rings, then brush the nap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting the most from your Jordan Air Jordan 40 trainers involves understanding how to properly wear, pair, and maintain them, especially given their premium suede construction.

First-Time Wear

  1. Try Them On: Ensure the fit is comfortable with your preferred socks. Suede can be snug initially but will adapt slightly over time.
  2. Initial Protection: Before first wear, it's highly recommended to apply a suede protector spray. This creates a barrier against water and stains, crucial for suede footwear.
  3. Break-In Period: Like most new shoes, a short break-in period may be needed. Wear them for shorter durations initially to allow them to conform to your feet.

Compatibility

  • Wardrobe: These trainers are highly versatile. They pair well with casual wear like jeans, cargo pants, and shorts, but can also complement smart-casual outfits with chinos or darker trousers.
  • Occasion: Best suited for casual outings, social events, and daily wear. While comfortable, they are not designed for intense athletic activities or demanding outdoor conditions.
  • Weather: Due to the suede material, these trainers are best worn in dry weather. Avoid heavy rain, snow, or muddy environments to prevent damage and difficult cleaning.

Care & Maintenance

Maintaining the premium look of your suede Jordan Air Jordan 40 trainers requires specific care:

  1. Regular Brushing: Use a suede brush regularly (ideally after each wear) to remove dirt, dust, and restore the nap (the soft, fuzzy texture) of the suede.
  2. Spot Cleaning: For minor marks, use a suede eraser to gently rub away blemishes. Work in one direction to avoid further damage to the nap.
  3. Deep Cleaning (Rarely): If more extensive cleaning is needed, use a specialized suede cleaner. Apply sparingly to a clean cloth, gently dab the stained area, then brush the nap once dry. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Protection is Key: Reapply a suede protector spray every few months, or more frequently if worn often, especially before forecasted wet weather.
  5. Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
  6. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
