Troubleshooting
Uneven fit or discomfort
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Refer to sizing charts and consider the specific fit of the Air Jordan 1 silhouette, which can vary slightly by release. Break-in periods may be necessary for new leather and denim.
Denim material scuffing or showing wear quickly
Be mindful of abrasive surfaces. For minor marks, try a gentle cleaning method. Consider applying a fabric protector spray designed for denim if appropriate.
Discoloration of Vachetta Tan overlays
Vachetta Tan leather can naturally patina and darken over time with exposure to oils and sunlight. This is a characteristic of the material. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or excessive moisture to manage the aging process.
