Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather upper

Minor creasing is a natural characteristic of leather. To minimize, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid bending the shoes excessively.

Yellowing of the translucent outsole

Over time, translucent outsoles can naturally yellow due to oxidation. This is a common aging process for such materials and often cannot be fully reversed. Specialized cleaning products might slightly reduce the effect.

Discomfort or poor fit

Ensure you have the correct size. If still uncomfortable, consider wearing them with different types of socks or breaking them in with short periods of wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and fit.

Compatibility: The Air Jordan 6 Retro ‘Red Oreo’ is designed for adult male foot sizes. It is compatible with standard sock wear. As a lifestyle shoe, it pairs well with a variety of casual outfits, from jeans to shorts.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the leather.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: A damp cloth or a soft brush can be used to clean the midsole and the translucent outsole. Mild soap and water can be applied for more stubborn marks, but rinse thoroughly.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources, such as radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the leather and adhesives.
  4. Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box, to protect them from dust and potential damage.
