FAQs

What materials are the Air Jordan 13 Retro 'Black Flint' made of?

These trainers are constructed using a combination of leather, suede, and reflective mesh across the uppers.

Are these suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by performance designs, the 'Black Flint' retro is primarily intended for lifestyle and casual wear. They may not provide the necessary support and cushioning for intense basketball games.

How do I clean the holographic eye on the heel?

The holographic element should be cleaned gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive rubbing, which could damage the finish.

What does the 'Black Flint' colorway represent?

The 'Black Flint' colorway combines black, university red, flint grey, and white, drawing inspiration from the original 'Black Cat' Jordan designs for a sleek and timeless look.

When was the Air Jordan 13 Retro 'Black Flint' released?

This particular colorway was released on April 22, 2023.

Can I replace the laces if they get damaged?

Yes, the laces are replaceable. Standard shoelaces of a similar length and color (white) can be used as replacements.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, checking for debris, and reinserting it. A light dusting of talcum powder under the insole might also help.

Discoloration of white laces

Remove the laces and hand wash them with a mild detergent and water. For persistent stains, a gentle bleach solution (diluted) can be used sparingly, followed by thorough rinsing. Always air dry.

Material feels stiff initially

New leather and suede can be stiff. Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to break them in gradually. Applying a leather conditioner (specifically for sneakers) might also help soften the materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

As footwear, the Air Jordan 13 Retro 'Black Flint' requires no electronic setup. Upon receiving your pair, ensure they are the correct size and unlace them slightly to allow for easy insertion of your foot.

Compatibility:

These trainers are designed for male adults and are compatible with standard sock wear. They pair well with a wide range of casual apparel, including jeans, shorts, tracksuits, and t-shirts.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Uppers: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the leather and suede sections. Avoid excessive water. For stubborn marks on suede, consider a specialized suede cleaner.
  • Laces: White laces can be removed and hand-washed with mild detergent. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.
  • Sole: The rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. For scuff marks, a magic eraser can sometimes be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to maintain their shape.
