FAQs
What does 'PF' stand for in Air Jordan 36 PF?
PF typically stands for 'Performance Fit,' a designation often used for models designed with considerations for players in Asian markets, which sometimes implies a slightly wider base.
How do I clean the special 'Year of the Tiger' accents?
The special accents should be cleaned gently with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the intricate design or colors.
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball courts?
While durable, these shoes are primarily designed for indoor court performance. Extended use on abrasive outdoor surfaces can accelerate wear on the outsole.
What is the inspiration behind the 'Year of the Tiger' design?
The design is inspired by the Lunar New Year (Chinese New Year) and specifically honors the 'Year of the Tiger' with thematic patterns and colors.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the shoe's structure, materials, and adhesive.
What shoe size is this guide for?
This specific guide entry is for UK size 12, but the design and care instructions apply to all available sizes of the Air Jordan 36 PF 'Year of the Tiger'.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or too loose.
Adjust the lacing pattern. The PF fit may also require trying a half-size up or down depending on individual foot width.
Dirt or scuff marks on the material.
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. For stubborn marks, a specialized sneaker cleaner may be used sparingly.
Reduced grip on court surfaces.
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. Court conditions can also affect grip; clean courts offer the best traction.
