How should I store these sneakers?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in their original box to maintain their condition and shape.

When were these 'Thunder' Air Jordan 4s originally released?

The original 'Thunder' Air Jordan 4 colorway was released in 2006, with this particular retro release in GS sizing occurring in May 2023.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather upper

Minor creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, avoid overtightening laces and ensure proper fit. Store with shoe trees or stuffing to maintain shape.

Yellow accents appearing dull or dirty

Gently clean the yellow sections with a damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution. For stubborn dirt, use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a magic eraser very carefully.

Soles losing grip

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean. Dirt and debris can reduce traction. Clean with water and a brush. If wear is significant, consider professional assessment for replacement options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These are ready-to-wear footwear. Simply unbox and wear.

Compatibility:

Designed for unisex youth sizing (GS). Please refer to the size chart for accurate fit.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains on the leather and mesh, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush. Avoid excessive soaking.
  • Soles: Clean the rubber midsole and outsole with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be effective but use with caution.
  • Laces: Remove laces and hand wash them separately in warm, soapy water. Air dry completely before re-lacing.
  • Drying: Always air dry shoes away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box, to protect them from dust and damage.
