FAQs

What material are the Air Jordan 12 Retro 'Cherry' made of?

The main upper is constructed from premium leather, and it features pebbled leather for the mudguards.

How should I clean the red leather upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher spots, a specialized leather cleaner applied sparingly with a soft cloth or brush is recommended. Avoid soaking the material.

Are these suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by a performance shoe, the Air Jordan 12 Retro 'Cherry' is primarily a lifestyle sneaker. It is best suited for casual wear and light activity, not intense athletic performance.

What does 'Retro' mean in the product name?

'Retro' indicates that this is a reissue or re-release of a classic sneaker model originally launched in the past, in this case, 1997.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these in heavy rain or wet conditions. The leather material can be damaged by excessive moisture. If they get wet, dry them thoroughly immediately with a soft cloth and allow them to air dry.

What other colors or sizes are available?

The Air Jordan 12 Retro 'Cherry' specifically refers to the red and silver colorway. This model is available in various men's UK sizes. Please check the product listing for available options.

How do I maintain the shine on the silver hardware?

The silver hardware can be gently wiped with a soft, dry cloth. For any tarnish, a mild metal polish designed for accessories can be used very carefully, ensuring it does not contact the leather or fabric.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on Leather

Some creasing is natural with leather wear. To minimize, avoid over-tightening laces and store with shoe trees. For minor creases, professional leather restoration tools might help, but avoid excessive use.

Scuffs on Mudguard

Gently clean scuff marks with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper scuffs, a magic eraser (used very lightly and tested on an inconspicuous area first) or specialized sneaker restoration products may be effective.

Discoloration

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. If discoloration occurs, it may be difficult to reverse fully. Store in a dark place and use appropriate leather care products.

Laces fraying

Replace frayed laces with new ones of similar length and material. Authentic Air Jordan replacement laces can be sourced from authorized retailers or reputable online stores.

Care: To maintain the pristine condition of your Air Jordan 12 Retro 'Cherry' trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains on the leather, a specialized leather cleaner can be applied sparingly with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
  2. Mudguards: Clean the pebbled mudguards gently with a damp cloth or a soft brush. Stubborn dirt can be removed with a mild soap and water solution, followed by drying.
  3. Laces: Remove laces and hand wash them separately in mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-inserting.
  4. Storage: Store the sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration or material degradation. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  5. Protection: Consider applying a leather protector spray designed for sneakers to offer a barrier against stains and moisture.
