Troubleshooting

Suede color transfer to socks or light-colored clothing

This can sometimes occur with new suede items. Ensure the suede is completely dry. If the issue persists, consider using a suede sealant spray (test first) or be cautious when wearing with very light-colored clothing.

Creasing on the suede upper

Creasing is natural with suede and with wear. To minimize it, ensure proper fit. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shoe's shape.

Laces becoming dirty or worn

Laces can be gently hand-washed with mild soap and water and air-dried. If significantly worn or frayed, they can be easily replaced with standard sneaker laces.

Discomfort during initial wear

Like many new footwear items, the Air Jordan 4 may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort.

Care Instructions:

  • Suede Cleaning: Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dry dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water, as it can alter the texture and color of the suede.
  • Lace Care: Laces can be removed and hand-washed with mild detergent. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe box or dust bag to protect from dust and light exposure. Avoid storing in direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent color fading.
  • Protection: Consider using a suede protector spray to offer some resistance against water and stains, but always test on an inconspicuous area first.
