FAQs

What inspired the '72-10' nickname?

The '72-10' nickname and design pay homage to Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls' record-breaking 72-10 regular season during the 1995-1996 NBA season.

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by basketball heritage, the low-top design provides less ankle support than traditional basketball shoes, making them more suited for lifestyle and casual wear rather than intense athletic performance.

How should I clean the patent leather parts?

Gently wipe the patent leather with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or materials that could cause scratches or dull the finish.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from premium black tumbled leather, complemented by the signature patent leather mudguard.

What colors are featured on the outsole?

The semi-translucent sole features red and black carbon fiber detailing visible through the clear rubber.

Are there other colorways or versions available?

This specific model is the '72-10' colorway. However, the Air Jordan 11 series has seen various iterations and colorways over the years.

What does the embroidered tongue tag say?

The embroidered tongue tag reads 'Inspired by the most historic season led by the greatest player ever.'

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from the sole

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Ensure the shoes are completely dry. If the issue persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Creases on the patent leather

Creases are a natural occurrence with patent leather over time. Avoid flexing the shoe excessively when not wearing it. Store with shoe trees to help maintain shape.

Discoloration of the translucent sole

Yellowing can occur due to oxidation over time or exposure to certain chemicals. Clean regularly with a mild cleaner. For significant yellowing, specialized sole brighteners might be an option, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Tight fit

Leather shoes can take time to break in. Wear them for short periods initially. Ensure you have selected the correct size; refer to sizing charts if unsure. Lacing techniques can also adjust fit.
