FAQs

What does 'We The Best' refer to?

'We The Best' is DJ Khaled's personal brand and motto, incorporated into the design of this collaboration.

Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?

While inspired by performance heritage, these are primarily lifestyle sneakers designed for comfort and style in casual settings, not for rigorous athletic activities.

What is the material of the midsole?

The midsole is made of off-white polyurethane with Air-sole cushioning technology.

How should I clean the reflective tongue?

Gently wipe the reflective tongue with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth. Avoid excessive rubbing or abrasive materials.

What is the primary color of the shoe?

The primary color is 'Crimson Bliss', a vibrant coral-like hue, complemented by 'Leche Blue' accents and an off-white midsole.

What is the significance of the shark-tooth detailing?

The shark-tooth detailing on the midsole is a signature design element of the Air Jordan 5 model, inspired by World War II fighter planes.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these premium leather trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions, as moisture can damage the leather and materials. Using a leather protectant spray can offer some protection against light moisture.

Troubleshooting

Laces becoming dirty

Gently clean laces with mild soap and water, or replace them with a new pair if heavily soiled.

Leather creasing

Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and store with shoe trees or stuffing when not in use.

Color transfer from lining

Initial wear may see slight color transfer from the dyed lining, especially in humid conditions. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored socks or materials until the color sets.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As a pair of trainers, there is no specific setup required beyond lacing them to your preferred fit.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult male wear and are compatible with standard adult foot sizes (UK 12.5 in this variant). They pair well with a variety of casual outfits.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Clean the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the leather or the special branding.
  • Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protectant spray suitable for this type of leather to help repel water and stains. Allow the spray to dry completely before wearing.
