Product Information
Full details
The Jordan XXXV DNA (Ice Sole) is a high-top basketball sneaker designed for adult male players seeking advanced stability and cushioning. Its primary benefit lies in the innovative Eclipse plate and Zoom Air units, providing exceptional foot support and impact absorption during intense play. A potential caveat is its specialized design, which might be more than needed for casual wear. This sneaker features a striking black, white, and chile-red colorway with a white upper, black nubuck overlays, iridescent accents, and a hollowed Eclipse plate 2.0 for reduced weight. Flight wire cables ensure a locked-down fit, while the rubber outsole offers reliable traction.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
What is the main advantage of the Eclipse Plate 2.0?
The Eclipse Plate 2.0 provides enhanced stability and support for the foot while being hollowed out to reduce the shoe's overall weight, contributing to better agility.
How does the Zoom Air cushioning work?
Zoom Air units are pressurized air pockets embedded in the midsole. They provide responsive cushioning by compressing on impact and immediately returning to their original shape, offering excellent energy return.
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor courts?
While durable, the Jordan XXXV DNA is primarily designed for indoor court performance. The modified herringbone outsole provides optimal grip on clean indoor surfaces. Outdoor use may lead to faster wear of the outsole.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by the manufacturer. For this specific model, it's recommended to check the UK sizing, as provided in the product title (UK 15 in this case). Ensure a snug fit without being constricting.
What is the purpose of the flight wire cables?
The flight wire cables are strong, lightweight strands integrated into the upper that work with the lacing system to provide a secure, locked-down feel, enhancing stability during lateral movements.
Can these shoes be worn for casual purposes?
Yes, they can be worn casually due to their comfort and unique design, but their advanced performance features are best utilized for athletic activities like basketball.
How does the 'DNA' version differ from other Air Jordan XXXV models?
The 'DNA' designation often refers to specific colorways or design themes. This particular 'Ice Sole' version features a distinct black, white, and chile-red color scheme with iridescent accents and a translucent outsole.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and adjust the flight wire cables. Ensure you are using the correct lacing method for optimal comfort and fit.
Slipping occurs during play
Check if the court surface is clean and dry. Ensure the outsole is free from debris. Verify that the shoe's fit is secure and laces are properly tied.
Cushioning feels stiff initially
The Zoom Air units may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for a few shorter sessions to allow them to mold to your feet and for the cushioning to become more responsive.
Appearance of scuffs on the 'ice sole'
This is a common characteristic of translucent or 'ice' soles. Minor scuffs can often be cleaned with a melamine foam eraser. Deeper marks are typically cosmetic.
