FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Eclipse Plate 2.0?

The Eclipse Plate 2.0 is designed to provide exceptional foot stability and support, crucial for lateral movements and quick changes of direction on the basketball court.

How does the cushioning system work in the Air Jordan 35?

The shoe features Zoom Air units under the heel and forefoot. These units offer responsive impact cushioning for landings and enhanced support for explosive movements.

Are these shoes suitable for outdoor play?

While the outsole is durable, the Air Jordan 35 'DNA' is primarily designed for indoor basketball courts. Outdoor surfaces can accelerate wear and tear on the materials and outsole tread.

How do the flight wire cables enhance performance?

The flight wire cables are integrated into the shoe's lacing system. They work in conjunction with the Eclipse Plate to create a secure, locked-down fit, preventing the foot from sliding within the shoe.

What does 'DNA' refer to in the shoe's name?

'DNA' in this context refers to a design ethos that emphasizes core performance elements and perhaps references heritage design cues, linking the current innovation to the brand's legacy.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The shoe is designed to be lightweight for its performance features. The hollowed Eclipse plate contributes to minimizing overall weight without compromising structural integrity.

What is the recommended break-in period for these shoes?

Like most performance basketball shoes, a short break-in period of a few hours of light activity or a couple of practice sessions is recommended to allow the cushioning and materials to adapt to your foot.

Troubleshooting

Foot feels unstable or loose inside the shoe

Re-adjust the lacing system. Ensure the flight wire cables are snug and that the laces are tied securely. Consider using different lacing techniques for a more customized lockdown.

Cushioning feels too firm or not responsive enough

The Zoom Air units may require a break-in period. Wear the shoes for several non-strenuous activities to allow them to adapt to your foot. Ensure you are within the recommended weight range for optimal cushioning performance.

Traction is reduced on dusty courts

Wipe the outsole frequently with a damp cloth or use a court spray to remove dust buildup. Consistent cleaning of the rubber tread will restore optimal grip.

Leather or nubuck upper appears creased or dirty

Use a soft brush to gently remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, follow the care instructions for using a damp cloth and mild soap solution. Address creases by using shoe trees during storage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Air Jordan 35 'DNA' is designed for immediate play. Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets and flight wire loops. Adjust the lacing to achieve a snug, locked-down fit that is comfortable for your foot shape.

Compatibility: These are basketball-specific shoes designed for indoor court performance. They are best suited for adult male players across various skill levels who prioritize support, cushioning, and stability.

Care: To maintain the condition of your Air Jordan 35 'DNA':

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the leather and nubuck upper. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as these can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain the shoe's shape.
  4. Outsole: Regularly check the rubber outsole for debris and clean it with a brush if necessary to maintain optimal traction.
