FAQs
Is this shoe suitable for basketball?
The Air Jordan 9 Retro is designed as a lifestyle sneaker for casual wear and comfort. It is not engineered with the specific performance features required for playing basketball.
How should I clean the suede parts?
Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and maintain the texture. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner can be used, but always test on a small, hidden area first.
Are these trainers true to size?
Generally, the Air Jordan 9 Retro runs true to size for most wearers. However, individual fit can vary. It's recommended to consult sizing charts and consider trying them on if possible.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper is primarily constructed from crisp white leather, complemented by cool flint grey suede overlays.
When was the original colorway released?
The original 'Flint Grey French Blue' colorway of the Air Jordan 9 was released in 2002.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather can withstand light moisture, it's best to avoid wearing suede in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and staining.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather
Minor creasing is normal wear. To minimize, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid overly tight lacing.
Suede discoloration or stains
Use a dedicated suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, apply a suede cleaner sparingly and blot gently. Protect from water and moisture.
Uneven fit
Ensure laces are adjusted properly across all eyelets. Try wearing with appropriate socks. If persistent, check if the size is correct for your foot.
