Hi, I wonder if Jordan XII playoff that are more than 13 years old (release year 2003) are suitable for walking in them? The shoes was not used, just in the box for all those years. If I would like to wear them, do such old shoes quickly crack or break? seller wrote "As this pair is 13 years old, it is recommended for collecting only. Wear at your own risk."

What do You think?

Thank You for any advice.

Yes any jordan 12 is wearable OG or retro, DS pairs that are years old will need to be reglued. The best glue i hear is burge cement

OK, I will only see what's up with 2003 Jordan 12 playoff when delivered. First I will check if the shoe sole is OK or need to be reglued. There is a question of choosing the best glue for that. Also, I found quite a lot of "films" about OG Air Jordans sneakers restoration on youtube.

Thank You for Your answer and all the best for You.
