FAQs

Is this shoe comfortable for all-day walking?

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High 85 OG is built based on 1980s technology, which is firmer than today's performance sneakers. It is best suited for casual wear rather than intense athletic activity.

Does it fit true to size?

Yes, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High 85 OG generally fits true to your standard UK shoe size.

How do I protect the suede accents?

You can use a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for suede. Always test a small, inconspicuous area first.

What is unique about the 85 series?

The 85 series is designed to be a direct 'time capsule' recreation of the original 1985 launch, featuring specific anatomical cuts and branding that differ from standard retro releases.

Can these be worn in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these in wet or muddy conditions, as water can damage the leather and ruin the suede texture.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather toe box

Creasing is a natural characteristic of high-quality leather. Using shoe trees after wear can help the material retain its shape.

Dirt on the suede swoosh

Use a specialized dry suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush. Never use water on the suede, as it can cause permanent water spots.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High level of historical detail and authenticity
  • Premium materials provide a luxurious feel
  • Iconic, versatile colourway
  • Excellent craftsmanship consistent with the 85 series

Cons

  • Lacks modern comfort-focused midsole technology
  • Limited stock availability due to its collector-focused nature
  • Requires careful maintenance to protect the suede accents

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Jordan 1 Retro High 85 OG maintains its condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Storage: Keep the sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white leather from yellowing and the suede from fading.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the suede areas. For the leather panels, wipe clean with a damp, soft cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals.
  3. Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size. If you prefer a more locked-in feel for daily walking, ensure you select your standard UK sizing.
