FAQs

What is the main difference between the '85 OG and other Air Jordan 1 models?

The '85 OG is a direct reissue of the original 1985 Air Jordan 1, featuring a shape and construction that is truer to the very first release, often with a higher cut and different paneling compared to subsequent retro versions.

Are these suitable for playing basketball?

While they are based on a basketball shoe, the '85 OG is primarily intended for casual wear and collecting. Modern basketball shoes offer enhanced performance and support for the sport.

How should I clean the black and white leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For more stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be applied with a soft cloth, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth and air drying.

What does 'OG' stand for in the product name?

'OG' stands for 'Original Gangster', which in the sneaker community refers to the original colorway or version of a shoe as it was first released.

How durable is the leather on these trainers?

The trainers are made with premium leather, designed for durability. However, like all leather products, their longevity depends on care and usage. Regular cleaning and proper storage will help maintain their condition.

Can I wear these with socks?

Yes, wearing socks is recommended for comfort, hygiene, and to prevent rubbing. The fit may vary slightly depending on the thickness of the socks.

What is the release date of this specific iteration?

This particular iteration, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High '85 OG 'Black White', was originally released on 16/02/2023.

Troubleshooting

Sizing concerns

Refer to the official Air Jordan size chart and compare with your usual sneaker size. Consider that the '85 OG might have a slightly different fit than modern releases. Contact customer support for personalized advice if unsure.

Creasing on leather

Creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize it, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid bending the shoe excessively during wear. Consider using crease protectors if desired.

Laces becoming dirty

Laces can often be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water, then air-dried. Alternatively, they can be replaced with new laces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

  • Sizing: Designed for adult males, but available in a range of sizes. Note that Grade School (GS) and Women (W) models may have a tighter fit. It is recommended to consult specific size charts or contact customer support if unsure about sizing, especially when comparing to other models.
  • Lacing: The shoes come pre-laced, but the lacing can be adjusted for a personalized fit.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
  • Suede/Nubuck (if applicable to other colorways): Use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and maintain texture.
  • Sole Cleaning: A damp cloth or a soft brush can be used to clean the rubber sole.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in the original box or a shoe tree, to maintain shape and prevent creasing.
  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners or bleach, as these can damage the leather and materials.
