Product Information

Full details

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG ‘Brotherhood’ is designed for adult male sneaker enthusiasts seeking a statement piece with a rich historical inspiration. Its key benefit lies in its vibrant, distinct colorway and premium leather construction that pays homage to Omega Psi Phi fraternity. A potential caveat for some users might be its high-top design, which offers ankle support but may feel restrictive for those preferring lower profiles. This iconic high-top trainer features a striking combination of University Gold, purple, and white leather, drawing from the Omega Psi Phi crest and classic Jordan 1 aesthetics, updated with Nubuck overlays for a luxurious feel. Released in February 2022, it's a collector's item that merges heritage with modern style.

FAQs

What is the inspiration behind the 'Brotherhood' colorway?

The colorway is inspired by Omega Psi Phi, a historically Black fraternity founded in 1911, and the fraternity Michael Jordan joined at the University of North Carolina.

What materials are used in the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG ‘Brotherhood’?

The sneaker features a combination of premium leather for the quarter panels, toe box, and overlays, along with Nubuck for the secondary overlays, offering a blend of smooth and textured finishes.

How do I clean the Nubuck parts of the shoe?

For Nubuck, use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dry dirt and restore the nap. Avoid using water or liquid cleaners directly on the Nubuck.

Is this sneaker suitable for athletic performance?

While the Air Jordan 1 offers good support and traction for casual wear and walking, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle and fashion sneaker, not for rigorous athletic performance.

What year was the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG ‘Brotherhood’ released?

This specific colorway was released in February 2022.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these leather and Nubuck sneakers in wet conditions, as moisture can damage the materials and lead to discoloration or staining.

What sizes are available?

These trainers are available in various adult men's sizes. Please check the product listing for current size availability.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather upper

Minor creasing is natural with leather. To minimize significant creasing, consider using shoe trees when not in use and avoid excessive bending of the foot.

Color transfer from purple overlays

Allow the shoes to air out completely before wear. If color transfer occurs, clean affected areas with a damp cloth and consider using a suede protector on the Nubuck sections.

Discomfort or tightness

Ensure the laces are adjusted properly. If the issue persists, break in the shoes by wearing them for short periods initially. Consider if the size is correct; refer to sizing guides.

Dirt and scuff marks

Wipe down regularly with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks on the rubber sole, use a magic eraser or a soft brush with mild soap. Address stains promptly.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains on leather, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
