FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
Yes, they provide good support and traction for casual sports and recess activities, though they are categorized as lifestyle trainers.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Use a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive soap. Do not submerge the shoes in water.
Does the shoe provide good arch support?
The cushioned midsole provides general comfort, but users needing specific orthotic support may need to add their own inserts.
Can these be worn in wet weather?
While the leather is durable, it is not waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain or deep puddles to preserve the material.
How do I ensure the right size for my child?
Measure the child's foot in the afternoon when it is at its largest and compare it to standard UK children's sizing charts.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the foot into the shoe
Loosen the laces all the way down to the bottom eyelets to widen the opening before sliding the foot in.
Leather surface shows scuff marks
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft eraser to gently buff out surface-level scuffs.
Outsole losing traction
Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris that can accumulate and cause slipping.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your Jordan 1 Mids, begin by ensuring a proper fit; there should be a small amount of space for natural toe movement. Since these shoes are made of leather, avoid machine washing, which can damage the material and structure.
Care Instructions:
- Remove loose dirt after each use with a soft brush.
- Use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away stubborn stains on the leather.
- Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent cracking.
- If the laces become soiled, remove them and soak in warm soapy water separately.
