FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?

Can these be used for competitive basketball?
Yes, they are designed with basketball performance in mind, providing necessary traction and support.
How do I maintain the color vibrancy?

Are these suitable for wide feet?
The low-top silhouette is accommodating, but those with wider feet may consider going up a half size if they feel tight.
What is the best sock type to pair with these?
Mid-weight athletic socks that provide a little bit of padding around the heel and ankle area work best.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window lacing' style to relieve pressure on the top of the foot.
Visible scuffs on the Gold finish
Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a soft cloth with a tiny amount of water to gently buff out surface marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your AE 1 Low shoes maintain their performance and look, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for shorter durations for the first few days to allow the materials to contour to the foot.
- Lacing: Ensure the laces are snug but not overly tight to prevent circulation issues; use the eyelets for a customized heel lock.
- Cleaning: Wipe down the synthetic upper with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals that could damage the Gold finish.
- Air Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can warp the midsole material.
