FAQs

What does 'OG' mean in the product name?

'OG' stands for 'Original' or 'Original Release'. In the context of Air Jordans, it refers to models that are designed to be as close as possible to the initial release versions from the 1980s, often featuring original branding and color-blocking.

Are these sneakers suitable for playing basketball?

While the Air Jordan 1 was originally a basketball shoe, this Retro Low OG model is primarily designed for casual wear and fashion. Modern basketball shoes offer superior performance features, cushioning, and support for playing the sport.

How do I know what size to order?

Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG sneakers typically fit true to size. It's generally recommended to order your usual shoe size. If you're unsure, measure your foot length and consult a standard sizing chart for Air Jordan sneakers. This specific variant is UK size 8.

What is the primary material used in these sneakers?

The primary material for the upper of these sneakers is genuine leather, providing both a premium look and durable construction. The sole is made of rubber.

Can I wear these sneakers in the rain?

While the leather offers some resistance to light moisture, these sneakers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided. Applying a water and stain repellent spray designed for leather can offer additional protection.

How do I prevent the white leather from yellowing over time?

To prevent yellowing, store your sneakers in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Cleaning them regularly and avoiding harsh chemical cleaners can also help maintain the white's original crispness. Some yellowing can be a natural process of aging in materials.

Troubleshooting

Scuffs or dirt marks on the leather upper

Gently wipe the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. For more persistent marks, use a sneaker cleaner specifically formulated for leather and a soft brush, then wipe clean and air dry.

Sneakers feel too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing system. Ensure laces are snug but not overly tight. If discomfort persists, consider wearing thinner or thicker socks depending on the issue. These sneakers are generally true to size, but individual foot shapes vary.

Creasing on the toe box after wear

Creasing is a natural occurrence with leather sneakers. To minimize, use shoe trees when storing. Avoid walking on your toes or performing activities that excessively bend the toe area. Regular conditioning of the leather can also help maintain its suppleness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting Started (Setup)

Upon receiving your Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG 'Game Royal' sneakers, lace them up securely to achieve a comfortable and supportive fit. The traditional lace-up closure allows for personalized adjustments. Take a moment to appreciate the craftsmanship and design details before stepping out.

Compatibility (Styling)

These sneakers are highly compatible with a wide range of casual and streetwear attire. They pair excellently with:

  • Chinos & Cargo Pants: For a slightly more refined but still casual look.
  • Shorts: Ideal for warmer weather, showcasing the full sneaker.
  • Athleisure Wear: Complements tracksuits and hoodies for a relaxed, sporty aesthetic.

Care & Maintenance

To ensure your Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG 'Game Royal' sneakers maintain their pristine appearance and longevity:

  1. Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the leather uppers with a soft, damp cloth after each wear to remove surface dirt and dust.
  2. Deep Cleaning: For stubborn marks, use a sneaker-specific cleaning solution and a soft brush. Apply gently in circular motions, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight or heat.
  3. Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray designed for leather to protect against spills and light moisture.
  4. Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.
  5. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the leather and colors.
  6. Sole Care: Clean the rubber sole with a brush to remove dirt and maintain traction.
