FAQs

What makes the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Taxi special?

This release is notable for its 'Taxi' yellow, black, and white colorway, inspired by rare 'Yellow Toe' samples that were highly sought after by collectors. It combines classic AJ 1 design elements with a unique, historically relevant color scheme.

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While the Air Jordan 1 has basketball roots, the Retro High OG models are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. They may not offer the modern performance technology and support required for competitive basketball.

How do I clean the premium leather upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For more persistent stains, a specialized leather cleaner can be applied sparingly with a soft cloth, followed by a gentle wipe-down. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

What is the typical sizing for Air Jordan 1s?

Air Jordan 1s generally fit true to size for most people. However, personal preference for fit can vary. It's recommended to consult a sizing chart and consider trying them on if possible.

What material is the tongue made of?

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Taxi features a traditional nylon tongue, which is a characteristic detail of original Air Jordan 1 releases.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to rain or wet conditions can damage the materials and affect the color. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

What does 'OG' stand for in Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG?

'OG' stands for 'Original Game' or 'Original Release.' In this context, it signifies that the shoe is a retro release that closely resembles the original design and specifications of the 1985 Air Jordan 1.

Troubleshooting

Fit feels too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing pattern. For a tighter fit, use a lacing technique that increases pressure. For a looser fit, unlace them further up the shoe. Ensure you have selected the correct size; refer to sizing charts if needed.

Leather creasing excessively

Creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize harsh creasing, consider using shoe trees when not in use. Avoid bending the shoe excessively during wear.

Color transfer from yellow accents

Ensure the shoes are dry before wear. If the color seems to be bleeding, avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials, especially when wet. Professional leather care products might help seal the color, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For stubborn marks on the leather, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  • Suede/Nubuck (if applicable): Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore texture. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner.
  • Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning. Hand wash with mild soap and water, then air dry.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with paper can help maintain shape and absorb moisture.
