FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While the Air Jordan 1 originated as a basketball shoe, this Retro High OG model is primarily designed for casual wear and street style. Its construction and materials prioritize aesthetics and comfort for daily use rather than modern high-performance athletic demands.

How do I determine the correct size for me?

Air Jordan 1s generally fit true to size. We recommend selecting your usual UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying a half size up for a more comfortable fit, especially if you prefer thicker socks.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

The genuine leather construction offers some resistance to light moisture. However, it's not waterproof, and prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions should be avoided as it can damage the leather. For best protection, consider applying a dedicated leather protector spray.

What is AirSole cushioning?

AirSole cushioning refers to Nike's patented technology where pressurized air is encapsulated in a durable, flexible bag within the shoe's midsole. This provides lightweight impact absorption and comfort, offering a responsive feel underfoot.

How do I prevent creasing on the toe box?

Creasing is a natural occurrence with genuine leather shoes. To minimize it, you can use plastic or foam shoe trees when storing your sneakers. Avoiding walking motions that overly bend the toe can also help. Regular conditioning keeps the leather supple and less prone to harsh creases.

Are these shoes made with real leather?

Yes, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG features genuine leather construction, providing a premium feel, enhanced durability, and a classic look.

How do I clean the green glow sections?

For the 'Green Glow' sections, which may be synthetic or treated leather, use a soft, damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Gently wipe the area and then pat dry. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners to prevent damage to the color or material.

Troubleshooting

Leather creasing or wrinkling

This is natural with genuine leather. To minimize, use shoe trees when storing and avoid excessively tight lacing. Apply a good leather conditioner regularly to keep the leather supple.

Squeaking sound when walking

Often caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing and reinserting the insole, or sprinkle a small amount of baby powder or talcum powder under the insole to reduce friction.

Scuff marks on the leather

For light scuffs, try gently rubbing with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For more persistent marks, a specialized leather cleaner or a small amount of white vinegar on a cloth can often help, followed by a leather conditioner.

Loss of traction on the outsole

Dirt and debris can accumulate in the outsole grooves. Clean the soles regularly with a stiff brush and water to restore grip. Ensure they are fully dry before wearing.

Uncomfortable fit in certain areas

Genuine leather shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially. Ensure you have the correct size. Thicker socks can sometimes help or worsen the fit, depending on the issue.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Iconic Style: Instantly recognizable and highly fashionable design, perfect for streetwear and casual outfits.
  • Premium Materials: Genuine leather offers a luxurious feel and enhanced durability compared to synthetic alternatives.
  • Comfortable Cushioning: AirSole technology provides effective, lightweight comfort for all-day wear.
  • Versatile Wear: Easily pairs with a wide range of casual attire, from jeans to joggers.
  • Durable Construction: Built with robust materials and a solid rubber outsole for long-lasting use.
  • Collector's Item: A sought-after model for sneaker collectors and enthusiasts due to its heritage.

Cons

  • Not Optimized for Athletic Performance: While durable, the retro design is not built for modern high-performance basketball or intense athletic activities.
  • Leather Care Required: Genuine leather needs specific care and cleaning to maintain its appearance and longevity.
  • Break-in Period: New leather shoes may require a short break-in period to achieve optimal comfort.
  • Bulkier Feel: Compared to lighter, more modern sneakers, the high-top leather design can feel slightly bulkier.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG requires no complex setup. Simply unbox, lace them up to your preferred tightness, and you're ready to step out in style.

Compatibility

  • Fashion: These sneakers are highly compatible with a wide range of casual and streetwear fashion. They pair excellently with jeans, chinos, cargo pants, joggers, and shorts. The high-top design also complements various sock lengths and styles.
  • Activities: Best suited for daily wear, social events, casual outings, and street photography. While they originate from basketball, their modern iteration is optimized for fashion and comfort rather than high-performance sports.

Care Instructions

To maintain the pristine condition and longevity of your Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG, especially with its genuine leather construction, follow these care tips:

  1. Regular Cleaning:
  • Gently brush off loose dirt and dust with a soft-bristled brush.
  • For surface marks, wipe down the leather with a soft, damp cloth.
  • For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner, applying it sparingly with a soft cloth and following product instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  1. Drying:
  • If wet, allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature.
  • Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can dry out and crack the leather.
  1. Storage:
  • Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • To help maintain their shape and prevent creasing, consider using shoe trees, especially cedar ones that can also absorb moisture.
  • Keep them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag to protect them from dust.
  1. Protection:
  • Consider applying a leather protector spray specifically designed for sneakers to help repel water and stains, particularly before initial wear and periodically thereafter.
  1. Sole Care:
  • Clean the rubber outsoles with a brush and mild soap and water to maintain traction and appearance.

Following these guidelines will help preserve the premium look and feel of your Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG for years to come.
