FAQs

What materials are these sneakers made from?

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG 'Green Glow' features high-quality leather uppers, providing durability and a premium feel, along with a rubber outsole and an Air-Sole cushioning unit.

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While the Air Jordan 1 has deep roots in basketball heritage, this retro release is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. For optimal athletic performance and support during sports, modern basketball shoes are recommended.

How do I ensure I get the correct size?

Air Jordan 1s generally fit true to size. We recommend referring to your usual UK sneaker size. If you are between sizes, some users prefer to go up half a size for a more comfortable fit, especially with high-top designs.

What is the 'Air-Sole unit'?

The Air-Sole unit is a cushioning technology developed by Nike. It consists of pressurized air contained within a durable, flexible bag, providing lightweight cushioning and impact absorption for enhanced comfort during wear.

Can I machine wash these sneakers?

No, it is strongly advised not to machine wash leather sneakers. Machine washing can severely damage the leather, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe, leading to cracking, discoloration, and separation. Always follow manual cleaning instructions for leather care.

How should I store them to maintain their condition?

Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Using shoe trees can help maintain the shoe's original shape and prevent creasing. Keeping them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag also offers protection from dust and environmental factors.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound when walking

Often, a squeak can come from friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning underneath it, and then reinserting it. A small amount of baby powder sprinkled under the insole can also reduce friction. If the squeak persists, it might indicate a more complex issue with the sole's construction, potentially requiring professional shoe repair.

Creasing on the toe box

Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear. To minimize it, ensure your shoes fit properly – a snug fit can reduce excessive bending. Using shoe trees when storing can help maintain the shoe's shape. Additionally, 'crease protectors' can be inserted into the toe box while wearing to help reduce the formation of visible creases.

Stubborn dirt or scuffs on the leather

For stubborn dirt, use a dedicated leather sneaker cleaning solution with a soft brush, following the product's instructions. For scuffs, a specialized leather cleaner or a leather conditioner applied with a soft cloth can often help minimize their appearance. Always test any cleaning product on a small, hidden area first.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless Design with Modern Twist: Expertly fuses the historical "Black Toe" look with a fresh, vibrant color.
  • Eye-Catching Aesthetic: The "Green Glow" accents ensure the sneaker stands out and makes a statement.
  • High-Quality Materials: Crafted with durable leather for longevity and a premium feel.
  • Comfortable for Casual Wear: Features Air-Sole cushioning for day-long comfort.
  • Versatile Fashion Statement: Can elevate a variety of casual and streetwear outfits.

Cons

  • Specific Colorway: The bold "Green Glow" may not seamlessly integrate into all wardrobes or personal styles.
  • High-Top Design: The high-top cut, while iconic, may not be preferred by all users for ease of wear or certain activities.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Using your Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG 'Green Glow' is straightforward. Simply lace the shoes to your preferred tightness for a secure and comfortable fit. It's recommended to wear appropriate socks to enhance comfort and protect the shoe's interior from moisture and wear.

Compatibility

This specific model is an adult UK size 4, designed for male wearers, though the iconic style is embraced by all. The Air Jordan 1 series is generally true to size for adults; refer to a standard UK shoe size guide if unsure. Ensure the chosen size provides a comfortable, snug fit without being overly tight or loose, to maximize comfort and minimize creasing.

Care

Maintaining the premium leather of your Air Jordan 1s will preserve their appearance and extend their lifespan:

  • General Cleaning: Regularly wipe down the leather surfaces with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove dust and light dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution designed for leather. Apply the solution to a soft brush or cloth, gently scrub, and then wipe clean with a separate damp cloth.
  • Stain Removal: Address stains promptly. Use a mild leather cleaner or a dab of white vinegar on a cloth for tougher marks, always testing on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Drying: Air dry your sneakers away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage and crack the leather. Do not use a machine dryer.
  • Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape, prevent creasing, and absorb moisture. Keeping them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag can protect them from dust and environmental factors.
  • Avoid: Do not machine wash or submerge your leather sneakers in water, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
