Product Information

Full details

The Air Jordan 1 Mid 'Lakers Purple' is designed for young, style-conscious individuals, particularly kids and sneaker enthusiasts who admire the Los Angeles Lakers. Its key benefit is offering iconic team colors and classic Air Jordan 1 design for everyday wear. A potential caveat is that, as a mid-top, it may offer less ankle support than a high-top for intense athletic activity. This sneaker features a mid-top profile, a distinctive purple and gold color scheme inspired by the Lakers, and durable leather construction.

FAQs

What age group is this sneaker for?

This specific model, the Air Jordan 1 Mid Lakers Purple, is sized for kids (Grade School - GS).

How do I clean the purple leather on these sneakers?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher stains, a mild leather cleaner applied sparingly with a soft cloth is recommended. Always air dry.

Are these suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by basketball heritage, the Air Jordan 1 Mid is primarily designed as a lifestyle sneaker. It offers decent support for casual wear but may not provide the specialized ankle support and performance features needed for competitive basketball.

What does the 'GS' in the product title mean?

GS stands for 'Grade School', indicating that the sizing is specifically for children, not adults or toddlers.

What are the main colors of this sneaker?

The primary colors are Dark Concord Purple and Taxi Yellow, accented with white and black details, reflecting the Los Angeles Lakers' team colors.

How does the sizing run for these sneakers?

The sizing runs true to standard UK children's shoe sizes. It is recommended to refer to the specific size chart or try them on if possible to ensure a proper fit.

What materials are used in the upper construction?

The upper is constructed from a mix of smooth leather and tumbled leather, providing both durability and a premium aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Scuff marks on leather

Gently clean with a damp cloth or a specialized leather cleaner. For minor scuffs, a magic eraser can be carefully used.

Laces becoming dirty

Remove laces and hand wash with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.

Uneven color or texture

This can be a natural characteristic of the materials used. Minor variations are normal and add to the unique look of the shoe.

Discomfort during wear

Ensure the correct size has been selected. Break in the shoes with short periods of wear initially. Check that socks are appropriate for athletic footwear.
