FAQs

What materials are the Air Jordan 1 Mid 'University Gold' made from?

These sneakers feature a full leather build for the upper, with a rubber sole and synthetic materials for the tongue and laces.

Are these shoes suitable for basketball?

While inspired by basketball heritage, the Air Jordan 1 Mid is primarily designed as a lifestyle sneaker. They offer good comfort and support for casual wear and light activities, but are not recommended for serious or high-impact basketball play.

How do I clean the yellow 'University Gold' parts?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For more persistent dirt, a mild soap and water solution applied with a cloth should be sufficient. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the color or material.

What does 'women's exclusive' mean for sizing?

It means the shoe was originally released and is primarily available in women's sizing. Men or individuals outside of women's sizing may need to convert their size or seek out specific extended sizing if available.

How does the Air technology enhance comfort?

The integrated Air unit in the sole provides responsive cushioning, absorbing impact and providing a smooth, comfortable feel with each step, making them suitable for all-day wear.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The leather upper offers some protection, but the shoes are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage to the materials and ensure comfort.

Troubleshooting

Scuffs or dirt on leather

Gently clean with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied to a cloth, and test on a small area first.

Yellowing of white midsole/accents

This can occur over time with exposure to UV light and oxidation. Cleaning with a mild soap and water solution may help, but significant yellowing might be permanent.

Creasing of leather upper

Creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize, ensure proper fit, avoid over-tightening laces, and use shoe trees when not in use.

Squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur from the sole or insole. Try inserting a powder (like talcum powder) under the insole or between the tongue and upper to absorb moisture causing friction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Stylish and eye-catching design.
  • Comfortable for extended wear due to cushioning and Air technology.
  • Durable leather construction.
  • Versatile for both casual fashion and light athletic activities.
  • Maintains the classic appeal of the Jordan 1 series.

Cons

  • Availability is limited to women's sizing.
  • The bright color may not suit all personal styles.
  • Leather requires specific care to maintain appearance.
  • May be considered a fashion item rather than a high-performance basketball shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As footwear, the Air Jordan 1 Mid 'University Gold' requires no setup. Simply lace them up and wear.

Compatibility: These sneakers are designed for adult females and are compatible with standard casual and athletic wear. They are suitable for a wide range of activities, from walking to light sports.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of the leather upper:

  1. Wipe Clean: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away surface dirt.
  2. Leather Cleaner: For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner sparingly on a cloth, and test on an inconspicuous area first.
  3. Avoid Water Saturation: Do not immerse the shoes in water. If they become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
  4. Suede/Nubuck (if applicable): If any suede or nubuck accents are present, use a suede brush to restore texture and remove dirt.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to protect from dust and prevent creasing.
