FAQs

Can I cut the collar off and reattach it later?

No, once the collar is cut along the perforated line, it cannot be reattached. The conversion to a low-top is permanent.

What material is the shoe made of?

The shoe features a white leather construction with multicolor leather and Durabuck overlays.

How do I know if I should cut the collar?

Consider your personal style preference and how you intend to wear the shoes. If you prefer a high-top look for support or style, keep it intact. If you desire a low-top profile, carefully proceed with the conversion.

What is the SKU for this specific model?

The SKU for this model is DC6515-100.

Are there other colorways available?

While this specific release is 'White/Multi-Color-Total Orange,' the Air Jordan 1 series is known for numerous colorways across different releases.

How should I care for the multicolor overlays?

Treat the multicolor overlays like dyed leather and Durabuck. Clean gently with a damp cloth and avoid harsh chemicals. Be mindful of potential color transfer in wet conditions.

Is this shoe suitable for athletic performance?

While inspired by basketball heritage, this shoe is primarily designed for casual lifestyle wear. It is not intended for rigorous athletic performance.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty cutting the collar cleanly

Use a very sharp blade, a cutting mat, and steady pressure. Consider watching online tutorials for technique. It's best to cut on the outer side of the perforation.

Color transfer from overlays

In damp conditions, there's a slight risk of color transfer. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials, especially when wet. Waterproofing sprays designed for leather and suede may help, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Uneven wear on leather

Regular cleaning and conditioning with appropriate leather products can help maintain the material's appearance. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals or excessive moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  • Conversion (Optional): If you choose to convert the shoe to a low-top, ensure you have a sharp craft knife or precision cutting tool. Carefully follow the perforated line around the collar. Proceed slowly and deliberately to avoid mistakes. It is recommended to practice on a less visible area or to research user guides before cutting.

  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to protect from dust and potential damage.
