FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While the Air Jordan 1 originated as a basketball shoe, this specific 'Chicago Lost And Found' retro model is primarily intended for casual wear and fashion. They do not feature the modern performance technology required for contemporary basketball play.

What does 'Lost And Found' refer to in the name?

The 'Lost And Found' theme suggests a pair of vintage sneakers discovered after being misplaced for a long time, hence the intentionally aged and distressed aesthetic, including cracked leather and a pre-yellowed sole.

How should I store these sneakers to preserve their condition?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees is recommended to help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these in wet conditions. The premium leather can be damaged by excessive moisture, and color transfer may occur. If they do get wet, dry them naturally away from heat sources.

What is the typical fit of the Air Jordan 1 High?

The Air Jordan 1 High generally runs true to size for most individuals. They are designed with a regular fit, but personal preference for tightness or looseness can vary.

How do I care for the cracked leather accents?

The cracked leather is a design element intended to look aged. Avoid excessive flexing in these areas. Gentle wiping with a damp cloth is sufficient. Over-conditioning might alter the intended distressed look.

What is the main difference between this model and other Air Jordan 1s?

The 'Chicago Lost And Found' variant distinguishes itself with its intentionally aged aesthetic, featuring cracked leather and a pre-yellowed midsole, designed to evoke a vintage, 'found' pair. Other Air Jordan 1 models may feature cleaner finishes or different color blocking.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears excessively dry or cracked.

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner with a soft cloth, focusing on the dry areas. Allow it to absorb and buff gently. Avoid over-application.

Surface dirt is difficult to remove.

Use a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a specialized sneaker cleaning solution can be used sparingly, followed by a wipe with a clean damp cloth. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

The shoes feel tight.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If still tight after a few wears, consider using thicker socks around the house to gently stretch the leather, or use a shoe stretcher tool designed for leather footwear.

Color transfer from the red leather.

This is a characteristic of the design. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials, especially when the shoes are new or wet, to minimize color transfer.

Care:

  1. Wipe Clean: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away surface dirt and dust.
  2. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the leather and finish.
  3. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, which can cause the leather to crack or warp.
  4. Leather Conditioning: For maintaining the leather's suppleness and preventing excessive cracking, consider using a leather conditioner specifically designed for sneakers. Apply sparingly according to product instructions.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
