Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG - Black - UK 7

This Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG design is inspired by the jersey Michael Jordan wore when he 'shattered the backboard' during a slam dunk in an exhibition game in Italy.

The Air-Sole unit in the heel provides internal cushioning and is embedded within the sole construction. It is not typically visible from the outside of the shoe.

While originating as a basketball shoe, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG is now primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, offering comfort and style for everyday use. It is not intended for use as Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) or for high-performance basketball play.

For routine cleaning, wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or specific stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner, following the product's instructions. Always test on a small, hidden area first and allow to air dry.

'OG' stands for 'Original,' signifying that this particular model closely adheres to the design, color blocking, and branding of the very first Air Jordan 1 released in 1985.

The 'Wings logo' is the iconic emblem created for the initial Air Jordan line. It typically depicts a basketball with wings on either side and is prominently featured on the ankle collar of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG, representing flight and Michael Jordan's aerial prowess.

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG generally has a regular fit. However, individual foot shapes vary. For the best fit, it's often recommended to try them on or consult a detailed size guide if purchasing online.

Creasing is a natural occurrence with leather. To minimize it, use shoe trees when storing your sneakers. Regularly apply a quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent deep, permanent creases. Avoid excessive bending of the toe box.

This can often be caused by moisture or friction between the insole and the main sole unit. Try removing the insoles, cleaning both the underside of the insole and the inside of the shoe, and allowing them to dry thoroughly before reinserting. A small amount of talcum powder sprinkled under the insole can also help reduce friction.

For light dirt, gently wipe the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner designed for sneakers. Always follow the cleaner's instructions and test on an inconspicuous area first. For scuffs, a leather conditioner or specific leather repair cream might help.

Ensure you have the correct size. If the shoe is slightly tight, wearing it for short periods with thin socks during the break-in phase can help the leather conform to your foot. If discomfort persists, consider checking your foot measurements against a detailed Jordan size guide.

Ensure you are using a secure lacing knot. A double knot or a 'surgeon's knot' (where the first loop is passed through twice before tightening) can significantly improve lace security.
