FAQs

What material are the Air Jordan 1 Mid 'Tropical Twist' trainers made of?

The trainers feature an all-leather upper.

What is the main cushioning technology used?

They utilize encapsulated Nike Air cushioning in the heel for comfort and support.

Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?

These trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear, offering comfort for daily activities rather than specialized athletic performance.

How do I ensure I get the correct size?

It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the brand's sizing chart. Trying them on in-store, if possible, is the best way to ensure a proper fit, as trainer sizing can vary.

What does the 'Tropical Twist' refer to?

The 'Tropical Twist' refers to the vibrant teal accent colour used on the Swoosh, heel overlay, and collar flap, contrasting with the white and black base.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these leather trainers in wet conditions as moisture can damage the leather and affect the shoe's longevity and appearance.

What is the origin of the Air Jordan 1 Mid silhouette?

The Air Jordan 1 Mid is a variation of the original Air Jordan 1, which was first released in 1985. The mid-top version offers a slightly different profile and ankle coverage.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes happen with new leather shoes. Try loosening the laces slightly, or ensure the insole is properly seated. A light dusting of baby powder under the insole might also help.

Leather creasing excessively

Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize deep creases, avoid flexing the shoe too sharply when walking. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain shape.

Difficulty lacing up tightly

Ensure the tongue is centred and flat. If the eyelets feel tight, gently work the laces through. Consider re-lacing in a different pattern if needed.

  • Stylish and iconic design appealing to sneaker enthusiasts.
  • Comfortable cushioning suitable for extended wear.
  • Durable leather construction for longevity.
  • Versatile colourway that pairs well with various outfits.
  • Classic mid-top silhouette provides good support.

Cons

  • Leather may require specific care to maintain its appearance.
  • Mid-top style might not be preferred by everyone.
  • Limited availability may affect purchasing options.
  • Traction might be less effective on wet or slippery surfaces compared to specialized athletic shoes.
  • Sizing can vary, recommending an in-person try-on or careful measurement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Compatibility is primarily with casual attire.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner, testing it on an inconspicuous area first.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: A damp cloth or a soft brush can be used to clean the rubber parts. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  3. Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning. They can be hand-washed with mild soap and water.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to maintain their shape and prevent dust accumulation.
  5. Weather: Avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain or snow, as moisture can damage the leather and affect the shoe's structure.
