FAQs

What does 'Self Expression' mean in the context of these trainers?

It refers to the design's ability to be customized. The outer layers are designed to wear away or be altered to reveal a different color or texture underneath, allowing the wearer to personalize their look.

Are these trainers meant for sports?

These are fashion trainers based on the iconic Air Jordan 1 silhouette. While they offer comfort for everyday wear, they are not designed for high-performance athletic activities.

How do I intentionally customize the shoes?

Customization can be achieved through various methods like light sanding, scratching, or applying specific paints/markers designed for footwear. Always test on a small area first and proceed with caution.

What is the material of the upper?

The product information specifies Denim as a material for some variants, alongside the characteristic layered finish typical of Air Jordan 1 models.

How should I clean the fade effect?

Clean gently with a damp cloth. Harsh chemicals or vigorous scrubbing can damage the layered finish and the intended fade effect.

What sizes are available?

The available sizes vary, and specific UK adult foot sizes are listed in the product's variant information. Please check the detailed product listing for current availability.

Does the 'fade effect' wear off completely?

The design allows for wear to reveal underlying colors. The extent to which it fades depends on usage and care. It's designed to evolve with wear.

Troubleshooting

Uneven color fade or accidental wear

This is an intended feature for customization. If you wish to preserve the original look, handle with care and avoid excessive friction. For minor, unwanted wear, specialized shoe restoration services might offer solutions.

Difficulty finding the right size

Refer to the size chart and compare with your known UK shoe size. Available sizes are listed in the product details.

Stains on the upper material

Use a slightly damp cloth and mild soap solution. Test any cleaning solution on a small, hidden area first. Do not soak the shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As footwear, the Jordan 1 Retro High OG 'Self-Expression' requires no technical setup. Simply ensure you have the correct size for a comfortable fit.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general adult male footwear sizing. They are compatible with casual apparel and streetwear.

Care: To maintain the unique 'Self Expression' design:

  • If customization is desired, consider using appropriate shoe-care products designed for custom sneakers, and test on an inconspicuous area first.
