FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are lifestyle trainers intended for casual wear and are not designed for performance running or intense sports.
How should I clean the exposed foam tongue?
The exposed foam is delicate; only use light, dry brushing to remove surface debris. Avoid water or liquid cleaners.
Can I replace the laces with different colors?
Yes, the model comes with mix-and-match lacing options, allowing you to customize the look to match the red or black accents.
Does the size UK 16 fit true to size?
Jordan 1 Retro High OG silhouettes generally fit true to standard athletic sizing, though individual preferences for roominess may vary.
What is the significance of the yellow tag?
The yellow tag is a signature branding element from the Union LA collaboration, marking the specific design aesthetic of the release.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather toe box
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear; using cedar shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shape.
Stitching appearing loose
The design features intentional exposed stitching as part of its deconstructed aesthetic; unless the structural integrity is compromised, this is a normal design trait.
Dirt on the aged midsole
Use a damp, non-abrasive cloth to gently wipe the midsole; avoid heavy scrubbing that might remove the intentional aged-look finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your Jordan 1 Retro High OG SPs, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can prematurely age the leather and colored components. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust after each wear. Given the exposed foam on the tongue and the specific stitch-work, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners. If you need to treat the leather, use a high-quality leather conditioner applied sparingly with a microfiber cloth. Laces can be swapped to match the various color accents, but ensure they are threaded carefully to avoid snagging the delicate exposed stitching.
