FAQs

What is the primary material of the Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG?

The primary material is smooth leather for the uppers and overlays.

What does the 'OG' in the name signify?

'OG' typically refers to an original or retro release that stays true to the original design specifications and colorways of the first release.

How should I clean the leather uppers?

Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt. For tougher stains, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Is this shoe suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by a basketball shoe, the Retro Low OG is best suited for casual wear and lifestyle purposes. It is not designed for the demands of modern athletic performance.

What is the meaning of the Atmosphere Grey colorway?

Atmosphere Grey refers to the specific shade of grey used in the shoe's color scheme, featuring light grey leather with contrasting detailing.

How do I maintain the vintage look of the outsole?

The yellowed effect is intentional. Clean gently with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could remove the intended vintage finish.

What sizes are available?

This particular guide is for UK size 12. The Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG is available in a range of adult sizes.

Troubleshooting

Leather creasing excessively

This is natural with leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use. Avoid overly tight lacing.

Discoloration of the outsole

The yellowed outsole is part of the vintage aesthetic and may naturally darken with age or exposure. Clean gently with a damp cloth. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.

Squeaking noise from the shoe

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and midsole. Try sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.

Care:
