FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed from high-quality tumbled leather.

Are these shoes true to size?

Most users find the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG fits true to size, but those with wider feet may prefer to go up a half size.

How should I clean the University Blue overlays?

Use a specialized suede or nubuck brush to gently lift dirt, as harsh liquid cleaners can alter the texture.

Can I wear these for basketball?

While these are basketball-inspired, modern performance technology has advanced significantly; these are now primarily considered lifestyle footwear.

How do I prevent the laces from getting dirty?

You can periodically remove the laces and hand-wash them in warm water with mild detergent, then air dry completely.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the toe box

Use plastic crease protectors inside the shoe while wearing, or use a shoe tree when storing to minimize structural deformation.

Stains on the leather

Gently clean with a leather-safe cleaner. Do not submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Jordan 1s remain in top condition, follow these care steps:

  1. Protective Spray: Apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather and suede prior to first use.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For stubborn stains on the white leather, use a mild soap solution and a clean microfiber cloth.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the blue overlays.
  4. Maintain Shape: Use shoe trees or crumpled acid-free paper inside the shoes when not in use to maintain the high-top structure and reduce toe-box creasing.
