FAQs
What is the primary material of the Air Jordan 1 Mid 'White Shadow'?
The primary material is leather, used for the upper construction, providing durability and a premium feel.
What does 'White Shadow' refer to in the name?
It refers to the specific colorway, which combines black, white, and cool grey tones, inspired by an original Air Jordan 1 design, with a slightly lighter grey Swoosh.
Is this shoe suitable for playing basketball?
While inspired by a basketball shoe, the Mid 'White Shadow' is designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. It does not feature the advanced technology or support required for competitive basketball play.
How should I clean the leather parts of the shoe?
Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a dedicated leather cleaner and avoid soaking the shoe.
What is the difference between the Mid and other Air Jordan 1 versions (Low/High)?
The primary difference is the height of the ankle collar. The Mid-top offers more ankle coverage than the Low and less than the High.
When was the 'White Shadow' colorway released?
The Air Jordan 1 Mid 'White Shadow' was released in October 2020.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
Leather shoes are not ideal for prolonged exposure to wet conditions. While they can handle light moisture, heavy rain may damage the leather and affect the shoe's integrity. Consider using a water-repellent spray for added protection.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly and that the shoe is properly broken in. If the squeak persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.
Leather creasing
Creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize severe creasing, avoid bending the shoe excessively when walking. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shoe's shape.
Discoloration
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh chemicals. Clean gently with appropriate leather care products. If discoloration occurs, specific restoration products may be needed, but prevention is key.
