FAQs

What is the primary material of the Air Jordan 1 Mid Neutral Grey (GS)?

The primary material is leather, providing a durable and premium feel for the upper.

Are these trainers suitable for athletic sports?

These trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear, not for high-impact athletic performance.

How do I best maintain the white leather parts?

Regularly wipe with a damp cloth. For stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner and a soft brush, applying gently.

What does 'GS' stand for in the product name?

GS stands for 'Grade School,' indicating that these trainers are sized for children and younger individuals.

What is the significance of the slightly yellowed outsole?

The slightly yellowed rubber outsole is a design element that pays homage to the original Air Jordan 1 models from the 1980s, adding a vintage aesthetic.

Can adults wear the Grade School sizing?

How breathable are these trainers?

The trainers feature perforations across the vamp, which enhance breathability and airflow to the foot.

Troubleshooting

Discoloration of white leather

Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For persistent marks, use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft brush. Avoid excessive scrubbing.

Creasing on the leather upper

Creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize its appearance when storing, consider using shoe trees. Avoid over-tightening laces which can accentuate creases.

Slight wear on the rubber outsole

Scuffs on the rubber outsole can often be cleaned with a magic eraser or a damp cloth. For significant wear, consider professional restoration if desired, but minor wear is typical for a lifestyle shoe.

Uncertainty about Grade School sizing

Refer to the official Nike or Air Jordan size chart for accurate Grade School (GS) measurements. Measure your child's foot length carefully and compare it to the chart. It is often recommended to size up if measurements fall between sizes.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning Leather: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Suede/Textile Areas: Use a suede brush or a dry cloth for any suede or textile components. Test any cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Midsole and Outsole: Clean the rubber midsole and outsole with a damp cloth. A magic eraser can be effective for removing scuffs from the rubber, but use it gently.
  • Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately by hand or in a mesh bag in the washing machine. Allow to air dry completely before re-inserting.
  • Drying: Always air dry the trainers at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can damage the leather and adhesives.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe box or dust bag to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
