FAQs
What is the main difference between this and a standard Air Jordan 1?
The primary difference is the significantly thicker platform sole, which adds height and a modern aesthetic. It also features a zippered medial side for alternative closure.
Are these suitable for playing basketball?
While inspired by a basketball shoe, the platform sole is designed for casual wear and style rather than high-performance athletic activities. They are best suited for walking and everyday use.
How do I determine my correct size?
These are women's sizing. Refer to the brand's official size chart for accurate measurements, comparing your foot length to the corresponding UK, EU, or US size.
Can I wear these in wet conditions?
The leather upper can be damaged by excessive moisture. While they offer some protection, it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet environments. Consider using a water-repellent spray specifically for leather footwear.
What is the purpose of the slightly yellowed midsole?
The yellowed tint is a deliberate design choice to give the sneaker a retro, vintage, or 'worn-in' appearance, adding to its unique aesthetic.
How do I clean the white leather parts?
Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild soap or leather cleaner. Gently wipe the surface. For tougher stains, a specialized sneaker cleaner can be effective. Always allow them to air dry naturally.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or stuck
Ensure there is no debris caught in the zipper track. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or wax to the teeth of the zipper and gently work it back and forth.
Leather appears dry or creased
Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for sneakers to moisturize the material and help minimize the appearance of creases. Condition periodically to maintain suppleness.
Discoloration on midsole
The midsole has a vintage-inspired tint. For general cleaning, use a damp cloth. If cleaning is needed for marks, a specialized sneaker cleaner or a magic eraser can be used cautiously, testing on a small area first.
Laces fraying
Replace laces with new ones. You can purchase replacement laces in similar colors or experiment with different styles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These sneakers require no specific setup. They are ready to wear out of the box.
Compatibility:
Designed primarily for women's adult foot sizes.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the leather.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: A damp cloth or a soft brush can be used to clean the rubber components. For stubborn marks on the midsole, a magic eraser may be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately by hand or in a laundry bag.
- Zipper Maintenance: Ensure the zipper area is free of debris to prevent snagging. A light application of wax or a zipper lubricant can ensure smooth operation if needed.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
