FAQs

What materials are used in the Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG?

The upper is constructed primarily from genuine leather and textile materials. It features a foam midsole with an encapsulated Air unit for cushioning and a durable rubber outsole for traction.

Are these sneakers suitable for playing basketball?

While the Air Jordan 1 has basketball heritage, the Retro Low OG model is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. It offers comfort and style but is not engineered for the demanding performance requirements of modern basketball.

How do I determine the correct size?

Air Jordan 1s generally run true to size. It's recommended to order your standard UK shoe size. If you are unsure, referring to a brand-specific size chart is always a good idea, or trying them on if possible.

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

'OG' stands for 'Original' or 'Original Gangster,' signifying that the design details and shape of the shoe are true to the original release of the Air Jordan 1, offering a classic, remastered aesthetic.

Can I wear these sneakers in the rain?

The genuine leather can be susceptible to water damage. It is advisable to avoid heavy rain. For light moisture, using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather can provide a layer of protection, but always clean and dry them properly if they get wet.

How often should I clean and condition the leather?

Regular light cleaning after each wear is recommended. For deep cleaning and conditioning, depending on frequency of wear and exposure, aim for every 1-3 months. More frequent care may be needed for heavy use.

Troubleshooting

Leather looks dull or dry.

Apply a high-quality leather conditioner. Ensure the shoes are clean before conditioning. Regular conditioning helps restore luster and suppleness.

Scuffs or minor marks on the leather.

For light scuffs, try gently rubbing with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper scuffs, a specialized leather cleaner or a leather repair kit may be necessary. Always test products on an inconspicuous area first.

Squeaking noise when walking.

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, then reinserting the insole. If the squeak persists, check if the outsole is separating, though this is rare for new shoes.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Genuine leather often requires a 'break-in' period. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to conform to your feet. Thicker socks can also help during this period.

Care Instructions

Proper care is essential to maintain the genuine leather and overall condition of your Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG sneakers.

  1. Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth after each wear to remove dust and light dirt.
  2. Deep Cleaning (Leather): For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner. Apply a small amount to a soft brush or cloth and gently scrub the affected areas. Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  3. Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every few months to keep the leather soft, supple, and prevent cracking. This also helps maintain its natural sheen.
  4. Protection: Use a water and stain repellent spray designed for leather to protect against spills and light rain. Reapply periodically, especially after cleaning.
  5. Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees or stuff them with acid-free paper to help maintain their shape.
  6. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the leather and colors.
  7. Sole Care: Clean the rubber outsole with a brush and mild soap to remove dirt and maintain traction.
