FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for professional basketball?

While based on a historic basketball design, these are categorized as retro lifestyle trainers and lack the modern cushioning technology found in current performance basketball shoes.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, though individual foot width may vary. It is recommended to choose your typical size for this brand.

How do I clean the white sections?

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild soap solution with a soft-bristled brush, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, you can remove the factory insoles to replace them with custom orthotics if required for additional arch support.

What is the primary material?

The trainers are primarily constructed from durable leather, which provides a classic look and robust feel.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather toe box

Creasing is a natural occurrence with genuine leather; using a shoe tree when not in use helps maintain the shape and minimize deep folds.

Difficulty getting the foot in

Loosen the top three eyelets of the laces entirely before attempting to put the shoe on, which provides extra clearance for the ankle.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable leather material for long-lasting wear
  • Excellent ankle support due to high-top structure
  • Timeless design suitable for multiple styles
  • Secure fit provided by the adjustable lacing system

Cons

  • High-top design takes more time to put on and take off
  • Heavier feel compared to modern lightweight athletic shoes
  • Leather may require a break-in period for maximum comfort

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Jordan 1s remain in optimal condition, focus on proper fit and maintenance:

  1. Fitting: Ensure you are wearing your correct UK size. The leather will soften slightly after the initial few wears, allowing the shoe to contour to your foot shape.
  2. Lacing: Adjust the laces from the bottom up to achieve your preferred snugness. You can vary the tightness around the ankle collar depending on whether you prioritize maximum support or more flexibility.
  3. Care: Clean the leather upper using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the material and finish. Keep them away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking.
