FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for basketball?
No, these are lifestyle trainers. They lack the modern support and cushioning systems found in current performance basketball shoes.
Does the sizing run true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to size. If you prefer a looser fit or have wider feet, you may consider sizing up by half a size.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives used in the sole, causing permanent structural damage.
What is the significance of the Banned colorway?
The colorway refers to the legendary story of the original red and black sneaker that defied NBA uniform regulations, symbolizing athlete individuality.
Is the material real leather?
Yes, the product is constructed using premium leather as the primary material.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather toe box
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear; use sneaker shields or shoe trees when not in use to maintain the shape.
Difficulty putting on the shoe
Loosen the laces fully from the bottom eyelets to provide more space for the foot to slide in before tightening.
Dirt buildup on the white midsole
Gently scrub the midsole with a specialized sneaker cleaning solution and a soft brush, then wipe dry with a clean towel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG Banned remains in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Since these are made of leather, expect the material to soften with consistent wear over the first few days.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush or a dry microfiber cloth to remove surface dust. For deeper stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied sparingly to a cloth, not directly to the shoe.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading of the varsity red panels.
- Compatibility: These fit true to standard size for adults. If you have a wider foot, you may find the initial fit snug due to the structured leather build.
