FAQs

Are these shoes true to size for children?

Jordan Air 1 Mids generally fit true to size. However, foot measurements can vary greatly among children. We recommend measuring your child's foot and consulting a brand-specific size chart if available, or trying them on to ensure the best fit.

Can these sneakers be worn for basketball or other sports?

While the Air Jordan 1 Mid has roots in basketball, this children's version is primarily designed for casual wear and general daily activities. The support and cushioning are suitable for light play, but for high-intensity sports, specialized athletic shoes are usually recommended.

How do I remove odors from the shoes?

To remove odors, sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes and let it sit overnight. You can also use shoe deodorizers or cedar shoe inserts. Ensure the shoes air out regularly and are completely dry after use to prevent odor-causing bacteria growth.

Is the leather waterproof?

The genuine and synthetic leather used in these sneakers is not fully waterproof. They offer some resistance to light moisture, but prolonged exposure to water will cause them to get wet. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or puddles to maintain their condition.

How often should I clean these sneakers?

The frequency of cleaning depends on how often and where your child wears them. For daily wear, a quick wipe-down with a damp cloth every few days is beneficial. A more thorough cleaning can be done every 1-2 weeks, or as needed when they appear dirty.

Can I put these shoes in a washing machine?

No, it is strongly advised not to put leather sneakers in a washing machine. The harsh detergents, agitation, and excessive water can damage the leather, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Always opt for hand-cleaning methods.

Troubleshooting

My child's shoes are getting scuffed easily.

Leather can scuff with active use. For minor scuffs, use a clean, damp cloth and a small amount of mild leather cleaner. Gently rub the scuffed area. For deeper scuffs, a leather conditioner or specific leather repair cream may be needed. Regular cleaning helps prevent dirt from embedding.

The shoes feel too stiff or uncomfortable.

New leather shoes often require a break-in period. Encourage your child to wear them for shorter periods initially. Ensure laces are not too tight, and check sock thickness. If discomfort persists, verify the size and fit, as incorrect sizing is a common cause of stiffness.

The rubber outsole seems to be losing its grip.

Poor grip is often due to dirt, mud, or small stones embedded in the outsole treads. Clean the outsole thoroughly with a brush and soapy water. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing again. If the sole appears worn smooth, it might indicate significant wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting the most out of your Jordan Air 1 Mid sneakers involves simple setup, understanding their general compatibility, and following proper care routines.

Setup

  1. Lacing: Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets. Start from the bottom eyelets and work your way up. Adjust the tension evenly across the foot for a snug, comfortable fit without being too tight.
  2. First Wear: Have your child try on the shoes with their usual socks. Check for any rubbing or pressure points. The padded collar should feel supportive around the ankle.

Compatibility

These sneakers are designed for versatile casual and active wear. They pair well with athletic wear, denim, shorts, and various other casual outfits. Their mid-cut design offers good ankle support, making them suitable for most non-specialized daily activities.

Care & Maintenance

To keep your Jordan Air 1 Mid sneakers looking fresh and extending their lifespan:

  • Regular Cleaning: For the leather upper, gently wipe down with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap solution (e.g., diluted dish soap). Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners which can damage the leather.
  • Spot Cleaning: For specific marks or scuffs, use a leather cleaner designed for sneakers. Follow the product instructions carefully.
  • Outsole Cleaning: Use a brush (like an old toothbrush) and mild soapy water to clean dirt and debris from the rubber outsole for optimal traction.
  • Drying: Always air dry sneakers at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or hair dryers) as this can cause the leather to crack or warp.
  • Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Keeping them in their original box or a shoe bag can help protect them from dust.
