FAQs
What makes the 'Chicago' colorway special?
The 'Chicago' colorway is iconic because it was one of the original color schemes released for the Air Jordan 1 in 1985. It features a distinct combination of white, black, and red that has become synonymous with the Jordan brand's heritage.
Is the Air Jordan 1 Mid Chicago 2020 good for playing basketball?
While inspired by a basketball shoe, the Air Jordan 1 Mid is primarily designed for lifestyle wear. It offers comfort and style for everyday activities but lacks the advanced performance technology and support required for competitive basketball games.
How do I clean the red leather overlays?
Gently wipe the red leather overlays with a soft, damp cloth. For more persistent dirt, use a specialized leather cleaner designed for athletic footwear, applying it sparingly with a clean cloth.
What is the difference between Mid and High/Low top Air Jordan 1s?
The primary difference is the height of the ankle collar. Mid-tops offer a balance between the coverage of high-tops and the freedom of low-tops. They often feature slightly different design details and color blocking compared to their high and low counterparts.
Does the Air Jordan 1 Mid Chicago 2020 run true to size?
Generally, Air Jordan 1 Mids are considered to run true to size for most individuals. However, foot shape can influence fit. It's always recommended to try them on if possible or consult sizing charts and reviews for specific feedback.
Are these shoes breathable?
Yes, the Air Jordan 1 Mid Chicago 2020 features perforations on the toe box, which are designed to enhance airflow and breathability for the wearer's comfort.
What does MPN 554724-173-150 signify?
MPN stands for Manufacturer Part Number. This specific number (554724-173-150) is unique to this particular variant of the Air Jordan 1 Mid Chicago 2020, indicating its specific colorway, size (UK 15), and release iteration.
Troubleshooting
Creasing of the leather
Creasing is natural with leather shoes. To minimize severe creasing, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid excessively bending the shoe during wear.
Color transfer from red overlays
Newer red leather may have some color transfer. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials, especially when wet. Allow shoes to air out before wearing.
Discomfort on first wear
Like most new leather shoes, the Air Jordan 1 Mid may feel stiff initially. Wear them for short periods to break them in gradually. Ensure the correct size is being worn.
Yellowing of the midsole
Midsole yellowing can occur over time due to oxidation. This is a common characteristic of aged foam/rubber. Store shoes properly away from sunlight and moisture to slow this process.
