Product Information
Full details
The Air Jordan 1 Mid "Banned" trainers are designed for men seeking iconic style with premium leather construction. The key benefit is the timeless 'Banned' colorway offering a bold aesthetic. A caveat to consider is that these are mid-top trainers, offering a different fit and feel compared to high-top versions. Key features include full-grain leather uppers in black and red, a hyper royal-white midsole, and a durable red rubber outsole, all built on the classic Air Jordan 1 silhouette.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for basketball?
While inspired by the original Air Jordan 1 basketball shoe, these mid-top trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes, not for performance on the basketball court.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is crafted from premium full-grain leather in black and red.
How should I clean the red leather parts?
Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for colored leather. Avoid harsh chemicals and excessive rubbing.
What is the main difference between the Mid and High versions?
The primary difference is the height of the collar. The Mid version has a shorter collar that hits around the ankle bone, offering a different aesthetic and feel compared to the High version which extends further up the ankle.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Generally, Air Jordan 1 Mid trainers are reported to run true to size. However, personal fit can vary, so checking sizing charts and reviews is recommended.
What does the 'Banned' colorway signify?
The 'Banned' colorway refers to the iconic black and red color scheme that was famously associated with an original Air Jordan 1 high-top that Nike claimed was banned by the NBA for violating league uniform rules.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather upper
Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize appearance, consider using shoe trees when not in use and avoid overly tight lacing.
Squeaking sound from shoes
This can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe. Try wearing thicker socks or applying a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe.
Color transfer from red accents
In damp conditions, some color transfer might occur. Ensure the shoes are dry and consider using a shoe protector spray, especially for the red leather parts.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace frayed laces immediately to prevent further damage. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly during wear and cleaning.
