Care Instructions
Maintaining the leather on your Air Jordan 1 Mid is crucial for its longevity and appearance.
- Regular Cleaning: After each wear, gently wipe down the leather surfaces with a soft, dry brush or a slightly damp, clean cloth to remove dust and light dirt.
- Deep Cleaning (Leather): For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner. Apply a small amount to a clean cloth and gently wipe the affected areas. Avoid saturating the leather with water.
- Conditioning: To prevent the leather from drying out and cracking, apply a quality leather conditioner every few months. This helps to keep the leather supple and moisturized.
- Lace Care: Laces can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water if they become dirty. Air dry them completely before re-lacing.
- Storage: When not in use, store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain the shoe's shape and prevent creasing.
- Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather to add an extra layer of protection against elements and spills.
