FAQs
What year did the Air Jordan 1 Mid Banned (2020) release?
The Air Jordan 1 Mid Banned (2020) was released in November 2021.
What material are the uppers made of?
The uppers are made of full-grain black and red leather.
Is this the same as the original Air Jordan 1 Banned high-top?
It features the same classic 'Banned' colorway but is in a mid-top silhouette. There are minor differences in the placement of red leather, particularly around the eyelets, compared to the original high-top.
How do I clean the leather?
Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For stubborn dirt or stains, a mild leather cleaner can be applied sparingly with a soft cloth. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
What is the primary color scheme?
The primary color scheme is black and red, with a white midsole and a red rubber outsole.
Are these suitable for playing basketball?
While they feature the iconic basketball silhouette, they are best suited for casual wear and light recreational use. For serious basketball play, dedicated performance basketball shoes are recommended.
What does 'Banned' refer to in the name?
The 'Banned' moniker refers to the original Air Jordan 1 that was supposedly banned by the NBA for violating uniform rules, creating a legendary backstory for the colorway.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect.
Ensure you have measured your foot correctly according to standard UK sizing. Refer to the product's specific size chart if available. If the fit is still uncomfortable, consider exchanging for a different size if possible, or break them in gradually.
Leather shows creases or scuffs.
Minor creasing is natural with leather. For scuffs, use a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner and eraser. Regular conditioning can help maintain the leather's appearance and prevent excessive creasing.
Sole feels stiff initially.
New shoes, especially those with leather construction, often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the sole and leather to flex and conform to your foot's natural movement.
Color transfer from red accents.
In rare cases, the red dye may transfer, especially when wet. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials when the shoes are damp. If transfer occurs, clean the affected area immediately with appropriate cleaners for that material.
