FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for professional basketball?
While inspired by basketball designs, these are lifestyle trainers meant for casual daily use rather than high-intensity competitive sports.
How do I choose the right size?
The Jordan Air 1 Mid typically fits true to size. We recommend measuring your foot and comparing it to our standard UK size chart.
Can I use these in the rain?
Leather is water-resistant to an extent, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided to prevent staining or material degradation.
How do I remove scuffs from the leather?
Light scuffs can often be removed by gently buffing with a dry cloth or a specialized leather conditioner.
What is the height of the collar?
This model features a mid-rise collar, which sits right around the ankle bone to provide a balance of support and mobility.
Troubleshooting
Creasing appearing on the toe box
This is a natural occurrence in leather shoes. Use a shoe tree when not wearing them and avoid over-tightening laces.
Difficulty cleaning the leather
Do not soak the shoe. Use a dedicated leather cleaner or a lightly dampened microfiber cloth to gently buff out surface dirt.
Outsole losing grip
Check for debris or dirt caught in the tread pattern and clean with a stiff brush to restore traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Jordan Air 1 Mids remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since they are primarily made of leather, avoid machine washing, which can damage the finish and shape. Instead, wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt after use. For tougher stains, use a mild leather-safe cleaner.
When storing, keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the material from cracking or discolouring. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, as direct heat from radiators can deform the leather. Using a shoe tree can help maintain the shape of the toe box and reduce visible creasing between wears.
