FAQs
What materials are the Air Jordan 1 "Pollen" made from?
The shoe features a tumbled leather upper with "Pollen" Yellow leather overlays. The tongue is typically made of nylon, and the outsole is constructed from durable rubber.
Are these shoes suitable for basketball?
While the Air Jordan 1 was originally a basketball shoe, the "Pollen" retro is primarily intended for lifestyle wear. For performance on the court, modern basketball-specific shoes are recommended.
How do I clean the "Pollen" Yellow overlays?
Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the overlays. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution or a dedicated leather cleaner can be used. Always test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
What is the release date of the Air Jordan 1 "Pollen"?
The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "Pollen" was released in August 2021.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Generally, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG models are known to fit true to size for most wearers. However, personal preference for fit tightness may vary.
What does "OG" stand for in Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG?
OG stands for "Original." In the context of sneakers, it signifies that the shoe is a reissue or retro of an original colorway or model from the shoe's initial release period, often featuring details as close as possible to the original design.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather can withstand light moisture, these are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials and maintain their condition.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather upper
Minor creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, avoid over-tightening laces and use shoe trees for storage. Specialized crease protectors can also be used while wearing.
Discoloration of "Pollen" overlays
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean with a damp cloth and specialized leather cleaners if necessary.
Reduced traction on outsole
Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly with a brush and water to remove dirt and debris that may be hindering grip.
Stiff leather upon first wear
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in gradually. Consider using a leather conditioner after the initial break-in period to soften the material.
