FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG typically fits true to size, though users with wider feet may prefer to go up a half size.

Can I play basketball in these?

While these were originally basketball shoes, modern performance footwear offers significantly more cushioning and energy return for sports.

What is the best way to clean the white leather areas?

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with a mild detergent for deeper cleaning, being careful not to soak the leather.

Are these suitable for all-day wear?

They are comfortable for casual daily wear, but the firm sole does not provide the same long-term comfort as shoes with modern foam midsoles.

Do these shoes come with extra laces?

Most Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG releases include an additional set of laces in a secondary color to allow for customization.

Troubleshooting

Creasing at the toe box

This is a natural characteristic of leather footwear; using shoe trees when not in use helps maintain shape and minimize deep creases.

Difficulty getting the foot inside

Loosen the laces down to the third eyelet from the bottom to allow the collar to open wider when sliding your foot in.

Surface scuffs on leather

Gently wipe with a damp microfiber cloth or use a specialized leather cleaning solution compatible with the material's finish.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Jordan 1 trainers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. When lacing, avoid pulling too tightly on the top eyelets to prevent premature leather creasing. Because these are made of leather, avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or mud, as moisture can damage the finish. If they get dirty, use a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe the surface; avoid soaking the shoes or machine washing them, as this can degrade the internal adhesive. Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally using shoe trees to maintain the shape of the toe box when not being worn.
