FAQs
What is the main difference between the Mid and High versions of the Air Jordan 1?
The primary difference is the height of the collar. The Mid features a mid-top cut, offering a balance of support and ankle mobility, while the High has a taller collar for more ankle coverage.
Are the Air Jordan 1 Mid 'Bred' suitable for playing basketball?
While they are inspired by basketball shoes and feature some performance elements like cushioning and traction, the Mid version is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, not for rigorous athletic performance.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to a standard shoe size chart. Measure the length of your foot from heel to toe and compare it to the size guide provided by the brand or retailer.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from a combination of genuine leather and nubuck, offering a premium look and feel.
How should I clean the nubuck parts of the shoe?
For nubuck, use a specialized nubuck eraser or brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap. Avoid using water or liquid cleaners, as they can alter the texture.
What does 'Bred' mean in the context of Air Jordans?
'Bred' is a portmanteau of 'Black' and 'Red,' referring to the iconic color combination often associated with Michael Jordan's early career with the Chicago Bulls.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise from the sole
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Try wearing them for a bit longer, or insert a powder or tissue into the shoe to absorb moisture. Ensure they are completely dry.
Creasing on the leather upper
Creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize its appearance, use a shoe tree when not wearing the shoes and avoid bending the shoe excessively during wear.
Laces becoming worn or frayed
Replace the laces with a new pair of similar length and material. Many sneaker accessory stores offer replacement laces in various colors.
