FAQs

What does 'KO' in Air Jordan 1 KO Low stand for?

'KO' stands for 'Knock Out', referring to the canvas construction that was used for this particular version of the Air Jordan 1, differentiating it from the original leather models.

How do I change the velcro Swooshes?

Gently peel off the attached Swoosh from the side of the shoe. Then, align the new Swoosh with the velcro base and press down firmly to secure it.

Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?

These are primarily lifestyle sneakers designed for comfort and style, not for high-impact athletic performance. They are best suited for casual wear.

What is the colorway of this specific shoe?

The colorway is White/Sail/University Gold/Neutral Grey.

What size is this guide for?

This specific guide entry is for a UK size 10.

What is the significance of the UN/LA tag?

The UN/LA tag is a detail specific to the Union LA collaboration, often placed subtly on the shoe to represent the partnership.

Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?

No, washing machines are not recommended as they can damage the materials, construction, and adhesive. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and appropriate cleaners is advised.

Troubleshooting

Swoosh not sticking properly.

Ensure the velcro surfaces on both the shoe and the Swoosh are clean and free of debris. Try re-aligning and pressing firmly. If the velcro is worn, contact customer support.

Discoloration on white areas.

Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher stains, use a dedicated sneaker cleaner suitable for white leather and canvas. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Creasing on the upper.

Minor creasing is natural with wear. To minimize, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid over-tightening laces. Deep creases are difficult to remove entirely.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unique collaborative design from Union LA and Jordan Brand.
  • Customizable style with interchangeable velcro Swooshes.
  • Subtle, exclusive detailing like the hidden UN/LA tag.
  • Versatile low-cut design suitable for everyday wear.
  • Authentic, new product guaranteed in original packaging.

Cons

  • Limited availability due to special release status.
  • May be priced higher than standard releases due to collaborative nature.
  • The white colorway requires careful maintenance to avoid stains.
  • Interchangeable parts, while a feature, could be a point of loss if not stored properly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes. The primary setup involves choosing your preferred interchangeable velcro Swoosh. Simply detach the current Swoosh by peeling it off the side of the shoe and attach a new one by aligning it with the velcro base and pressing firmly.

Compatibility: The interchangeable Swooshes are designed specifically for this model and are not compatible with other shoe styles. The shoe itself is compatible with most casual and streetwear attire.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the leather and canvas upper. For stubborn marks, a mild shoe cleaner and a soft brush can be used sparingly. Avoid excessive water.
  2. Swooshes: When removing or attaching Swooshes, do so gently to avoid damaging the velcro or the shoe material. Store unused Swooshes in a safe place, such as the original packaging or a small pouch, to prevent loss.
  3. Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape. Ensure the original box is used for long-term storage, especially for collectors.
