FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
Yes, the Air Jordan 1 Retro Mid typically fits true to standard UK sizing for adult male footwear.
Can I use these for basketball?
While based on a performance basketball silhouette, these are currently marketed as lifestyle sneakers and lack the modern high-performance tech found in current professional court shoes.
How do I clean the white midsole?
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution or a mild soap and water mixture with a soft brush to gently scrub the white rubber.
What material are these made of?
The upper is constructed from premium leather, providing a durable and classic look.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The Air Jordan 1 Mid has a standard width. If you have wide feet, you may find the leather upper slightly snug initially.
Do the laces come with the shoes?
Yes, the shoes come with a standard black lacing system pre-threaded through the eyelets.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the toe box
This is a natural occurrence in leather footwear. Use shoe trees when not wearing to help minimize deep set-in creases.
Difficulty putting the shoe on
Loosen the laces down to the second eyelet to provide more room for your heel to slide into the mid-top opening.
Slippery outsole
If the tread is clean but still slippery, ensure you are not walking on wet or polished surfaces. Over time, the rubber outsole will gain more texture with wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Jordan 1s remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: Ensure you are using the correct UK size, as the leather upper has minimal stretch.
- Lacing: Adjust the black lacing system to your preferred tension to secure your midfoot without restricting circulation.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For stubborn stains on the leather, use a damp cloth with a mild leather cleaner; avoid soaking the material.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking and color fading. Use shoe trees to maintain the silhouette shape.
- Protection: Consider applying a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray to help protect against minor spills and environmental debris.
