FAQs

What does 'Reverse Bred' mean for this shoe?

'Reverse Bred' refers to the colorway, which takes inspiration from the iconic 'Bred' (Black/Red) color scheme associated with Michael Jordan's early career but reverses the primary placement of the colors on the shoe's panels.

Are these suitable for playing basketball?

While they draw inspiration from a basketball shoe, the Air Jordan 1 Mid is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker. For serious basketball performance, dedicated performance basketball shoes are recommended.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed from a combination of leather and nubuck.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

It is recommended to try them on if possible, or consult the brand's sizing chart. Many users find they fit true to size, but individual foot shapes can vary.

How often should I clean my Air Jordan 1 Mids?

Regular light cleaning with a dry cloth after wear is recommended. Deep cleaning should be done as needed, depending on usage and environmental conditions.

What is the difference between Air Jordan 1 Mid and High?

The primary difference is the height of the ankle collar. The Mid features a shorter, mid-top collar, while the High features a taller, high-top collar.

Can these be worn in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended, as it can affect the materials, especially the nubuck. It's best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the toe box

Some creasing is natural with leather shoes. To minimize it, ensure you have the correct fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.

Nubuck appearing dull or dirty

Gently brush the nubuck with a suede brush. For persistent marks, a specialized nubuck cleaner can be used sparingly, following product instructions.

Laces fraying

Replace laces with a new pair. You can often find replacement laces in similar styles or colors from shoe accessory retailers.
