FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by Michael Jordan's athletic heritage, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG 'UNC Toe' is designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear, not for professional basketball performance.

How do I clean the University Blue parts?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher spots, a mild soap solution or a dedicated leather cleaner can be applied gently with a soft brush or cloth. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

What does 'OG' mean in 'OG label'?

'OG' stands for Original Gangster, referring to the original 1985 design and specifications of the Air Jordan 1, indicating that this release stays true to the initial iconic model.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The best way is to measure your foot and compare it to the sizing chart provided by the brand. Ensure there is enough room in the toe box without the heel slipping.

Can these be worn in wet weather?

The leather upper offers some protection, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. Using a waterproofing spray can provide additional protection against moisture.

What is the material of the overlays?

The overlays, including the black sections and the University Blue toe and heel, are also made of premium leather.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather

Use shoe trees to maintain shape when not in use. Avoid over-tightening laces. Minor creasing is natural with leather wear.

Discoloration on white panels

Clean gently with a soft cloth and a specialized leather cleaner. Protect with a leather protector spray.

Laces fraying

Replace laces with a new pair of compatible length and material. Avoid excessive friction.

Stiffness upon first wear

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break in the leather. Walking around the house can help.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the leather upper. For stubborn stains, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain the shape of the sneakers and prevent creasing.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially for the lighter colored panels.
