FAQs
Is the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG true to size?
Yes, most users find the Air Jordan 1 fits true to size, though those with wider feet may prefer a half-size up.
Can I use these for professional basketball?
While originally a performance shoe, modern technology has advanced significantly; these are best suited for lifestyle and casual use.
What is the best way to prevent yellowing on the soles?
Keep the shoes out of direct sunlight and store them in a climate-controlled environment to slow the natural oxidation process.
Are the materials authentic leather?
Yes, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG University Blue is constructed with premium leather uppers.
How do I lace these high-tops properly?
Lacing styles are personal; however, leaving the top eyelet unlaced is a popular method to provide more flexibility while walking.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather toe box
Creasing is a natural result of the leather's flexibility; use a shoe tree after wearing to help maintain the shape.
Surface dirt on white leather
Gently wipe the affected areas with a clean, damp microfiber cloth and mild leather cleaner immediately after exposure.
Stiff ankle collar feel
Allow for a gradual break-in period; wearing the shoes for shorter durations initially will soften the leather and padding.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Jordan 1s remain in top condition, proper maintenance is essential. Given the leather composition, store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material cracking or color fading. When cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface debris and a damp cloth with mild soap for the leather panels. Avoid submerging the sneakers in water. For compatibility, this model pairs best with casual or streetwear-inspired outfits. For those utilizing orthotics, the factory insole can be removed to accommodate custom insoles, though the shoe's internal volume is best suited for standard-width feet.
