FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?
The Jordan AJ1 Mid is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer good cushioning and traction for everyday activities, they are not intended for high-intensity athletic performance or sports.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer. It is generally recommended to wear them with the type of socks you typically use to ensure an accurate fit. If you are between sizes, consider the width of your foot and personal preference for a snug or looser fit.
What is the benefit of the mid-top design?
The mid-top design provides greater ankle coverage and support compared to low-top sneakers. It offers a classic aesthetic associated with the original Air Jordan 1 while adding a sense of security around the ankle.
How durable is the leather upper?
The upper is constructed from a blend of real and synthetic leather, offering good durability for everyday wear. Proper care, as outlined in the care instructions, will help maintain the material's integrity and appearance over time.
Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?
While the rubber outsole provides traction, the leather upper is not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage to the materials and maintain comfort.
What does 'Encapsulated Nike Air-Sole unit' mean?
This refers to Nike's Air cushioning technology where air is sealed within a durable casing in the midsole. It provides lightweight cushioning and shock absorption, enhancing comfort during wear.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the shoes are new, they may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow the materials to conform to your feet.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes occur due to moisture between the insole and midsole. Try removing the insole, ensuring both are dry, and reinserting it. If the issue persists, consult customer support.
Traction feels reduced on smooth surfaces.
The rubber outsole may accumulate dust or debris. Clean the outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap to restore optimal grip.
Leather material shows creasing.
Creasing is a natural sign of wear on leather. To minimize its appearance, use shoe trees when storing the shoes and avoid over-flexing them during wear.
