Product Information
Full details
The Jordan AJ1 Mid trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of classic style and modern comfort. Their key benefit lies in offering the iconic AJ1 aesthetic with durable construction and reliable cushioning for everyday wear. A potential consideration is that the mid-top design may offer less ankle mobility than low-top alternatives. Key features include a durable leather upper, encapsulated Air-Sole unit for lightweight cushioning, and a robust rubber outsole for traction. This iteration brings a fresh twist with bold color choices and crisp leather.

FAQs
What materials are the Jordan AJ1 Mid trainers made of?
The upper is crafted from a blend of real and synthetic leather, providing durability and a structured feel. The outsole is made of rubber for traction.
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
The Jordan AJ1 Mid trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. While they offer cushioning and traction, they are not specialized performance athletic shoes.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher marks, a leather cleaner can be applied sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
What is the benefit of the encapsulated Nike Air-Sole unit?
The encapsulated Nike Air-Sole unit provides lightweight cushioning, helping to absorb impact and offer comfort during wear.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer and compare it with your foot measurements. It is recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole offers some traction, the leather upper is not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the material.
What is the difference between AJ1 Mid and other AJ1 models?
The 'Mid' designation refers to the height of the collar, sitting between the ankle bone and the calf. Other models like the AJ1 High offer more ankle coverage, while AJ1 Low models offer less.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
This is common with new leather footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods around the house to allow them to break in and conform to your feet. Consider wearing them with appropriate socks.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides good traction, but performance may be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Clean the outsole regularly to remove any debris that might affect grip. Exercise caution in such conditions.
Leather creasing or scuffing
Creasing is natural with leather. Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth or a leather conditioner. For more significant damage, consult a professional shoe repair service.
Discoloration or marking on the upper
For light marks, try wiping with a slightly damp cloth. For colored stains or scuffs, use a cleaner specifically designed for the type of leather. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
