FAQs
Are these Air Jordan 1s suitable for basketball?
While the Air Jordan 1 originated as a basketball shoe, the Retro High OG is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. Its construction emphasizes classic style and everyday comfort rather than high-performance athletic requirements.
How do I ensure the genuine leather lasts long?
To ensure longevity, regularly clean the leather with a soft cloth and a dedicated leather cleaner/conditioner. Store them with shoe trees to maintain shape and protect them from moisture and extreme temperatures.
What does 'Retro High OG' mean?
'Retro' indicates that the shoe is a re-release of an original design. 'High' refers to the ankle height. 'OG' stands for 'Original,' meaning it closely mimics the original 1985 release's shape, branding, and materials, including the Nike Air on the tongue.
Are these shoes true to size?
Air Jordan 1s generally fit true to size for most individuals. However, fit can vary slightly. If unsure, it's often recommended to try them on or consult size charts. The product description refers to a UK 10.5 size.
What kind of traction can I expect?
The solid rubber outsole is designed to provide reliable traction on various urban surfaces, making them suitable for daily wear on streets and pavements.
How does the 'Air-Sole' cushioning work?
Encapsulated Air-Sole units contain pressurized air within a durable, flexible bag. This technology provides lightweight cushioning and impact absorption, offering comfort with every step without adding significant weight to the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing appears quickly.
Creasing is a natural characteristic of genuine leather. To minimize it, use shoe trees when not wearing the shoes and avoid excessive bending of the foot.
Shoes feel stiff on first wear.
Genuine leather often requires a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot shape.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes be caused by friction between parts of the shoe or the insole. Try removing and reinserting the insole, or applying a small amount of baby powder under the insole to reduce friction.
Difficulty cleaning metallic gold accents.
For metallic finishes, use a very soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or brushes, as these can damage the finish. Dab gently rather than scrubbing.

Care
Proper care is crucial to maintain the premium look and longevity of your leather Air Jordans:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the genuine leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner to prevent drying or cracking. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape and prevent creasing.
- Protection: Consider applying a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially in inclement weather.
- Avoidance: Do not machine wash or tumble dry your shoes. Allow them to air dry naturally if they get wet.
