FAQs
What materials are the Jordan 1 Retro High OG trainers made from?
These trainers typically feature a combination of leather uppers, rubber outsoles, and synthetic lining for durability and comfort.
Are these trainers suitable for playing basketball?
While inspired by a basketball shoe, the 'Retro High OG' models are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle, not high-performance athletic activities. For serious play, dedicated modern basketball shoes are recommended.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
It is recommended to consult a sizing chart for Jordan Brand footwear and measure your foot length. For UK size 11.5, ensure your foot measurements align with this size. Trying them on in-store if possible is ideal.
How do I clean the coloured sections?
For the coloured leather sections, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Gently wipe the area and follow up with a dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
What is the difference between 'Retro High OG' and other Air Jordan 1 models?
The 'Retro High OG' designation typically signifies a release that is closer to the original 1985 design, often featuring specific details like Nike Air branding on the tongue and insole, and a shape that closely mirrors the first release.
Can I wear these with athletic socks?
Yes, athletic socks are suitable for comfort and performance inside these trainers during casual wear.
What does 'Cool Grey' refer to in the colourway?
'Cool Grey' refers to a specific shade of grey used in the design, contributing to the overall aesthetic of the trainers alongside black, sail, and game royal accents.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather upper
Some creasing is natural with wear, especially on leather. To minimize, avoid over-tightening laces and consider using shoe trees when not in use.
Discolouration of sole or upper
Exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals can cause discolouration. Store properly and clean with appropriate, mild products.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe. Try adding a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or checking if laces are too tight.
Difficulty finding specific sizes
Due to their popularity, certain sizes can sell out quickly. Check retailer stock regularly or consider looking for similar colourways or related models in the Air Jordan 1 series.
