Air Jordan 5

The Air Jordan 5 (V) is the fifth sneaker in the Air Jordan signature line. It debuted in February 1990 during the All-Star Game and was released throughout the rest of the year in four different original colorways — the “Black/Metallic”, “White/Fire Red”, “Fire Red”, and “Grape”.

While the Air Jordan 5 certainly has a range of coveted OG colorways in its family, it has also built up quite the catalog for itself in recent years by venturing into collaborative projects. Football club Paris Saint-Germain put their touch on a duo of colorways, Virgil Abloh created two iterations of the Off-White Air Jordan 5 and A Ma Maniere pulled together their own two colorways late last year.

Much the same way the Air Jordan 4 was in the spotlight for ’24, receiving a ton of release love to celebrate its 35th anniversary, the AJ5 will be a major focus in 2025. The return of the OG Air Jordan 5 “Metallic,” “Fire Red” and “Grape” already loom as some of the biggest Jordan 5 releases on the horizon, but it’s not just OGs that have our attention. A two-pack collab with the AWAKE NY Jordan 5, some commemorative heat included in the Jordan “Year of the Snake” collection, and some novel arrangements like “Earth” and “Luminous Green” make this a fantastic year to be a fan of the model.
