Throwback Craft Meets Family Style
Nike and Jordan are celebrating 35 years of the Jordan 5 shoes with the new Air Jordan 5 "35th Anniversary" sneakers. These timeless basketball shoes, inspired by Michael Jordan's bold style, have continuously pushed the latest fashion trends for both street and athletic wear.
The new special men's drop delivers a light, minimalist style with a touch of pastel energy, featuring primarily white materials and medium soft pink accents. The pink highlights the Air Jordan 5's most iconic retro details, including the AJ5's shark teeth midsole, the Nike Swoosh and Michael Jordan's jersey number, 23.
The Air Jordan 5's Retro "35th Anniversary" sneakers' other highlights include:
- Reflective 3M tongue: The AJ5 revolutionized shoe tongues with a reflective metallic tongue, which adds a bit of shine to your style, especially under lights and in front of cameras.
- Mesh side panels: Lightweight mesh materials improve breathability and comfort without limiting durability or support, making them ideal to wear all day.
- Lace locks: Extra holes let you easily slip leftover lace out of the way, reducing the chances of you tripping or a loose shoelace throwing off your clean style.
- Nike Air branding: The Nike Air Swoosh and logo on the heel speak to the shoes' retro sneaker authenticity. Beyond that, Nike's "Air" technology gives your feet cushion, support and resistance for all-day, active use.
This new Jordan retro reissue joins a handful of other new and popular AJ5 colorways, including:
- Men's Air Jordan 5 Retro "Grape" 2025
- Women's Air Jordan 5 Retro "Blue Bird"
