Collection: Air Jordan 5

Air Jordan 5 – fighter jet inspiration and translucent sole

The 1990 Air Jordan 5 was inspired by the American P-51 Mustang fighter jet, which is where the distinctive "teeth" on the midsole come from. The model also features a reflective tongue, translucent rubber on the sole, and a lace-up closure. This is a sneaker for those who like bold, sporty silhouettes from the 90s.

The Air Jordan 4 and Air Jordan 6 have a similar character. You can find all models in the Air Jordan collection.

Jordan 5 – Retro versions, collaborations and sizing guide

The Air Jordan 5collection is small but exceptionally well-curated. Alongside classic Retros such as UNC University Blue and SE Sail, you will find pairs that have become highly sought-after collaborations over the years: the Air Jordan 5 x Off-White in Sail and Muslin, and the A Ma Maniére designs in Dusk and Dawn. Completing the selection are the practical Air Jordan 5 Gore-Tex Off Noir, with a moisture-protecting membrane, and the El Grito in a light colourway.

How do I choose the right size for the Jordan 5?

The Jordan 5 has a fairly spacious upper with a pronounced heel counter and a thick, high tongue. You should usually choose your standard Nike size – this gives your foot enough room while providing good ankle support. For women’s pairs (W), remember to convert from US to EU sizing or centimetres, rather than using the US size directly.

Care: translucent sole and suede

The distinctive translucent rubber sole naturally yellows over time due to exposure to light and oxygen. Storing the shoes in their box, away from sunlight, significantly slows this process. Clean suede and nubuck uppers with a dry brush and apply a protector before rain. You can clean Gore-Tex with a damp cloth.

Due to the high prices of Off-White and A Ma Maniére collaborations, these models are frequently counterfeited. That is why every Jordan 5 in our collection undergoes a detailed inspection, and you can also collect your order from our store in Poznań. Similar styles from the same era include the Air Jordan 4 and Air Jordan 6 , all of which can be found in our Air Jordan collection.

FAQ

Are the Air Jordan 5s comfortable?

Yes, the Air cushioning and soft lining make the AJ5 ideal for everyday wear. However, they are heavier than modern lifestyle shoes.

Why do Jordan 5 soles yellow?

Translucent rubber oxidises over time. This process can be slowed by protecting the shoes from sunlight and moisture.

What makes the Air Jordan 5 Off-White stand out?

It features transparent upper panels, signature Off-White graphics and exposed stitching, giving it a deconstructed look.
