Find them at Shoe Palace on 10/17.
The V
The great Tinker Hatfield designed the Jordan V for Jordan Brand. The sneaker is considered another classic on the resume of Tinker. You can make the argument that the V was the biggest departure for the line at that time.
There are similarities that the Jordan 1-4 share. The V featured a much higher cut than the previous two Jordan models. A World War II plane reportedly inspired the design. The V was a huge stylistic departure for the series.
The Legacy of The Air Jordan V
By 1990 the Air Jordan line of signature sneakers was considered luxury basketball shoes. A status the brand still holds today in 2022. Every kid in America wanted a pair of the Jordan V sneakers.
The V proved that the Jordan models were not losing momentum by 1990. The III and IV are two of the most beloved and memorable Air Jordan models. The V had a lot to live up to, and for the most part it lived up to the hype. The V might not be held in the same high regards as the III and IV, but it is still a widely popular addition to the franchise.
Halloween
The premium black nubuck of the 5 provides a cloak like styling. There are picante red accents that will remind you of a jack-o-lanterns flickering glare. Glow in the dark details bring a chilling glimmer to the silhouette. 1990 OG details like the net-inspired tongue, quarter panels and jagged midsole make sure the shoe does not lose its OG roots.
