Air Jordan 5 Fire Red

The "Fire Red" Air Jordan 5 is returning to retailers in OG form in honor of the 30th anniversary of MJ's 69-point game.

The beloved Air Jordan 5 "Fire Red" is returning to retailers this month in celebration of the 30th anniversary of the day Michael Jordan hung 69 points against the Cleveland Cavaliers (3/28/1990).

According to sneaker source @Zsneakerheadz, the "Fire Red" Air Jordan 5s are still slated to launch on March 28th - and they'll be available in sizes for the whole family. Men's sizes will reportedly retail for $200, with grade school, pre-school and toddler sizes priced at $140, $80 and $60, respectively.

Nike still has not revealed the official images but the photos that have leaked online reveal that the iconic kicks will come dressed in that familiar smooth, white leather upper equipped with that puffy 3M reflective tongue, a black midsole and fire red detailing throughout, including the classic "Nike Air" on the heel. This particular colorway originally debuted in 1990 and last released in 2013, although the retro did not include Nike Air branding.
