A new Air Jordan 5 is set for September.

Back in 1990, Nike came out with the Air Jordan 5. Overall, this was the third Air Jordan silhouette designed by the legendary Tinker Hatfield. It is one of those models that still gets a ton of love today, and that will likely never change. Although it isn't the most popular offering from the 90s, it is definitely a game-changer. With those shark teeth on the midsole and the 3M tongue, these are simply legendary. Moreover, their pop culture relevance also helped propel this shoe to Hall of Fame status.

Throughout 2023, this shoe has gotten its fair share of teasers for new colorways. However, there certainly isn't as much hype around this silhouette as there was in 2020. Ultimately, this makes sense as the shoe was once celebrating its 30th anniversary. Now, it is just any old year for this silhouette, and Jordan Brand is giving it a moderate yet sufficient amount of love. Thankfully, this year will bring forth the return of the Air Jordan 5 "Burgundy," which came out back in 2006. Teasers continue to hit the internet, and fans are more than excited.

Thanks to @knowing_kicks and @zsneakerheadz on Instagram, we have some detailed in-hand shots of these. Furthermore, the images are actually on-foot, which gives you an even better indication of how these things are going to look. Firstly, the upper is completely covered in an amazing shade of burgundy suede. Secondly, more burgundy is found on the midsole. Lastly, we get that signature silver 3M tongue with a burgundy Jumpman logo in the middle. Based on the comments, it is clear that these are going to be a massive success.

At the time of writing this, it is believed that the shoe will be released on September 9th of this year. However, these release details have yet to be confirmed by Jordan Brand. That said, we should be hearing something soon. Let us know what you think of this Air Jordan 5, in the comments below.
