Air Jordan 5 Retro "Red Suede"

Not to be confused with the “Raging Bulls” colorway, Jordan Brand ushered in summer 2017 with this Jordan 5 in “Red Suede.” As the name infers, the upper is dressed in a tonal red suede, including the coated mesh panels and lace tabs. The glaring difference between the “Raging Bulls” and this shoe is a matching red midsole, black shark teeth, and an icy outsole to match the reflective 3M tongue. The result is a slick sneaker that stays true to Michael Jordan’s lineage as a perennial player for the Chicago Bulls. And that’s without mentioning that these kicks are bound to turn heads.

Key Points:

Fighter Jet Midsole: Features the iconic "shark-tooth" design on the midsole, a tribute to the nose art found on WWII fighter planes.

Quarter Panel Netting: Features plastic mesh window inserts on the side panels for enhanced breathability and a technical look.

Ankle Support & Padding: Known for its "bulky" but comfortable profile, featuring a heavily padded collar and asymmetrical "anatomical" foam to lock the heel in place.

Inner Details: Many models include an upside-down "Air Jordan" patch on the inner tongue—a classic detail from the original 1990 production.

Translucent "Icy" Outsole: The first model in the Jordan franchise to utilize a clear rubber outsole, providing a distinct, premium aesthetic.
