The Air Jordan 5 has had a pretty big impressive year as the popular Jordan retro model has already released in handful of different colorways. We’ve seen the shoe drop in general release colorways, premium renditions, and even a few grade school exclusives.
Continuing the festivities this weekend will be the Blue Suede colorway from the Flight Pack (the Red Suede 5s were also part of the Flight Pack). This is one of the brightest and most vibrant colorways of the Air Jordan 5 in recent memory as the shoe comes covered in a Game Royal suede upper for a buttery finish. Even the mesh side panels, eyelets, laces, and midsole have been covered in the bright shade of blue to provide the silhouette with a bold look that immediately demands attention. Serving as points of contrast are the inner liner, shark teeth on the midsole, and the Jumpman logos on the tongue, heel, and translucent outsole that have all been done in black. This pair of 5s also comes with the beloved 3M silver tongue that accompanies many of our favorite Jordan 5s.
Out of all the Air Jordan 5s that have released this year, I have to say that this Game Royal pair is towards the top of my “most liked” list. I mean, how often do we see Jordan Brand give us an all royal blue suede retro? Not too often.
We have to send out a huge thank you to the good people over at Champs Sports for providing us with this pair, it’s much appreciated!
The Air Jordan 5 Blue Suede will be releasing in full family sizes this upcoming Saturday, September 30th at select Jordan Brand retailers, including Champs Sports. Prices are as follows:
Men’s – $190
GS – $140
PS – $80
