Explore the History Behind the Air Jordan 5 Retro Pre-Grape

The Air Jordan 5's design was inspired by American World War II fighter planes, and is visible through the shark-tooth shaped design on the sneaker's midsole. Other creative elements of the Air Jordan 5 include a translucent icy outsole, adjustable lace lock, visible Nike Air unit, molded-ankle collar and reflective tongue. The first variations of the sneaker came in leather and nubuck. "Nike Air" branding was featured on the back of the shoe's original run, while later retros displayed a Jumpman logo.

History and Timeline of the Air Jordan 5

The Air Jordan 5 is Michael Jordan's fifth signature sneaker under the Nike brand. This model was first released in 1990 and designed by Tinker Hatfield, who also created shoes in the company's archive such as the Nike Air Max, Air Trainer and Mag. Hatfield is also credited with designing every signature sneaker Michael Jordan played in during his professional career in the NBA since the Air Jordan 3.

The Air Jordan 5 was originally released in four colorways:

  • Black-black/metallic silver
  • White-grape/emerald
  • White-fire red/black
  • Black/fire red with Jordan's number 23 stitched on the heel (a player exclusive for the NBA star that never got released in the '90s)

Jordan 5 Retro Pre-Grape 2015

The design of these Air Jordan 5 blue shoes was actually created back in 1990 by Tinker Hatfield, but it was shelved in favor of the renowned Jordan 5 Grape colorway. In 2015, the Jordan 5 Pre-Grape was finally available to consumers. It has all the hallmarks of the Jordan 5 Retro, including a high-top design, a reflective shoe tongue, a visible Air unit, and a translucent sole. The previously unreleased colorway features a dark blue upper made out of leather with turquoise accents on the lining, Jumpman logo, and the sole.
