The distinguishing characteristics present in the Air Jordan 5, including the lace locks and shark-tooth midsole construction, are expected to appear with minor modifications.

The design inspiration for the Air Jordan 5 model as mentioned on Nike’s website reads:

“Nike designer Tinker Hatfield took inspiration from Jordan’s biting style, and likening it to an American WWll fighter plane, he designed the Air Jordan 5 with shark-tooth shapes on the midsole, paired with a clear outside. The shoe captured a ferocity truly reminiscent of its relentless muse who was fighting his way to the top of his game.”

Those interested in getting their hands on these Nike Air Jordan 5 “Medium Soft Pink” pairs are advised to stay tuned to the brand’s website for timely updates on their launch details.


In addition to the aforementioned colorway, the Swoosh label has lined up several other iterations including “Black Tongue Fire Red” OG “Grape,” “Black Metallic Reimagined,” and more. These sneakers will also be offered via Swoosh’s online and offline locations.
