Another Air Jordan 5 is making a comeback.

There have been a lot of amazing Air Jordan 5 colorways to come out over the years. Although this silhouette is sometimes overlooked, real sneakerheads know this is a fantastic shoe. Overall, it helped usher in a new era of Jumpman. The 90s were a great time for sneakers, and this was certainly an example of that. Moreover, just a few years ago, the silhouette celebrated its 30th birthday. This turned out to be huge for sneakerheads, as the shoe got a whole host of great retros and new colorways.

Since that time, the Air Jordan 5 has continued to get some amazing new offerings. This is especially true when it comes to re-releases of models from the mid-2000s. Subsequently, we have been getting word that the Air Jordan 5 "Burgundy" would be returning to the market in 2023. Now, we are also getting some AJ5 teasers for 2024. One of them just so happens to be this "Olive" model, seen below. Of course, this is a colorway that was released all the way back in 2006.
