DJ Khaled is one of the most entertaining artists out there. The popular producer and DJ has been around for a very long time. Overall, he is unmatched when it comes to bringing a multitude of artists together. He is always collaborating with the biggest artists in the world, and consequently, he has a whole lot of plaques. Moreover, he has some pretty epic brand deals as well. For instance, he has been working with Jordan Brand for a while. Now, he has released some collabs with them, including on the Air Jordan 5.
This DJ Khaled x Air Jordan 5 collaboration came out back in 2022 and it was an immediate success. Although, not everyone was really able to get their hands on these things due to just how limited they were. However, when it comes to Jordan Brand collaborations, this is always to be expected. They know how to build hype, and that was especially true with the Khaled model. It's also important to note that there were a couple of Khaled x AJ5 models that went unreleased.
A Purple DJ Khaled x Air Jordan 5 Model
Thanks to the good folks over at @zsneakerheadz, we actually have a solid look at one of those models. In the video up above from SneakerCon Detroit, we can see a purple rain model. Firstly, the entire upper is just covered in purple leather. Secondly, we get a nice beige midsole with some purple on the shark teeth. Overall, this is a truly gorgeous model that is now going for exorbitant prices. It is unfortunate for all of the hardcore sneakers, but there is no doubt that the resellers are eating well right now.
Hopefully, DJ Khaled and Air Jordan will give us more great collaborations over the coming years. Considering how Khaled is perpetually "still in the meeting," we're sure we will all get a little something soon. Whether or not Khaled continues to get classic silhouettes, remains to be seen. Let us know what you think of these kicks, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the sneaker world.
