Another delay has taken place.

One of the best sneakers you can get in terms of 90s Jumpman offerings is the Air Jordan 5. Overall, this is the shoe that really kicked off the 90s for Nike and Michael Jordan. Although it is not the most popular Jordan sneaker out there, it is still widely considered as an iconic offering. It had a huge pop culture showing, and to this day, fans still adore it. There are some cool aesthetics to be found here, and who can forget those shark teeth on the midsole?

Throughout 2023 thus far, there have been quite a few dope Air Jordan 5 offerings. However, it seems like there are still some more left to come out. One of them is the Jordan 5 "Burgundy." Of course, this is a retro of a colorway that we got back in the mid-2000s. Unfortunately, this model has been hit with some delays. Regardless, it is still on track to be released before the end of the summer, which is good news for sneakerheads.

Firstly, this model is covered in what appears to be burgundy suede. This look suits the silhouette extremely well. Secondly, the midsole also has some burgundy on it all while the shark teeth help add some unique design elements. Lastly, we get that iconic silver 3M Jordan 5 tongue with a burgundy Jumpman logo right in the middle of it.
