The Jordan 5 Retro Plaid (GS), in grade school sizes, is a high top sneaker in multiple shades and patterns of plaid.
Designed for NBA superstar Michael Jordan’s aggressive performance on the basketball court, the Jordan 5 is known for its a shark tooth design on the outer midsole, which designer Tinker Hatfield revealed was inspired by a World War II Mustang fighter plane. The Retro Plaid rendition builds on the Jordan 5’s bold inspiration. Red plaid forms the foxing and vamp, accented by black and white plaid and mesh overlays and a brown plaid collar and tip. The tongue is black and white checker plaid. Tying the aesthetic together are orange laces with a transparent stay and black, gray, and orange midsoles and outsoles. The Jumpman logo in orange appears on the tongue and rear heel.
Our experts feel that the best feature of the Plaid Jordan 5 is its unmistakable blend of plaids, which is highly uncommon and unique in basketball sneakers. The Jordan 5 Retro Plaid (GS) released on October 20, 2023, and retailed at $160.
