The All-Star weekend is almost here, and with it come all the cool sneaker releases we’ve been waiting for. One of these kicks is the Off White Air Jordan 5. It’s also part of the Jordan Chicago Creators Collection that supports the Unite movement that Jordan Brand started! But what’s the inspiration behind the kicks that sparked a lot of mixed opinions?
Off White Air Jordan 5: The Design
At first, people were very critical of the kicks. But oddly enough, they were one of the things the more you see, the more you like! The metallic upper features circular holes all over, a technique he’s using in a lot of his designs.
Another interesting additional detail is the pre-yellowed translucent outsole. It got a backlash from a lot of people who love their brand new kicks. However, others who like that “old kicks” look appreciated the yellow soles on the Off White Air Jordan 5!
