The Air Jordan 5 is simply a classic. We all love the silhouette and its amazing shark-tooth midsole! And if you read more about this silhouette’s and every other silhouette’s history, check this out! But what we love the most is the collaborations that Jordan Brand pulls off. So when we heard about a new Off White Jordan 5, we couldn’t help feeling the excitement!
A mashup of Three: Two Fives and A Four!
Virgil Abloh gave us the first glimpse of the Off White Jordan 5 right after the first Jordan 5 dropped! The pair featured a complete sail upper and midsole. With fire red shark teeth and metallic silver, the kicks were everything we want to show the drip! Finally, the pair’s customizable look is complete with the circles that can be cut out. However, when the more recent pair surfaced, we couldn’t help but notice that the midsole is black now!
That midsole switch made us remember three different silhouettes! First, the kicks feature the Off White Jordan 5 Black material and design. Second, the fire red shark-teeth and black midsole remind us of the Air Jordan 5… Fire Red! Finally, the colorway is probably a nod to the women-exclusive Off White Jordan 4. And that wouldn’t exactly be surprising because the kicks are both designed by Virgil!
Off White Jordan 5 Sail Release Details
Release Date: Holiday 2020
Style Code: DH8565-100
Retail Price: $225
Avg. Resale Value: $750
The average resale value is just for one sale, so it’s not exactly a value we can rely on because the secondary market values are always changing! However, we could compare! Since the kicks are a mashup between different kicks, maybe the resale value will also be a mashup. The Air Jordan 5 Fire Red currently resells for $245, while the Off White Jordan 5 black goes for $800! The newest addition to the Off White family, the AJ4 Sail is reselling for an average of $1,156. So if we look at the numbers, the kicks will definitely be worth your while.
Get Busy and Get Coppin!
It’s true that the Off White Jordan 5 is not due before the holiday season. However, the hype is already building up, and it will be so hard to cop yourself a pair. Well, that’s if you don’t have a bot in hand. But, if you have ANB 2.0 and the kicks are dropping on Nike, boy you in for a ride!
