About the Jordan 5 Retro Grade School Fire Red Black Tongue
The Air Jordan 5's design was inspired by American World War II fighter planes and is visible through the shark-tooth shaped design on the trainer’s midsole. Other creative elements of the Air Jordan 5 include a translucent icy outsole, adjustable lace lock, visible Nike Air unit, moulded-ankle collar and reflective tongue. The first variations of the trainer came in leather and nubuck. "Nike Air" branding was featured on the back of the shoe's original run, while later retros displayed a Jumpman logo.
History and Timeline of the Air Jordan 5
The Air Jordan 5 is Michael Jordan's fifth signature trainer under the Nike brand. This model was first released in 1990 and designed by Tinker Hatfield, who also created shoes in the company's archive such as the Nike Air Max, Air Trainer and Mag. Hatfield is also credited with designing every signature trainer Michael Jordan played in during his professional career in the NBA since the Air Jordan 3.
The Air Jordan 5 was originally released in four colourways:
- Black-black/metallic silver
- White-grape/emerald
- White-fire red/black
- Black/fire red with Jordan's number 23 stitched on the heel (a player exclusive for the NBA star that never got released in the '90s)
Jordan 5 Retro Grade School Fire Red Black Tongue
The Air Jordan Retro 5 Fire Red Black Tongue trainers were a release that brought a new bold colourway to youth sizes. Jordan 5 Retro Fire Red Black Tongue trainers feature a white upper with Fire Red lining inside the collar and midsole. On the black tongue, the Jumpman branding can also be seen in that contrasting red. The midsole on the trainers also features black shark tooth detailing to bring it all together, plus an icy translucent outsole. The Jordan 5 Retro Fire Red 2016 GS is another release of the design that stays true to the classic colourway.
