The Air Jordan 5 Retro ‘Racer Blue’ features a black nubuck upper with tonal TPU eyelets, translucent quarter panel netting, and a reflective silver tongue. Royal blue accents can be seen on the embroidered Jumpman logo and interior lining. The midsole is blue polyurethane with black shark tooth detailing and visible Air-sole cushioning in the heel. The outsole is made of translucent rubber for traction. This design pays homage to the original 1990 silhouette created by Tinker Hatfield and popularized by Mars Blackmon.
