Jordan 5: high quality sneakers
Since you can get these pairs on Eds Store, it is obvious that the Jordan 5 meet superior quality criteria. However, this does not prevent sneakers from distinguishing themselves more by certain particular assets. We think, in particular, of their very flexible soles, their carefully detailed finish and their original look. Jordan 5 sneakers have everything to please and can get married to almost any outfit.
Like all the pairs of the brand, the Jordan 5 have extra flexible soles, but which remain extremely resistant. This is due to the fact that these sneakers are designed, at the base, to play basketball. This sport is particularly explosive and players often need to change course quickly, in order to remain unpredictable in the eyes of their opponents. It turns out that the soles of the Jordan 5 allow them to do this, at the highest level of competition.
Under the heels, the Jordan 5 take up the same air chambers that made the first Jordan Air success. These compressed rooms, which are almost the signature of the Jordan model, have unique rebound properties that promote movement on the basketball court. In addition, the use of premium materials, such as polyurethane gum, makes sneakers more flexible, while remaining durable.
A unique model of sneakers
The unique design counts among the undeniable advantages that cannot be withdrawn from the Jordan 5. These sneakers are ultra-comfortable and limit the risks of sprain in the ankles. Also, their sole is compatible with all forms of feet, which guarantees more control and stability. Moreover, like the Jordan 3, the Jordan 5 include secondary laces holes, which are specially designed for the lower feet. All the laces of the Jordan 5 laces are surrounded by plastic buttons, which aim to prevent the laces from getting rid of.
On the other hand, the Jordan 5 are particularly well airy, which makes them even more pleasant to wear. Just examine the sneakers on the sides to notice the ventilation points found there. These parties contribute significantly to the ventilation of sneakers, which is ideal if you plan to play sports with it. Note that this function also exists on almost all Jordan models, but that it has been improved with the appearance of Jordan 5. Our bestsellers from the collection are the famous Jordan 5 Retro Dark Concord.

Air Jordan 5: A design up to its history
More than 35 years after the creation of Air Jordan 1 by Peter Moore, the collection of so -called "signature" models by Michael Jordan has more than thirty silhouettes that continue to seduce lovers of basketball sneakers. Among all these pro-models which contribute to ensuring the sustainability of the Jumpman in the street, there are some references marked by a dimension that is both historical and iconic almost immeasurable. This is the case of Air Jordan 5 which, as its name suggests, is none other than the fifth basket with which MJ has walked the prestigious parquets of the NBA. If the air Jordan 5 occupies a place of choice in the hearts and collections of sneakers lovers, and therefore on Daddy sneakers, it is as much thanks to its history as in its design, two pillars of the model that we wanted to talk about the shop.
Another classic of Tinker Hatfield.
The first thing to know about the Jordan 5 is the name of its creator. It is Tinker Hatfield, the famous nike designer to whom the Swoosh brand owes its most emblematic sneakers, starting with the Air Max 1. AJ5, as it is more commonly called, was designed in 1990 With the ambition to respond more precisely to the needs and expectations of the legend of Chicago Bulls. Hatfield was inspired by his style of play, which he compared to a fighter plane, when Michael Jordan could "come out of nowhere and attack". With the player's agreement, the former interior architect chose the P-51 Mustang, an American torch of the Second World War, and reproduced the shark teeth on the front of the intermediate sole.
More aggressive than his "little sister", the air Jordan 4, the Jordan 5 air immediately stood out from the previous iterations of the series thanks to its updated structure with TPE mesh on each of its side panels, as well as An accessory added to the laces to adjust the adjustment of the foot, and a touch of 3m reflective on the tab of the laces. Also more comfortable thanks to an adjusted adjustment around the ankle, the silhouette responded to all the requirements of its Highness and really brought it to the top on March 28, 1990. That day, the native of Brooklyn registered no less than 69 points against the Cleveland Cavaliers, a world class performance which offers a fantastic exhibition in the air Jordan 5 '' Fire Red '' which he carries for the occasion.
Then embodied on television by Spike Lee, in a memorable advertising campaign, then by Will Smith in The Fresh Prince, the Air Jordan 5 continued his ascent on and outside the basketball court in style.
Unsurprisingly, it is regularly available by the creative teams of Nike and the Jordan Brand who sometimes associate with the most prominent artists to bring it into another dimension, often more contemporary. We think for example of Virgil Abloh who revisited it in two very limited colorways that you can obviously find on Daddy Sneakers. Off-White Air Jordan 5 Black and its alternative "Sail" are waiting for you on the site, alongside other ultra-popular versions like the Anthracite '' AJ5.
