5 Retro Awake NY Black

The Air Jordan 5 Retro “Awake NY Black” was created to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the AJ5 and is the next step in the groundbreaking collaboration between Awake NY and Jordan Brand. The minimalist black upper, made from premium leather, is enhanced with energetic accents - the iconic Racer Blue color brightens the classic design, creating a contrast that combines subtlety with boldness.

The side mesh features the distinctive Awake NY “A” logo, replacing the standard mesh panel - a change that required modifications to the production process and confirms Jordan Brand's full support. The heels feature a trendy dichotomy: one side with the classic number “23”, the other with the inscription “NY”, emphasizing the local character of the collaboration and its connection to New York culture.

Details add style and heritage: a silvery reflective tongue with double Awake/Jordan branding, transparent soles with visible Air cushioning, and sprite teeth on the side sole - these are familiar elements of the AJ5, which take on a modern, urban vibe here.
