Air Jordan

5 Retro Awake NY Black

The Air Jordan 5 Retro Awake NY Black is the result of a collaboration between Jordan Brand and New York-based brand Awake NY, founded by former Supreme creative director Angelo Baque. This collaboration combines the classic Jordan 5 design with an aesthetic deeply rooted in New York street culture, making the model immediately stand out from standard releases.

The upper is made of grainy black leather, and its massive silhouette is broken up by Racer Blue accents on the midsole and tongue trim. The side mesh panel features the distinctive “A” logo, and the heel features ‘NY’ instead of the classic “23” number, a direct reference to Awake NY's identity. This detail, along with the additional laces and dedicated tag, emphasizes the limited nature of the release. The shoe features an Air cushion in the midsole for cushioning and a rubber outsole with translucent elements for traction. The look is completed by a reflective tongue with an embroidered Jumpman logo and a lacing system with signature fasteners that are the hallmark of the series.

This model is not only Jordan 5 Awake, but above all a meeting of two worlds - the legendary basketball silhouette and the modern, urban narrative brought by Awake NY. The result is a limited edition Jordan that pays homage to the classic on the one hand, and offers a fresh perspective on the other, appealing to both collectors and those who want to stand out in their everyday style.
