Air Jordan 5 Retro OG 'Grape' 2025 – The Original, Untouched
35 Years Later. Still the One.
The Air Jordan 5 Retro OG 'Grape' is not just a retro — it's a restoration. First released in 1990 as part of the original AJ5 lineup, the Grape colorway defined a generation of sneaker culture. The 2025 OG reissue brings it back exactly as it was: original color blocking, original materials spec, original energy. No revisions. No updates. Just the shoe as it was always meant to be worn.
Key Features
- OG color blocking faithfully restored to the original 1990 release — white base with bold grape and ice blue accent detailing throughout
- Full-grain leather upper with mesh netting side panels for the authentic AJ5 texture and breathability
- Reflective 3M tongue detailing and Jumpman tongue label, OG spec
- Lace lock system inspired by fighter jet oxygen masks — the AJ5's most recognizable functional detail
- Visible Air-Sole unit in the heel for cushioning rooted in MJ-era performance heritage
- Shark tooth midsole in icy translucent finish — the AJ5's most iconic profile detail
- Translucent ice outsole consistent with the OG 1990 construction
Style Notes
The Grape 5 has one of the most recognizable color stories in sneaker history — the white, grape, and ice combination is instantly placed by anyone who knows the archives. Keep the outfit tonal or go vintage-inspired with washed denim and a clean white tee. This is a grail for OG collectors and a statement for everyone else.
