Air Jordan 5 Retro "We The Best - Sail"

The DJ Khaled x Air Jordan 5 “We the Best - Sail” is one of several popular colorways included in the special collaboration by the famous hip-hop producer on Michael Jordan’s fifth signature shoe. DJ Khaled’s collection of pastel-colored Jordan 5s is inspired by Miami and warm weather, as the shoe’s colorful accents undoubtedly call to mind both the Florida city and its climate. The shoe is complete with a Sail-colored leather construction with translucent netting on the tongue and mid-panel. Yellow “We the Best” branding inspired by Khaled’s signature catchphrase is embroidered on the heel of the left shoe while the Jordan 5’s original “Nike Air” logo is embroidered on the heel of the right shoe. The words “Keep” and “Going” are found on the underside of the blue quilted tongue tag. Classic Jumpman logo detailing appears on the Metallic Silver reflective tongue. Release date: November 28, 2022
