Background of the model / collaboration

Awake NY, founded by Angelo Baque (former Supreme), is known for its strong visual identity and connection to New York culture. In this collab with Jordan Brand, the iconic Air Jordan 5 model receives a complete restyling. The distinctive mesh panels on the sides are replaced by the recognizable “A” logo of Awake NY, giving this silhouette a visual deviation from the original design for the first time. Both colorways are produced in limited quantities and feature, besides the renewed netting, unique branding such as “NY” on the side, co-branded tongue labels, numbering on the inside, and customized packaging. The collab is much more than just a new colorway; it is one of the most distinctive Jordan 5 editions in recent years.
