AJ5 Fire Red “Black Tongue” Release – Available at HomeTeam Seattle
Jordan Brand is celebrating 35 years of MJ’s fifth signature sneaker by bringing back one of the most iconic colorways of all time: the Air Jordan 5 Fire Red “Black Tongue.”
The Legacy of the Air Jordan 5
First released in 1990, the Air Jordan 5 was designed by Tinker Hatfield and became a game-changer on and off the court. Its standout details—the jagged shark-tooth midsole, vented panels, bump-out ankle collar, and stitched “23” on the heel—cemented its status as more than just performance footwear. The Fire Red “Black Tongue” elevated that design even further with its premium white leather upper, bold Fire Red accents, and the signature black tongue that set it apart from silver-tongued pairs of the era. Visible Nike Air cushioning and the translucent outsole with the Jumpman graphic complete the look, making this release a must for collectors and new fans alike.
