The Air Jordan 5 ‘Sunset’ is coming back. Jordan Brand has confirmed a retro release of the white, orange, and red colorway, originally a women’s exclusive drop from 2006, marking twenty years since it first hit shelves.
Jordan Brand has been one of the most consistent forces in sneaker culture since Nike launched the Air Jordan line in 1985. The brand built its name on basketball performance and has spent decades threading that heritage into a steady stream of retro releases. The mid-2000s were a defining chapter for Jordan Brand retros specifically. Colorways from that era carried a rawness and simplicity that has aged well, and the brand has leaned into that legacy by revisiting those releases as they hit milestone anniversaries.
The Air Jordan 5 is one of the most recognizable silhouettes in the entire Jordan catalog. Originally designed by Tinker Hatfield and released in 1990, the AJ5 introduced details that set it apart from its predecessors, including the shark-tooth midsole, the reflective tongue, and the lace lock toggle that became iconic in its own right. The silhouette has been reissued dozens of times across multiple colorways and sizing runs, but it has never lost its footing as a cornerstone of the Air Jordan lineup.
The ‘Sunset’ colorway is a clean, straightforward build. The upper comes in white leather, paired with a silver metallic tongue panel that calls back to the original AJ5 design. The midsole features the signature shark teeth rendered in Sunset orange, while the outsole shifts to red. Fire Red appears again on the inner lining and the heel Jumpman logo. An orange Jumpman on the tongue and a matching toggle lace lock pull the whole look together. It is a women’s-roots colorway that reads sharp across any sizing run.
First look images surfaced on June 30, 2026, alongside a locked-in release date. The Air Jordan 5 ‘Sunset’ is set to release on September 25, 2026, with a retail price of $205. The style code is IV5678-102. Retailer information has not been confirmed in the source at this time.
