Jordan Brand is celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Air Jordan 5 with a release of the iconic “Fire Red” iteration.

Taking design cues from its original 1990 release, the basketball silhouette is crafted with a clean white leather upper that’s starkly contrasted by flaming hits of “Fire Red” on the collar, inner tongue, logo details, midsole and lace toggle. Its silver 3M reflective tongue adds additional luxe detailing, while visible branding hits make their way on to the stitched Nike Air and Jumpman logos on the heel and tongue. The model rests on a black midsole and a peaking icy blue outsole finally tied together with white laces for a clean finish.

Priced at $200 USD, the Air Jordan 5 Retro “Fire Red” will reportedly release April 25.
