Air Jordan 5 x Awake NY 'Racer Blue'

New York Energy. Jordan Brand DNA.

The Air Jordan 5 x Awake NY 'Racer Blue' is the product of two organizations that take their craft seriously. Jordan Brand brings the silhouette and the legacy. Awake NY brings the perspective of New York City's independent streetwear scene — raw, intentional, and deeply rooted in the culture that made sneakers matter in the first place. Together on the AJ5, they created something that feels exactly like both of them.

Style number DV4982-004.

Who Is Awake NY?

Angelo Baque founded Awake NY as a love letter to New York City — its neighborhoods, its energy, its unapologetic sense of self. What started as a small independent label grew into one of the most respected streetwear brands in the game, built on authentic community connections and design that never chases trends. Collaborating with Jordan Brand represents the natural intersection of two institutions that built their reputations the same way: by being undeniably good at what they do.

What You're Getting

• Upper: Black and Racer Blue construction with Awake NY-specific design touches integrated throughout the AJ5 silhouette
• Co-branding: Awake NY branding woven into the design — subtle enough to reward those who know, visible enough to be unmistakable
• Tongue: Reflective 3M tongue — the signature AJ5 detail carried through the Awake NY collaboration
• Cushioning: Visible Nike Air unit in the heel for responsive, all-day comfort from the 1990 blueprint
• Outsole: Clear rubber outsole with herringbone traction
• Style Code: DV4982-004

Why This Collab Hits

The best streetwear collaborations don't just put two logos on a shoe — they bring a genuine point of view to the design. Awake NY's New York-rooted aesthetic translates naturally onto the AJ5, a silhouette that has always had a street credibility to match its basketball credentials. The Racer Blue colorway adds energy and edge to the collaboration without overpowering the shoe's inherent character. This is the AJ5 for people who know their history — both Jordan Brand's and New York City's.
