Air Jordan 5 'Burgundy' (2023)

Deep. Rich. Burgundy.

The Air Jordan 5 'Burgundy' (2023) brings one of the most luxurious color stories in sneaker culture to Tinker Hatfield's iconic 1990 design. Burgundy — deep, wine-dark, and inherently premium — gives the AJ5 silhouette a richness that few other colors can match. This is the Jordan 5 for those who appreciate depth over flash.

The AJ5 at Its Most Refined

Tinker Hatfield designed the Air Jordan 5 in 1990 with a fighter jet aesthetic — shark-tooth midsole, reflective 3M tongue, and an aggressive profile that felt unlike anything else in basketball footwear at the time. Michael Jordan wore the AJ5 during the 1990–91 season as he was building toward his first championship, and the shoe's design captured that relentless upward trajectory. The 'Burgundy' colorway takes that intensity and filters it through one of fashion's most enduring color stories — the result is an AJ5 that feels simultaneously athletic and elevated.

What You're Getting

• Upper: Burgundy leather construction with black accents — a rich, deep palette that brings out the AJ5's structural details in a new light
• Tongue: Reflective 3M tongue in tonal burgundy — the signature AJ5 detail that catches light at every angle
• Midsole: Shark-tooth midsole in complementary tones — the aggressive design element that defines the AJ5 profile
• Cushioning: Visible Nike Air unit in the heel for responsive, all-day comfort
• Outsole: Clear rubber outsole with herringbone traction pattern

Why Burgundy on the AJ5 Works

Burgundy is the color that bridges sportswear and luxury — it reads as premium in any context without ever looking out of place in a sneaker setting. On the AJ5, the deep wine tones bring out the complexity of the silhouette's design in a way that brighter colors obscure. Every detail — the shark teeth, the lace lock, the reflective tongue — reads more clearly against a rich, dark base. Pair it with black for a dark monochromatic look, with grey for tonal contrast, or with cream and off-white for a warmer, more unexpected combination.
