The Air Jordan 5 “Dunk on Mars” Heads to the Red Planet

The Air Jordan 5 is one of His Airness’ most famed silhouettes thanks to its bold tongue and WW2 fighter plane-inspired design. Jordan Brand’s upcoming Air Jordan 5 WMNS “Dunk on Mars” takes inspiration from Spike Lee’s iconic Air Jordan character Mars Blackmon and the red planet.

The colorway is evocative of the famed Air Jordan 5, albeit with a bit more of an earthy tone. Whereas the Toro Bravo features a bold red throughout the sneaker, the upcoming Air Jordan 5 WMNS “Dunk on Mars” comes with a more dusty red and yellowed accents on the plastic portions like the side cage, lace lock, and semi-translucent outsole. Even the sneaker’s signature shark teeth have an aged, fading look to them. 23 embroidery on the lateral heel and the Air Jordan 5’s staple reflective tongue complete the look.

The Air Jordan 5 WMNS “Dunk on Mars” is set to release on January 14 for $200 via Nike and select retailers.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
