Awake NY’s upcoming collaborative collection on the Air Jordan 5 is upon us.

After revealing the first colorway in February, we have the first look at the heavily rumored second colorway that will be part of the collaboration.


In a post by bobothe_kid, the Black and Racer Blue colorway has finally been officially unveiled. The sneaker is made of a black premium leather upper- with the Blue accents throughout. The Air Jordan 5 is enjoying a moment in the bright lights this year, and this latest collection with Awake NY will surely find it’s place with sneakerheads.

Much like the Artic Pink colorway that leaked a few months ago, the Black & Racer Blue pair will feature the Awake NY “A” logo on the side panel of the sneaker. This unique alteration to the famous Air Jordan 5 netting differs, once again, though. While the Racer Pink pair featured an A logo that matched the netting, the Black colorway will feature a white logo, and black netting. This unique contrast allows the familiar logo to stand out even more.

The Racer Blue color is a familiar color for Air Jordan. It has often been used throughout retros as a nod to Michael Jordan’s love for motor sports. Now, Awake NY is taking the color to a new place.

The Awake NY Air Jordan 5 collaboration is currently speculated to release sometime in August via Awake NY.

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
