Sneakerheads, get ready—one of the cleanest Air Jordan 5 colourways ever is making its long-awaited return! The Air Jordan 5 ‘Wolf Grey’ is officially set to drop in Spring 2026, marking its 15th anniversary and reigniting hype among OG collectors and avid sneaker lovers alike.

First released in May 2011, the ‘Wolf Grey’ instantly became a grail, flying off shelves and dominating the resale market. While it wasn’t part of the original 1990 Air Jordan 5 lineup, its sleek design and premium materials cemented its status as one of the best non-OG colourways ever.

A Timeless Design with Premium Details

Inspired by WWII fighter planes, the Air Jordan 5 was crafted by the legendary Tinker Hatfield, introducing game-changing elements like reflective tongues, lace locks, and an icy translucent outsole. 


The 2026 version is expected to stay true to the soft grey nubuck upper, complete with white contrast stitching, silver reflective tongues, and an embroidered “23” on the heel—all signature elements that made the original a standout. Finishing touches like the smoky translucent outsole and white shark teeth midsole detailing keep the aesthetic crisp and classic.

Where & When to Cop

The Air Jordan 5 ‘Wolf Grey’ 2026 will be available at select Jordan Brand retailers, online, and via Nike.com. While pricing details haven’t been confirmed, expect it to align with Jordan Brand’s latest pricing structure.
