Air Jordan 5 'Fire Red' Release Date (2025)
A classic back from 1990.ByAaron ShamimMay 08, 2025

The iconic Air Jordan 5 ‘Fire Red’ is making its highly anticipated return on September 13th. Unlike the more frequently seen silver tongue iterations, this edition brings back the less common and equally beloved black tongue variant that originally debuted in 1990. Dressed in a crisp white leather upper, the shoe features bold Fire Red accents on the midsole and lining, a sleek black tongue with a red Jumpman, and icy translucent outsole. The iconic shark-tooth detailing on the midsole adds the finishing touch to one of the most recognizable silhouettes in the Jordan lineup.

This version of the ‘Fire Red’ 5 stands out for its contrast-heavy look and historic ties to early '90s Bulls-era style. Jordan Brand continues its run of heritage-driven releases by honoring subtle variations that true collectors appreciate. Complete with “Nike Air” branding on the heel and an embroidered 23, the black tongue Air Jordan 5 ‘Fire Red’ is set to be one of the standout retros of 2025.
