Where to Buy the Air Jordan 5 Retro “Grape”

The return of a classic is always something to celebrate, especially when it comes to a silhouette as iconic as the Air Jordan 5. This month, the beloved “Grape” colorway makes its long-awaited comeback, bringing with it all the nostalgia and flair that made it a standout when it first hit the scene in 1990. Worn famously by Michael Jordan and later embraced by pop culture icons like Will Smith, the “Grape” 5s are more than just sneakers – they’re a symbol of style, swagger, and hoops heritage.

First introduced as one of the original Air Jordan 5 colorways, the “Grape” pair was unlike anything else at the time. Its crisp white leather upper, rich “Grape Ice” and “New Emerald” accents, and icy outsole made it a bold departure from the Bulls-themed tones typically associated with MJ’s signature line. Over the years, the “Grape” 5s have become a cornerstone for collectors and casual fans alike, with retro releases in 2006, 2013, and 2018. That last drop, coined the “Fresh Prince” 5s, paid homage to Will Smith’s legendary laceless look from “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.”

Now, in 2025, the Air Jordan 5 Retro “Grape” returns once more – this time, truer to the original than ever before. From the colorblocking and materials to the coveted “Nike Air” on the heels, this release captures the essence of the OG pair with a level of accuracy that longtime fans will appreciate. Whether you missed out on past versions or you’re ready to refresh your rotation, this drop is one you won’t want to sleep on.

Will you be looking to grab a pair? The Air Jordan 5 Retro “Grape” will be available on Saturday, June 21st, in-store and online at DTLR.com in full-family sizing.
