The limitless treasure trove that is eBay has long been one of the best spots to get your hands on holy grails. Whether it be a quickstrike release that was gone in a flash or a vintage piece of footwear history, chances are you can find it there if you look long enough. This pristine pair of the Air Jordan V’s falls into the latter category, having been kept in deadstock condition since their 1990 release. Usually when we see OG pairs like this the aging process is evident, but this pair is one of the cleanest yet, with no visible cracking or yellowing on the uppers. In addition to that, the backs sport the universally revered Nike Air logo, which has long since disappeared from retro releases. If you need to do the history on these check out our Michael Jordan Through The Years piece for some more OG photos and knowledge on a true classic. Take a look at the gorgeous pics of this Air Jordan V OG after the jump and bid on them now via member567534 on eBay.

I wouldn't know because I was still in the GS sizes, but were the originals $125? I can't remember 21 years ago, and that just seems high for 1990. Even the first retro's were in the 120's.

They coo but compare to retros nowadays these look fake I'm gud
October 6th, 2011 at 10:03 am

My first pair of Air Jordans!!!! Brings back memories and Cant believe it has been 21 years!! No other Nike player will ever have better designs that His Airness has and continues to hold. Air Jordan Will always be elevated!

What..?
October 6th, 2011 at 1:52 pm
I got the retro's of these and worn them 2x in 5-6 years. The netting/bottom is slightly yellowed and not as clear as these after 21 years. That just isn't right JB!!… I thought things got better with time and technology… instead you guys just find ways to make things cheaper but charge more? …WTF!!
