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.
#WOWWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW...I LOST MY MIND..THESE #NIKEAIRJORDAN5FIRERED ARE GANGSTA.....#CLEANESTOGPAIR I SEEN
these look damn near wearable
Words cannot describe ! The condition of them is phenomenal ! (y)
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!!
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!
i didnt know the 23 was that big on the OGs though.
ahhhhhhhhh real quality...when jb cared
i have an OG pair of da breds.. but these infared are TOO HOT... definately would cop these
What..?
Hey DimeBagOswoosh, I may have to disagree with you on your comment just a tad. T H I S is the most ignorant thi I've heard today.
Fair enough, ha!
They coo but compare to retros nowadays these look fake I'm gud
Tie a noose with shoe laces and hang yourself with it !
Most ignorant thing I ever heard today.
BEAUTIFUL!
pristine midsole
O the quality the good days
Wow these make the new 5's look fake
A thing of beauty. Great pics too.
Fuego!!!
wow
i think im in love <3 there a beauty
there perfect
they dont make em like they used to
$125 remember the days :(
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.
I'M ABOUT TO CUM.....
$1500? :o Love that netting though. Og quality will always reign superior
the price on the box says 125 though???? lol but yeah its crazy that the netting isn't even yellow. the 23 looks a lot better on the OGs to me
