Ben Felderstein Throughout the illustrious history of the Air Jordan 5, one of its most appreciated non-OG iterations that dropped in the year 2000 is the blue and yellow-laden “Laney” color scheme that pays homage to MJ’s high school alma mater. Now, 19 years later, the Jumpman is reviving the homage with a primarily Varsity Royal colorway of the same silhouette with hits of Light Charcoal and Varsity Maize to create another Laney-friendly version of MJ’s fifth signature model. Other deviations from the first drop include an attractive paint splatter pattern on its Charcoal midsole as well as the presence of buttery nubuck as opposed to the usual leather textile found of this particular Jumpman model. Laney-colored kicks tend to usually do well on the market, so it would be in your best interest to study up on the store list below to help you come this sneaker’s February 2nd drop.
