FAQs
When were the Air Jordan 5 Retro Midnight Navy released?
The Air Jordan 5 Retro Midnight Navy was released on November 10, 2023.
What are the main colors of this Jordan 5 iteration?
The main colors are Midnight Navy, Black, and Football Grey, with accents of white and semi-translucent icy blue on the outsole.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is primarily constructed from leather.
Does this model feature the original 'shark teeth' design?
Yes, the midsole features the iconic 'shark teeth' design, adorned with speckles.
How should I clean the translucent icy sole?
Use a damp cloth or soft brush for general cleaning. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be used gently, but always test in an inconspicuous area first to avoid damage.
What is the typical sizing for these sneakers?
These are men's sizing, based on UK standard foot measurements.
Are these suitable for athletic performance?
While they offer good traction and comfort for casual wear and light activities, they are primarily designed as lifestyle sneakers and may not be optimal for high-impact professional sports compared to dedicated performance footwear.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and midsole. Try removing the insole and applying a small amount of powder or a dryer sheet underneath.
Difficulty lacing sneakers tightly
Ensure laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets. If the laces are worn, consider replacing them with a fresh pair. Adjusting the lacing pattern can also help achieve a more secure fit.
Discoloration of the icy blue outsole
The translucent 'icy' sole can naturally yellow over time due to oxidation and UV exposure. Minimize prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Gentle cleaning with a specialized sole brightener may help mitigate slight discoloration, but significant yellowing is often irreversible.
Tight fit on initial wear
The leather upper may require a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short periods initially. Using thicker socks during the break-in phase can help stretch the material slightly.

Compatibility: These sneakers are designed for adult males. Their sizing is based on standard UK men's foot measurements. They are compatible with a wide range of casual apparel.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Uppers: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher stains on the leather, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid excessive water.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to clean the speckle details and the icy blue outsole. For stubborn marks on the translucent sole, a magic eraser can be used gently, but test in an inconspicuous area first.
- Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning with mild soap and water. Allow to air dry completely before re-lacing.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration, especially for the translucent outsole. Using shoe trees can help maintain shape.
