Jordan Brand is giving the iconic Air Jordan 5 a bold new look this fall season.

The athletic giant confirmed via Nike’s SNKRS release calendar that the “Orange Blaze” makeup of Michael Jordan’s signature basketball shoe will hit shelves next week.

The shoe features a sail-based color scheme on the premium leather upper and unlike traditional Jordan 5 styles, the ankle collar is constructed of a netted mesh material also seen on the side panels. The shoe’s standout details are the 3M reflective silver tongue that’s paired with an “Orange Blaze” Jumpman logo and a matching orange midsole with speckled shark teeth towards the forefoot. Rounding out the look is a translucent outsole with a red logo underneath.

“Featuring hues perfect for fall, the Air Jordan 5 “Orange Blaze” is ready to light up those crisp nights,” the sportswear brand wrote for the shoe’s product description.
