Air Jordan 5's
Let's take a trip back too the 89-90 NBA season. Magic Johnson would go on too win the MVP, and the Pistons would go on too win the second of two championships. However, Michael Jordan would average 33 ppg that year in Phil Jackson's first head coaching job in the NBA. The importance of this can not be over stated. First of all, it is very rare for a first year coach to not only have his star player average 30+ ppg, but it is extremely rare for them too win 55 games in their first year. In many respects the Retro Jordan 5's are the launching pad to the first of two three peats for Jordan, and the first of three (almost four) three peats for Phil Jackson. Based on the WW II fighter plane, the 5's featured sharks teeth right above its clear, revolutionary, sole. For many people, the 5's are the reason why the Jordan line decided too release so many Retro's in all of his styles. Originally released in 89-90, they would be re-released 10 years later only too experience the same amount of fan fare and demand.
