History of Collaboration
The legendary partners made history with Jordan's first-ever collaboration, releasing a military-inspired Air Jordan 4 in 2005. Twenty years later, in 2025, they reprised the AJ4 with a refresh. Now, they are moving on to the Air Jordan 5, with a new colorway that is sure to excite sneaker fans.
The 'Moon Fossil' colorway features a unique combination of materials and colors, including a tan canvas upper, a translucent blue outsole, and black midsoles with a shark-tooth accent. The lateral side of the shoe features decorative spiral embroidery and a deconstructed overlock stitch, adding an extra layer of detail to the design. For branding, the collaborators have embroidered the UNDEFEATED emblem on the lateral side and a co-branded wordmark on the heel, both in olive green thread.
Design Details
While the design of the 'Moon Fossil' shifts away from the full olive green upper of the AJ4, it maintains the military-inspired essence of the collaboration. The use of aged canvas materiality adds a new level of depth to the shoe, and the oversized tongue features Jordan's classic gray and red palette. The red Jumpman symbol is centrally placed on the tongue, and a reflective stripe runs through the middle, adding a touch of flair to the design.
