Awake NY’s Air Jordan 5 Retro Pack Releases Fall 2025

Published February 24, 2025

Taking his fashion label to new heights, Angelo Baque, founder of Awake NY, has enjoyed working with Jordan Brand on multiple projects over the last few years. First teaming up with JB on the Jordan Air Ship in March 2024, the duo followed up this red snakeskin colorway with a similar blue pair. Since then, we’ve heard crickets from the camp, but now an image of Awake NY’s take on the Air Jordan 5 has appeared.

Last year, rumors spawned that stated DJ Khaled was getting a two-pack of colorways on the Air Jordan 5 as a follow-up to his original collaboration from 2022. However, this turned out to be false as the two reported colorways, Arctic Pink and Black Racer Blue, are the two pairs Awake NY works on. Here, we can see an image of the Arctic Pink colorway.

Awake NY x Air Jordan 5 Retro Arctic Pink

Across the leather upper, we see arctic pink taking over most of the paneling, accented by university red, metallic silver, and white details. The most radical change here is including Awake’s “A” logo, placed atop the midfoot where you’d typically find the plastic netting that has defined the AJ 5 for decades. The netting remains, though only the “A” logo gets the usual clear finish, while the rest comes in a matching pink.

The fan-favorite “23” embroidery is placed on the lateral heel of the left pair, opting for a nod to Awake NY on the right pair with “NY” embroidered in red. Other details on the upper include pink laces, a transparent/red lace lock, and what appears to be Awake’s logo atop the 3M-laden tongue. The black Air Jordan 5 midsole finishes the sneaker with red shark teeth details and a clear and black rubber outsole.

The Awake NY x Air Jordan 5 Retro Pack will release in Fall 2025 through Awake NY, Nike SNKRS, and possibly via select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is $210. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest releases, raffles, news, and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
