Jordan Brand is gearing up for a remarkable year in 2024 with many exciting releases, and the iconic Air Jordan 5 is set to stand out. Fans of the brand are eagerly anticipating the return of the beloved Olive colorway and a new women's exclusive Lucky Green. Still, now there's even more buzz with announcing a new addition to the lineup. According to insiders Brandon1an and zSneakerheadz, a Mexican-inspired Jordan 5 dubbed “El Grito” will release this year.
While the exact design details remain under wraps, this new Air Jordan 5 is confirmed to feature a color palette of diffused taupe, dark pony, sail, and apple green. What's particularly captivating about this release is its thematic inspiration – Mexico and the holiday of El Grito. Referring to the famous cry for independence by Miguel Hidalgo, which marked the beginning of the Mexican War of Independence, this historic event is a pivotal moment in Mexican history and is celebrated annually as a national holiday marking the nation's independence from the Spanish empire.
The Air Jordan 5 Retro El Grito will release in September 2024 through Nike and select Jordan Brand retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is TBA.
