Jordan 5 Retro Halloween

Jordan 5 Retro "Halloween" — Black / Picante Red / Glow-in-the-Dark (HQ7978-001)

The Air Jordan 5 Retro "Halloween" is one of the most visually striking seasonal releases in the Jordan Brand catalog. Released in October 2026, the shoe builds on the AJ5's storied DNA — originally designed by Tinker Hatfield in 1990 and inspired by WWII fighter jets — and gives it a holiday-season edge. The upper is wrapped in premium black nubuck, a material choice that echoes the silhouette's original Black Metallic colorway roots.

Glow-in-the-dark detailing hits the Jumpman tongue logo, the "Nike Air" heel branding, and the lateral "23" mark, while Picante Red accents land on the iconic shark-tooth midsole stabilizer — itself a signature nod to the P-51 Mustang fighter plane that inspired Hatfield's original design. A glowing translucent outsole rounds out the colorway, continuing the AJ5's tradition of an icy clear sole that debuted as a first for the Jordan line back in 1990.
