Official Images Show the First Air Jordan 5 Wolf Grey Retro Since 2011

Jordan is starting the year off with some serious hits. Adding heavy-hitting collabs to the Air Jordan 1 High OG and the Air Jordan 3 with fragment design x Union LA and Levi’s, respectively, The Jumpman is going all out to start 2026. But even if you don’t hit on this month’s ultra-exclusive drops, Jordan is just getting started on a year full of retro heat.

We first got word that the Air Jordan 5 Retro Wolf Grey was returning in 2026 in August last year, and now, with the pair hitting shelves soon, we’ve finally got official images of the classic grey 5. Covered in wolf grey nubuck with a 23 logo on the heel and a reflective tongue, the colorway stands out with a speckled shark teeth midsole and an icy blue outsole.

The Wolf Grey 5 isn’t an original colorway, but it’s been 15 years since its first and only release in 2011, making it long overdue for a retro return. Since then, the Jordan 5 has gone through a few retro retoolings to bring it back to its OG 1990 shape, so this version will be slightly different compared to the 2011 pair.

The Air Jordan 5 Retro Wolf Grey will be released February 28, 2026 through Nike and select Jordan Brand retailers online and in-store. Available in full-family sizing, the retail price is set at $220 (mens), $150 (GS), $90 (PS), and $75 (TD).
