After a billion leaks and an ever-so-slight delay, the Off-White x Air Jordan 5 "Sail" and apparel collection has now been officially unveiled in all its glory. First teased by Virgil Abloh himself back in February following the release of the "Black", this has been the only thing on our minds for the past eight and a half months.
Before we talk about the clothes we need to talk about the star of the show. Crafted from translucent TPE, the "Sail" is painted in a clean cream hue that gives off some serious vintage vibes. An oversized 3M tongue references the OG Air Jordan 5, while technical verbiage and circular cutouts also make an appearance as an ode to Off-White's signature deconstructed aesthetic that's been all the rage over the past three years.
Down below, you'll be greeted with a blacked out Nike Air midsole, and this is then lined with a rubber outsole that's tinted in a subtle yet striking yellow hue for a retro look that is sure to turn heads.
In terms of the apparel, the hero has got to be the hoodie that comes complete with Off-White x Nike co-branding, as well as a pair of matching warmup pants that are also painted in a complementary palette. Additionally, the capsule also boasts a white T-shirt that's features hand-illustrated graphics by Philip Burke. A continuation of his "Hoop Heroes" series, Michael Jordan himself is seen shooting hoops while a young Abloh dreams on.
Now for those all-important release dates. If you need the Off-White x Nike Air Jordan 5 "Sail" in your personal collection you'll be pleased to find out that it's dropping on October 29th - not too long to go now! In terms of the clothing, we'll have to wait another two months for those to finally launch. Let us know what you think of this collaboration, and while you're here, you might as well take a closer look at the Off-White x Nike Air Zoom Tempo NEXT% "Black"!
