Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan debuted the Air Jordan 5 at the 1990 NBA All-Star Game in Miami, Florida. The "Grape" design was one of four original colorways. NBA rules prohibited Jordan from wearing this Charlotte-inspired colorway, but the sneaker gained even greater cultural significance when Will Smith popularized it on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

Jordan's fifth signature sneaker has dropped in countless new colorways over the years, but the four original designs remain the best. Stay locked into Sports Illustrated's Kicks On SI for all your footwear news from sports world and beyond.
