    Five of the finest (x2)

    I’ve always been drawn to samples. Sure, their exclusivity is attractive, but it’s more about ‘what could have been‘ had they seen a retail release for me. A lot of the time, they’re garbage and left on the cutting floor for good reason. But from all the samples I’ve seen over the years, there’s a hell of a lot that would have made instant classics. I’ve always wanted to do these lists, and I feel that now’s the right time. And I’m going to start with a silhouette that really isn’t one of my favorites; the Air Jordan 5.

    Look, I know, it’s a classic silhouette. But for me, they’re uncomfortable as hell. Ultra-flat with no cushioning and tongues higher than Snoop Dogg make it very uncomfortable wear. That being said, I would wear every single pair from this list below — they are straight fire!

    SO here are ten of the best Air Jordan 5 Samples that never made it to market (but wish that they did)

    Air Jordan 5 “Midnight Navy” // 2006

    Air Jordan 5 “Grey/Burgundy” // 2006

    Air Jordan 5 “Grey/Navy” // 2006

    Air Jordan 5 “Wedding” // 2006

    Air Jordan 5 “CP3” // 2013
