2013 will be a huge year for Jordan Brand fans because it marks the return of “Nike Air” on some models and is also the return of the “Grape” 5′s. TSG “heard it through the Grape 5′s” and knew that it was about time for this original colorway to make a comeback. It looks like it’ll stick with the original and will constructed from a similar smooth white leather materials throughout the upper. The color blocking of the aqua and purple accents will also remain the same as the OG’s. The AJ5 2013 Retro’s will also come equipped with a OG box as well.
Look for the Air Jordan 5 “Grape” 2013 Retro to hit JB accounts sometime next year. Stay tuned to TSG for the latest updates. Until then, enjoy the detailed images below.

I was hoping for Nike Air on the back… lol Still a hot colorway.
I see we have a lace lock color change.
Now, I’m assuming it’s supposed to match the icey sole. But, still.
Better than red!
not that it’s a huge deal, but what’s with the lacelocks? first pics had red lace locks and now a bluish color that still doesn’t seem to match.
Whooooo! I missed out the last time, Definitely not this time!
What a problem is the lace lock …LOL!!!
After seeing the article on “Nike Air”, these just don’t look very appealing. How much will these sell, $175.00? I can bet the price will rise by next year! :/
@AISneaks dude right???? Think JB is just messing with us… OGs had purple ones right? Not that its that big of a deal but still…
they should just put the black lace lock back into play. the blue sole is enough of a change…
They should keep the pumps black
Yeah this lacelock thing is crazy. I’ll take it off anyway
Yeah, keep bitching about lace locks and dont buy them.
Make me easier to get my pair.
The grapes never had nike air on the back just saying
Julio, you know these shoes orig dropped in like ’91, right?
Justin i was 5 so no i dont i meant the others
