The Air Jordan 5 V Retro white/black/fire red were released on January 5, 2000 and retailed for $120. They feature Nike Jordan 5 an all white leather upper, with red inner lining, visible air sole unit, and a 3M reflective tongue. Other specifications include low profile Zoom Air units, a carbon fibre sheath, medial air vents, a phylon midsole, and a quick lace system. They make great basketball sneakers, as the herringbone pattern on the outsole provides great traction and grip. The black midsole contrasts so much from the white upper that it draws attention to the shoe, making it a definite head turner.
