The Air Jordan 5 Retro Grape reissued after 12 years with Nike Air branding
The iconic 1990 sneaker, made famous as the chosen footwear of Will Smith's Fresh Prince of Bel-Air character, will be re-released on June 21, 2025.
Available across all ages, the adult sneaker will retail for $210.
It's also the first time the Nike Air branding has appeared on a reissue.
Distinct to other sneakers in the Michael Jordan brand, the Grape boasts a white leather upper with vibrant Grape Ice purple and New Emerald green accents on the tongue, midsole, and lace toggle.
The sneakers have been re-released before under Jordan Brand's limited-edition LS (Lifestyle) line in 2006, and in 2013.
In 2018, the Jordan Brand dropped a pair of laceless Grapes as a nod to the way Will Smith would wear them in the beloved US sitcom.
Meanwhile, Billie Eilish released a vegan Air Jordan sneaker collection in 2021.
The Bad Guy singer teamed up with the legendary brand on a variation of the Air Jordan 1 KO and the Air Jordan 15 in lime green and nude.
The megastar gushed that it was a "surreal experience" getting to collaborate with the Jordan Brand on her own designs of the signature shoes made famous by the namesake retired basketball champion, Michael Jordan.
The Grammy winner followed in the footsteps of the likes of Travis Scott, Drake and J Balvin in collaborating with the Jordan Brand.

Alan Tudyk reveals why Will Smith drama got him pulled from I, Robot promotional materials
Alan Tudyk claims he was removed from I, Robot promotional materials after "testing higher than Will Smith" with fans. The 54-year-old actor - who played robot Sonny in the 2004 blockbuster, which starred Will as Detective Del Spooner - has admitted he was "so shocked" by the decision, which came after trial audiences were shown the movie. He told the Toon'd In with Jim Cummings podcast: "A lot of people didn't know I did Sonny the robot in I, Robot, and there's a reason for that, actually. "They were doing test audiences with the movie and they score the characters and I got word back, 'Alan, you're testing higher than Will Smith'. 'And then I was gone. I was gone. There was no publicity and my name was not mentioned." Will is yet to comment on the claims. As well as voicing the robot, Tudyk - who has also appeared in the likes of Firefly, Tucker and Dale Vs. Evil and numerous Disney animations - shot the motion capture for the CGI character, noting he "put a lot into" the performance. He added on the podcast - which was released in June but has only just started to make waves online: "I was so shocked, I was like, 'Wait, what? How do they — nobody's going to know that I —' and [Fox] was like, 'Mhm'. "It was sad. I put a lot into it, because he had to move like a robot, so I had to move [like a robot].... At the time, I was very upset." Tudyk has voiced characters in everything from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and Creature Commandos to Aladdin, Moana and Superman, and he insisted the artform deserves more respect. He said: "I was in the room. I'm at the wheel, I was with the actor back and forth. "My voice is completely attached to the world that everyone is seeing."

‘Like tracksuit pants': The jeans Bella Heathcote can't live without
This story is part of the August 3 edition of Sunday Life. See all 13 stories. Each week, we quiz a prominent person about their style and the inspiration behind it. Ahead, actor Bella Heathcote. How would you describe your style? It's somewhere between five-year-old girl, teenage boy and occasionally their mother who's chic and dressed appropriately. What's the oldest thing in your wardrobe? I was only 12 when Mum died, and I inherited some of her clothing: incredible suits and designer pieces that at the time I could never imagine wearing. I recently wore a gold Roberto Cavalli dress [of hers] to my friend Phoebe Tonkin's wedding in New York City. I feel protected when I wear something of my mum's; it's a good luck talisman. And the most recent addition? A Moschino x Candy Crush backpack from 2017 that I bought on The RealReal. It's tacky and fantastic. What would you wear … on a first date? What I wear on any given day: a button-down shirt and jeans with a loafer. … on a plane? A white tee, vintage men's Levi's jeans, an oversized denim jacket, a silk scarf and sneakers. … on the red carpet? The gold Saint Laurent dress I wore to the Fifty Shades Darker premiere in 2017 was incredible. Loading What's your favourite fashion era? The 1970s, '80s and '90s all have something: high-waisted jeans, big shoulder pads, a good blazer. Who's your favourite designer? If I love something, I love it whether it's Saint Laurent or from a random op shop. Having said that, I do love what Alessandro Michele did at Gucci. Lee Mathews does a great shirt, and if I want to look good for an event, Zimmermann will have something for me. What's your fragrance of choice? 'Air' perfume oil by Bodha. I also love their incense.
