AJ 5 Retro Fire Red Black Tongue HQ7978-101

A true championship-era classic returns — AJ 5 Retro Fire Red Black Tongue HQ7978-101 revives one of the most iconic AJ5 looks with bold contrast, heritage details, and unmistakable Jordan attitude.

AJ 5 Retro Fire Red Black Tongue HQ7978-101

First introduced in the early ’90s and famously worn during Michael Jordan’s dominant run, the Fire Red colorway stands as one of the most celebrated designs in AJ5 history. This edition brings back the legendary look with its defining detail — the black tongue — delivering a sharper, more aggressive edge compared to its silver-tongue counterpart.

Built on a clean white leather upper, the design is energized by striking Fire Red accents across the midsole, lining, and branding. The contrast between white, black, and red creates a timeless balance that works effortlessly on the court, in the streets, or in any serious rotation.

Staying faithful to Tinker Hatfield’s original vision, AJ 5 Retro Fire Red Black Tongue HQ7978-101 features mesh side panels for breathability, the iconic shark-tooth midsole inspired by WWII fighter planes, and a translucent icy outsole that completes the heritage look.
