Jordan also hit 92 three-pointers compared to only 68 in all of the prior seasons combined! Jordan again took home the scoring title, All-Star, First Team, and All-Defence. The Air Jordan 5 Retro featured a unique style cooked up by Tinker Hatfield. The Air Jordan 5 was inspired by the WW2 Mustang fighter plane. The most obvious element of the inspiration is the shark teeth shapes on the midsole of the shoe. The Air Jordan 5 also was the first Jordan Shoes to have a clear sole. This not only added a nice look to this Jordan Basketball Shoes, but provided far better traction. The Jordan 5 also featured an iridescent reflective tongue and lace locks.
