Air Jordan 5 Aqua
The Air Jordan 5 Aqua is a good rendition of Chris Paul’s player exclusive pair. In our opinion there are no real deal breakers with this shoe.
Colorway: Black/Aquatone-Taxi
Release Date: April 8, 2023
Price: $200
Chris Paul and the Phoenix Suns currently have a 19-13 record as the 4th seed in the NBA’s Western Conference. They’ve looked great and ready to contend in some games, while they’ve looked disoriented in others. Chris Paul’s early years, though, were spent in New Orleans. The Air Jordan 5 Aqua harkens back to the era when one of his highlights was dunking on, and some would say over, Dwight Howard.
