.. the Air Jordan 5 Retro 'Blue Bird' sits higher off the ground than a 1. The ankle support is better, but it's less flexible. For all-day walking, I'd probably grab a Jordan 1 Low. But for a fun fit where I want my shoes to be the focal point? This is the move. The women's sizing fit me perfectly, which is a huge plus. Comparing it to other retros? The wmns Air Jordan 5 Retro 'Blue Bird' has a more premium feel than some recent GR Jordan 5s - the nubuck is nicer, for sure. Versus a Jordan 1? You're getting more tech and structure here. The ankle support and midsole design are totally different beasts. It's a classic performance silhouette, through and through. Major "pros" right away: 1) The "colorway" is executed perfectly. 2) The Jordan 5's "design" – the shark teeth, the mesh – is timeless. 3) It's a comfortable, supportive wear. Now, a "con" for some: the price. At $225 USD, it's an investment. Also, that white midsole "will" get dirty. If you're rough on your shoes, maybe think twice. But for collectors & casual wearers? It's a great pick-up. Who is this shoe for? If you love unique colorways and classic Jordan series silhouettes, this is a must-consider. It's perfect for someone who wants to add a pop of color to their rotation. The "wmns air jordan 5 retro blue bird womens" is great for casual wear, not sport. At $225 USD, it's a solid pickup for fans of the model.
