Michael Jordan suddenly announced his return to the NBA on March 18, 1995, and quickly inserted himself into the next game on March 19th against the Indiana Pacers. During that ‘Welcome Back’ game, Michael wore the White/Black-True Red MID of the Jordan 5 Golf Tie Dye, one that is often regarded as the ‘Chicago’ MID. Aside from the obvious color coordination with the Bulls uniforms, the ‘Chicago’ was actually part of the Jordan 5 Golf Tie Dye City Series, which featured the tenth Air Jordan shoe in city-specific MIDs like New York, Sacramento, and Seattle. In 2009, notice of a Retro release (Joe Haden Air Jordan 1 BHM x TJ Ward adidas Yeezy 350 Boost Moonrock Classic Air Jordan Sneaker) had sneakerheads excited for a possible future return of the shoe, and during the Spring 2012 season, you can welcome back the Jordan 5 Golf Tie Dye ‘Chicago’ with open arms. These are slated for a release during the early part of the Spring 2012 season (January being the tentative month) with ’23’ stitched on the upper and the black/red Releasing pattern on the inner lining. Excited? Let us know if you’ve been waiting for these.
