Air Jordan V (5)
Head Designer: Tinker Hatfield

Phil Jackson took over as head coach for the Bulls in the 89-90 season. This gave the Bull's an extra boost and everything was flying. Jordan kept on playing his game and set a personal best when scoring 69 points in a game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

First flying design
Once again Hatfield came up with a revolutionary design for the new shoe. A few elements were picked up from its predecessor but it featured a great silver/reflex tounge and a clear/see-through rubber sole which gave it a totally unique look. Also there were lacelocks which made it easy to strap them on.

The design is rumoured to be inspired by the WW2 Mustang fighter plane and the most obvious elements that shows this are the shark teeth shapes on the midsole.

Hatfield has since then found inspiration from other fast means of conveyance, for instance the Ferrarri 550 M (XIV) and the X-15 (XV).
