Detailed Looks // Air jordan 5 fire red 5 “Alternate Bobcats” Sample (2014)

The Air jordan 5 fire red 5 “Bobcats” was one of the 2014 releases that flew way under the radar. Maybe being one of the less appealing colorways contributed to this fact. But did you know the final version of the Bobcats 10s retailers’t the only version?

Today, English Sole gives us a peak at a Look-See Sample Air jordan 5 fire red 5 “Bobcats” that celebrated the final season under the moniker. With look-see samples, we often see Sale with minor differences. But this pair is entirely different. It starts with a simple white leather upper with white patent mudguards instead of the grey upper of the release. Around the lace loops, tongue, midsole, sock liner, and heel tabs we get splashes of 2 different blues. To break things up a bit, the shoes were fitted with some orange laces and hits of orange on the outsole. While the release lacked the addition of the “23” on the side, the look-see got the baby blue treatment on the embroidered numbering.

Would you rock this look-see sample? And do you wish they would have released this version in 2014 instead of the pair they ended up dropping?

You can see (and buy) the retail version of the colorway here.
