Jordan Brand will release an Air Jordan 5 Low for Brazilian international soccer star Neymar later this year.

This should come to no surprise as Jordan Brand has released some soccer inspired releases in the past for those that can recall the “Brazil” Air Jordan 6, and who remembers that unreleased Air Jordan 6 “First Championship” colorway.

Michael Jordan and Neymar Jr. share a mutual respect that transcends sports, countries, and languages. Neymar Jr. grew up a fan of the man and the brand, while Jordan appreciates Neymar Jr.’s style on and off the pitch. Now, as part of a unique Nike/Jordan collaboration, Neymar Jr. becomes the first football (soccer) athlete to feature the Jumpman on his performance product. Additionally, the Jordan Brand will release a Neymar edition of the Air Jordan 5 Low with “Neymar” stitched inside the tongue.

The Neymar x Air Jordan 5 Low features a full 3M reflective Cement Print upper that includes Infrared accents, Black detailing, the number 10 and 23 on the left and right side as a nod to both Neymar’s and Jordan’s numbers, completed with Neymar’s Air Jordan logo on the insole and a translucent outsole. The release will come housed in a special edition Neymar x Air Jordan box completely dress in Infrared with Black speckled detailing and both the Neymar and Jumpman logo on the side and top of the box.
