The Air Jordan 5 "Hornets" release date is May 2, 2015.

The sneaker is the latest piece of evidence to suggest that Jordan Brand will be aiming towards the Charlotte Hornets color scheme going forward, which isn't exactly surprising given Michael Jordan's part ownership of the team. Then again, the AIr Jordan 5 had some of that flavor from the beginning–the "Grape" Jordan 5 has an obvious connection to that palette that was so treasured in the 1990s. There is a sample pair of the upcoming Jordan 5 "Hornets" floating around now on eBay.
