Among one of the most iconic television shows of the ’90s — effortlessly rivaling the likes of Friends, Boy Meets World, and the like — The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air still holds a special place in many of our hearts. And alongside making us laugh and cry, the series helped define the fashion of an entire generation, as Will Smith donned clean looks and, most notably, a few pairs Air Jordan 5s.
As a nod to the Fresh Prince’s affinity for the Tinker Hatfield-designed silhouette, the Jumpman released several colorways in his honor, attributing them to “Bel-Air” itself. And though it likely will never see a retail release, this newly-revealed Air Jordan 5 “Bel-Air” looksee sample is easily among one of the best in its homage, perfectly capturing the energy and feel of the show’s title card. Much like said intertiles, blues lay the foundation for a number of neons — hot pinks and equally loud greens most of all — the latter of which were used across the “Fresh Prince” logo.
