Air Jordan 5 'Space Jam Pro Stars': Where to Buy
The Air Jordan 5 'Space Jam – Pro Stars' are one of the most fun colorways in the silhouette. I'm a fan of the Air Jordan 9 and Air Jordan 11 Space Jam designs, but I hadn't given much thought or attention to the AJ5 iteration. It's worth your time. Let's talk sneakers.

Where Can You Buy The Air Jordan 5 'Pro Stars'?
Retail was $190 on June 6, 2015, and the official colorway is White/Infrared 23-Light Poison Green-Black.
The nickname has never been settled. Some read the green as a nod to the Space Jam logo. Others tie it to ProStars, the 1991 cartoon starring Michael Jordan, Bo Jackson and Wayne Gretzky. Jordan Brand has not picked one.
So both names are correct and neither is official.
