Choosing Laces for Men's and Women's Air Jordan 5
Adult Air Jordan 5 shoes use flat laces with 9 eyelet pairs, which suit a length of around 140 cm (55"). This gives ample length for various lacing styles and a secure, comfortable fit for casual wear and sport.
A flat lace keeps the classic AJ5 look. Match the original width and colour for a stock finish, or pick a contrast shade while keeping the length and shape the same. Measure the original lace rather than relying only on the model name.
Choosing Laces for Kids' and Toddler Air Jordan 5
Air Jordan 5 kids' sizes step down in length: older kids use around 140 cm (55") across 8 eyelet pairs, younger kids around 120 cm (47") across 7 pairs, and baby/toddler sizes around 90 cm (36") across 6 pairs.
Shorter laces are easier for children to handle and tie. Measure the original lace to confirm the closest length before ordering.
Getting the Right Length and Fit for the Air Jordan 5
Because the Air Jordan 5 comes in sizes from adult down to toddler, the eyelet count and lace length change with the size. The best guide is always your own lace — measure it before ordering.
Flat laces keep the original AJ5 look. A tonal colour keeps it classic, while a contrast colour lets a detail in the shoe stand out.

Remove one lace, lay it flat without stretching it and measure from one aglet tip to the other. Also note the width and count the eyelet pairs as a secondary check, then match those to the closest available length.

How should I clean Air Jordan 5 shoelaces?
Remove the laces and wash them gently with mild detergent and cool or lukewarm water, then air-dry them fully. Avoid bleach and high heat, especially on coloured or waxed laces, as these can affect the finish.
