WHERE’S THE MATADOR WHEN Y’NEED ‘EM?

All opinions aside for this one real quick people, but this has to be one of the ILLEST packages to ever bless the shelves of ANY sneaker store on the planet. I mean, judging from the OG color scheme, the “throwed” (quick Houston terminology 4 ya) suede material, and the overall “RETRO GO” on these 2 pairs, this one looks like it’s gonna be yet another, SOLD OUT spark for the market.

Testing my media/informal memory, these bad boys were inspired by a special bull who was bred for “The Running of the Bulls” in Pamplona, Spain. Had to be one hell of a bull, eh?  The black Retro 5 represents both the Toro Bravo, known for its aggressiveness, strength, vigor and intelligence, as well as MJ’s exciting , yet, SUCCESSFUL basketball gig (no disagreement here). The shoe comes with an entirely black reflective upper with red accents. Something unique to the Air Jordan 5’s in the Toro Bravo Pack is the sunburt on the midsole has red tips similar to the tips of the horns on the Chicago Bulls logo; DONE DEAL! As for the box? Like a Toro Bravo ready to escape from captivity, the wooden gates that separate the bull from his escape. But hold your spears, ladies and gents! The release date is set to Saturday, May 30th, 2009. MARK THOSE CALENDERS & get your “capote” ready! The rage is nearly out of the cage.
