Tom Hardy Wears the 2015 Supreme x Air Jordan 5 at the ‘Venom’ New York City Premiere
More from Footwear News
Tom Hardy took to the New York City premiere of “Venom: The Last Dance” Monday night wearing a high-profile Air Jordan collaboration from nearly a decade ago.
Continuing a streak of strong choices for the film’s promotional tour, Hardy wore the Supreme x Air Jordan 5 “Desert Camo” sneaker. The 2015 sneaker was one of three colorways that marked Supreme’s first-ever collaboration with Jordan Brand. Camouflage suede dresses the upper, and “94” embroidery near the lateral heel denotes the founding year of Supreme while replacing Michael Jordan’s no. 23. Half of Supreme’s logo can also be made out beneath the TPU side netting, and it appears on the lace toggle as well. Co-branding then features beneath the translucent outsole, as well as on the insole and inner tongue.
In addition to the “Desert Camo” colorway, more muted white and black editions of the collaborative sneaker also released at the same time. Nine years later, resale prices for all three come in around $500 or $600 on platforms such as StockX. The original retail price was $180.
During a Friday panel at New York Comic Con, Hardy opted for the Union x Air Jordan 4 “30th Anniversary Desert Moss” sneaker from 2021. That colorway is the least in-demand of Union’s four Air Jordan 4 editions that released in 2020 and 2021.
Hardy then wore another Air Jordan 4 earlier last week at a “Venom” fan event in Naucalpan de Juarez, Mexico, opting for the Air Jordan 4 “Bred Reimagined” that released earlier this year. Playing on one of the model’s original colorways form 1989, the sneaker switched from nubuck to tumbled leather for its upper and has been one of the most coveted of Air Jordan retros to release in 2024.
