It seems to me as if Nike is a walking contradiction; one minute the brand is talking about cutting down production of certain inventory, and the next minute they turn around and release products they know are bound to tank. Such is the case with the upcoming Air Jordan 5 SE Sail. This is a head-scratcher; I’m not even sure why this is being released to the general public. You know they are outlet-bound, and that is not an overstatement.
The shoe features a Sail base with Coconut Milk accents on the iconic translucent netting found on the panels and tongues, as well as on the outsole. Additional notable details include Black detailing on the inner lining, and the speckled shark teeth along the midsole. Now if you’re interested in picking them up, refer to the details below

Jordan 5 Retro Sail: Resale Value
The chart above presents us with the average sale price of the shoe since April 5,2024. As expected prices in general are currently below the suggested MSRP. They went from $193 on 4/5/24 to $206 the very next day. They then went back down to $197 on the 7th then increased to $203 and $209 for the next two days and are currently $192. Let’s see what the five number summary reveals
Minimum: 164
Quartile Q1: 187.75
Median: 199.5
Quartile Q3: 207.25
Maximum: 238
The highest sale recorded was $238, size 10.5 while the lowest was $164, size 8. 25% of the shoes sold between $164 and $188 while half of them sold between $188 and $207 ( see next chart for sizes). The top 25% sales were from $207 to $238 and there were three outliers, $237,$237 and $238 corresponding to sizes 14,10.5 and 10.5.
With these outliers disregarded, the overall average resale value is $196 with an 8% volatility. So you can expect abut 95% of the shoes to sell between $170 and $226. At $196, you’re looking at a -$45 loss. Even the highest sale recorded also leads to a -$6 loss.
As evident from the records above, every single pair sold resulted in a loss, with some being worse than others. Sizes 8-10 incurred devastating losses (between $50 and $56), while sizes 10.5 to 13 also experienced significant losses (between $30 and $40). The conclusion is clear: this is not a shoe you should even consider reselling. It’s a win for buyers once again. The positive aspect is that consumers are willing to pay between $180 and $200 for this shoe (which surprises me). As a result, retailers will likely be able to move their inventory quite effectively.
