Toro Bravo pack

The latest in the Jordan multi-pack series features two colorways of the Jordan 5. The pack is a two-fold dedication. The black colorway, which features a reflective upper is inspired by the species of bull (Toro Bravo) bred for the Running of the Bulls event in Pamplona, Spain. The red colorway gets its color from the red flags Runners wear during the event and represents Mike's passion for the game.

Toro Bravo is know for its aggressiveness, strength, vigor and intelligence; qualities exemplified by Micheal himself.
