This week we bring to you another clash of kicks to be spoken about for ages! (Or at least for the next day or two.) This weeks sneaker showdown stars the Air Jordan 5 “Raging Bull” The battle of “Who wore them better?” this week is between rapper Soulja Boy and movie star Jaden Smith.

The Air Jordan 5 “Raging Bull” released in 2009. It was released as part of a pack including one other shoe, but the red suede model definitely stole the spotlight. The Air Jordan 5 “Raging Bull” sports a red suede upper along with a black midsole and 3M material on the tongue.

The Raging Bulls come in a very vibrant red with a black midsole and iced out soles. This shoe is very bold, flashy and stylish. This shoe could pose a great challenge when composing an outfit to match it with. An outfit consisting red and black would be the best option for this shoe due to that being it’s primary colors. The braver style savvy sneakerheads may attempt wearing these shoes with other colors but I wouldn’t recommend that to any fashion novices. Keep the outfit sweet and simple and let the shoe speak for itself.

And now, the moment you’ve all been waiting for.

FINISH HIM!

FINISH HIM!

Who did wear the Air Jordan 5 “Raging Bull” better, Soulja Boy or Jaden Smith? Both of these celebrities are often pointed out in the fashion world for their newest duds. Giving them the benefit of the doubt, we’ll assume that they actually picked out their own outfits in the images above.

Soulja Boy rocks the Raging Bulls with neutral black jeans, a red v-neck T-shirt, a red hoodie, and of course all of his gold jewelry. Soulja definitely took the flashy approach. Since the sneakers are very flashy themselves, the amount of jewelry is somewhat overpowering the shoes.

Jaden may just be heading back to his hotel room but he still pulls off these shoes nonetheless. He may resemble a lost eskimo, but his red hoodie coupled with the Adidas jogger track-pants goes together beautifully. His overall outfit is stylish and functional, but the wombat attached to his head throws the whole outfit off.

Who do you think wore the Air Jordan 5 “Raging Bull” better, Soulja Boy or Jaden Smith?
