Air Jordan 5 OG “Black Metallic” Reimagined 2025 !

[pwguy]

Until they slim down this entire model so they don't feel like boots, AND give us a proper OG retro and shape I'm gonna pass. Getting super selective on what I acquire. Tired of having sub-par retros that I wear only intermittently that are a pain to sell when I realize I don't want them. Gotta give me that feel like the ATCII hot lava, WC3 reimagined, AM90 infrared, etc.

I feel this. I’ve stopped buying non OG colorways at this point (the Cool Grey concept being the 1 exception).

Those “blueberry” 12’s are nice but I know if I bought them I’d wear them a few times and end up selling them.

Collabs? Are are you strictly OG right now

The metallic 5 is a top 5 Air Jordan for me. Just like the reimagined 4’s im going to reluctantly buy because I need em in the rotation. Sold my 2016’s. New pics look a lot better

Collabs? Are are you strictly OG right now

No strict rules per se. If I think something is great I'll buy it. I sold off over 30 pairs in the past 1.5 years and my collection is pretty solid right now in terms of what I enjoy wearing. I have 4 pairs still listed that I can't seem to unload, and few more candidates, but not many.

Really like the Black Toe 1s and the upcoming Black and Red 1s, but, frankly, don't love wearing 1s and only have the Lost and Founds now, so planning to pass on these other classics. Hopefully I can stick to that. Only planned acquisition currently is the WC4s. Got rid of my 2016s for those. Had those in '89 and looking forward to a proper retro.

Haven't seen any collabs yet I'm interested in.

I'm not really a fan of the 5 but the black color way of every model is is just crack fire. I'm in

 

[OldManJays]

I might be in if they don’t end up using that ashy suede. The shape looks a lot better than previous pics.

I might cop but not sure yet....

Wow they look nice in that pic

Lol this thread will change its tune by release

These look clean. I like that the nubuck is a deep black. The contrast between the uppers and the 3M lines is dope.

 

[g-time]

I kind of like the white laces to make that contrast pop as well

Same, and I usually hate when people do contrasting lace swaps.

Maybe my subconscious giving these a pass because Jordan wore them with the white.

Ready for a pair

The grey color of the 3M helps imho

Yes, only for the 1990 1st rd vs the Bucks. The whole team wore white “accessories”, wrist bands, compressions, etc.

Mike understood the power of contrast.

 

[Blackjesus-23]

That Toe Box is..... well........TRASH! lol

 

[big1236]

I'm going to wear one shoe with white laces and the other one with black laces....

Spoiler: SPOILER

JUST KIDDING - I'M TOO OLD FOR THAT ISH

If Nike really wants our attention, start putting videos on SNKRS with someone explaining the procss of making the shoes. Explaining materials, shape, etc. Instead of giving us weird fashion videos and weird people explaining weird stuff nobody wants or wears.
