I have a feeling that these might end up a reimaged release

They already did that with the black AMMs. I think these will be faithful.

I don't think what they do with AMMs has any bearing on what they do with the reimaged series.
Like they could make the shoes leather.
JB doesn't care.

Would be an easy pass for me if so.

I’d be OK with that.

Listed my 2016s for sale today. So annoying to sell used sneakers even when VNDS, but I'm expecting this next release to be way better.

We just need a proper Jordan 1 Bred retro in the 85 cut so I can replace those too.
3's got sold, so did the '19 4's and the 2016 5's.

Rusty, don’t even put this out into the universe fam.
I would legitimately send JB hate mail if they did this bs.

Why are the majority of y'all acting clueless? These are going to be a reimagined release. The last retro was a normal release, so the writing is on the wall. I would love these in all leather, as the same leather on the reimagined 4,s. But im a little bit worried about Nike/Jordan Brand creating some type of Montrosities out of these, as using trash suede materials on these, as they did on the Royal reimagined 1,s or using all patent leather on these,like they did on the reimagined Bred 1,s.

I’m all in on a leather pair, especially if shape is good. Same as when leather 4s were announced, no one wanted, and I was for it… guess who wasn’t able to get a pair tho. Smh.

I thought the last release was decent but I couldn't get past the shiny tongue. The best thing about the 3M is it's supposed to be matte until the light hits it. Anyway, this old man is interested...

If they make this release a leather pair I’m out
Passing just like I did with the leather 4s

Of course I’d like them as original as possible…. But I wouldn’t mind being able to wear em in the rain ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’m different when it comes to these because the Black Metallic 5s are my favorite Air Jordan period. I want “23” on the side so I can somewhat see where you’re coming from with an unpopular opinion (just like mines)

Ehh… would more prefer if they did it like the 4s. Basically the exact same. Just swap out the nubuck for leather.Wouldn't eem be angry with swoosh if they went this route:

Fire reds, and black metallics are 1a, and 1b for me as far as all time faves go. I wouldn’t be mad at leather metallics, but make some suede/nubuck fire reds, and I’m flipping tables over.I’m different when it comes to these because the Black Metallic 5s are my favorite Air Jordan period.

Ya’ll gotta stop giving JB these terrible ideas man. If you want leather metallic 5s then just buy those bins lol.

Rain doesn't mess up the "nubuck" Nike uses...

Rain has never messed up Durabuck. The fact that you could throw them in the washing machine was part of the OG selling point of the material. It's not suede.
