Air Jordan 5 OG “Black Metallic” Reimagined 2025 !

[s dubl]

I’m not ruling these out until at the very least we get a good in hand review…. Even then, if I can snag in store, or an online spot with hassle free returns, I’ll grab a pair… if they’re less than satisfactory, they’ll go back. Being these are one of my all time favs, I have to give them some type of chance.

Easy pass if those are it.

My 2016s will suffice.

 

[JMB10215]

Get your iron ready

 

[JMB10215]

Did some toe box reshaping on my right AMM 5’s. Night and day difference as you guys can see. I’m getting pretty good at it. Shoe form in as well.

Yeah that Nubuck is looking real 2011-ish. . .

Still in for one pair. Switching out the white laces for black the first day.

Mesh finally looks bigger, almost OG level big. I'm all the way in.

Keeping my last pair of 2016

Funny you say that it looks like the same ashy nubuck used on the new foams .

 

[headdetective]

Damn it does

 

[g-time]

I’m in for a pair.

 

[s dubl]

So y’all telling me these ain’t gon go from ashy to classy?

 

[headdetective]

Ashy to trashy more like it

 

[Gordonson]

I'll be disappointed if the real pairs are nubuck. That ankle collar is a bit more puffy than I'd like too.

Not sure if I'd be disappointed enough to skip yet, but in a year with a release schedule like 2025's is reported to be; it's a toss up.

I’m glad everyone hates these. Easy cops are always appreciated.

I hope most people hate them so A) they are easy to get for people who like them, and B) so JB realizes it’s just doing stupid unnecessary things with all this.

JB don’t care bro. They’ve done way more stupid and unnecessary things over the years. This is the same company that has 3 different molds for AJ1’s and 2 or 3 molds for the AJ1 low. The madness will never end.

Any info on how you pulled this off?

Moist towel, an iron, and smooth & gentle hands is one way.

There's videos out there and somewhere here on NT.

You want to use a moist towel on the toe box, then you want to use the iron. Also put a shoe form or a sock in your shoe so it has something to support the toe box. Make sure you’re pressing around the toe box in an upward motion. Also keep your towel stays moist and that you’re not holding down the iron too long in one spot or you will burn your shoe. (I’ve done it before when I was learning)

I reshaped my cousins 2019 bred 4’s as well. This how it turned out. Compared to the original. Take your time and be light handed. The good thing is that it’s a permanent change

I have found that folding a wet white t shirt in half and placing it over the toe box--while also wetting the toe box itself using a spray bottle--and ironing over the shirt on top of the toes works best.
