Air Jordan 5 OG “Black Metallic” Reimagined 2025 !

[PremioBinSoleFlyUnion]

Yup, the kids want I low, III, IV, IX, XII. I do think XIII low and XIX SE would sell right now though.

JB pushing so many 5s for women. I never see women in anything except 1 mid and high and III and IV.

sucks they made the outsole so blue.

so just white laces and 3m nike air?

not that much reimagining.

have bought every release of this colorway ever. one of my favs

I for real just don’t understand this release. Make the white cut lines a bit more pronounced and the change to that reflective NA. Wow, how inspired. I may even end up with a pair since the changes are so minimal, but I’ll never comprehend why we couldn’t have just got a pair of improved and entirely OG-style retros this time around.
Like, who are the consumers enticed to buy BECAUSE of these minor changes who wouldn’t have bought a straight-up OG reissue? It’s all entirely unnecessary.

Kids say 5s are dead

Shoot… I hope so. Make my life easier on release day.

To be fair, most of the shoes that fall under the reimagined line have no real “inspiration” behind them outside of “a new take on a classic release”. Outside of the lost and founds, the upcoming black toes, and MAYBE the white cement 3s, every other reimagined shoe is just a material swap

That doesn’t give anymore weight to it though lol.. They didn’t even swap materials (I hope to God ).. the changes are SO minimal that even against all the other senseless material changes, it’s unnecessary.. with or without inspiration.

only reason I’m in on this release- that the changes are minimal. BM5 is in my top 3 and I can barely swallow the non-stitched NA. I’ll cop one pair on RD or shock drop. That said, if I get em in hand and they’re miraculously waaay better in person then it’ll be a double.
Hope all are havin a great day today

Maybe this is part of the reason why the younger generation don’t respect the brand like us older cats do/did.

Everything has a gimmick attached to it.

The classics jays hold weight on their own if done the way they originally released, the right way.

Instead, we either get a tacky gimmick or a cheapened edition that may look like the OG, until u feel the cheap materials/construction in person.
