Nike Air Jordan Retro Metallic V - 7/23/16

This price increase for NA really is jacked.  Remastered should include NA based on the definition of remastered, so the already high price of $190 should apply to these.  Oh well.

Love the black metallic 5's. I still have my 07's, but I might just grab this new version if it's up to par.
 
My all time favorite, I don't double up anymore but I definitely need to for this release.
 
I never liked the way 5's felt on my feet. This is a DEFINITE pass for me. For $220 also? SMH LOLOLOL
 
Soles fell off on my 2000's going to get a pair for sure maybe 2 depending on the quality. 
 
Still have a very fresh pair of 07s. Might cop to leave on ice for the next 5 or so years. I'll have a pair ready to go until I'm 30+ and I like the sound of that.
I know theyll release 3 more times in the next 10 years but durabuck and NA make this the time to get them for me personally.

Still need to see what thje height of these is like tho. More like 07 Vs or the fire reds that came out around 2013/14 (can't remember exactly). I thought those were wayy too high though.

I'm really torn on these, I've been saying all along that I refuse to pay the jacked up retail just for NA, but with these being my all time fav shoe I don't know if I can help myself. I haven't copped a pair of shoes in a long time but these might pull me out of retirement.
 
I paid $220 for my infrared 3lab5's and the quality on those is quite amazing. Hard to fathom paying the same price for these. I will have to see them in person
 
These shoes will be worn either the same day or day after release
 
They will have it. It's really not that bad. In real life they're just not that blue.
 
I hope the retail pairs don't have the blue tint, hate how it looks on these.

I really hope those are samples. For $220 JB gotta come correct. Nike outsole, non blue tint, and translucent mesh on the tongue.

I agree 100%. The maroon VI's didn't have the blue tint, so hopefully these won't have it.
 
Maroons have a milky outsole, so it's not a good comparison.  Nike has shown us official pics; they have it.  It really isn't so blue.  On my Oreo 5s you have to look very closely in the right light to see any blue.  It's supposed to slow the yellowing process.  Don't get too caught up on it folks!
