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

[urn0tlike]

Yeah those definitely look ironed. Never seen one pair looking like that. Those look more like silver tongue fire reds.

Whoever did it did a good job. No marks or anything.

Was just watching Terminator 2 and John Connor was rocking these I think.

You are correct, AllGrails ....

That’s dope that those toys even made them but why do they have bare feet switch outs . at the obvious stunt man on the motorcycle.

Went barefoot to protect his Jordans

Fit hard too

I really don't remember there was a version of these with the little 23 on the sides that Jordan wore after all these years.

 

[1c3m4m]

So we need this version, the true original

That's the ONLY version he ever wore in games, other than when he first broke them out in the '90 All-Star game. His '90 Playoffs pairs all had the 23.

 

[1c3m4m]

So the public technically never had a original release of these

 

[green rhino123]

I prefer the original retail release.

 

[msu313green]

I think the 23 looks better on the black tongues personally but if these dropped w/ Nike Air I'd probably cop

 

[1c3m4m]

i missed metallics last time and refuse to pay the resale prices so these are a must

Not in 1990. I believe the 2007 retro was the first black metallic release with the 23, but it was the wrong font and that release had the Jumpman on the heel rather than Nike Air. So no, a copy of what MJ wore in 1990 has never released.

What are a must? There's no scheduled release of these again that anyone knows of. I guess you just mean whenever they return, which could still be years away.

Let me dream

I'm in for a 23 with Nike Air and the correct font.

I also demand the 3M pop like that photo without the glossy 3M we've been getting

Could be worse we could have full 3m but yeah I remember them having that oily look to them

 

[engineer]

Metallics are way better without the 23 imo. It ruins the clean look. I think it works on the black tongue pair because the shoe is already so busy.

 

[papit]

Edit

 

[1c3m4m]

3m pop on tongue
Small tongue
Nike air
23 on side
Icy sole

Make it happen jb

 

[headdetective]

Don’t want my black metallics with the 23.

Way cleaner and versatile without.

 

[wizards23brown]

We could def use a retro with the 23 while we wait for the next regular black metallic retro.. Would be nice if they could bring back that oily durabuck material..

 

[1c3m4m]

I like the 23, the 2006 pair was a good retro, quality wise everything was good imo just no na

Right if 5’s didn’t crack I would buy a pair now lol.

Just scored these for a deal compared to market

It's most likely the 2000 version that Ichiro Suzuki is wearing here. It's also surprising he's wearing Jordans because he doesn't strike me as a person who would be into popular or flashy shoes. He looks like the type to wear something nondescript with his street clothes because his playing style wasn't flashy but pretty fundamental, which was still great.
