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

that red insole

Depending on how these turn out I may aim for a pair.

In hindsight idk why I didn't go for a pair during the 06 cycle. The black tongues and green beans I had were gotten used after the fact. Must've been eyeing something else.
 
Materials are definitely lit. But the shoe looks like it's going to collapse into itself. The cuts and angles on the 2000 looks much better put together. I'd take them OGs DS n a second though

View media item 1959546At the best least, we'll get something like the supreme 5s. I'm no longer worried. These early GM pairs are obvious fakes with really bad materials

Attempting to use logic, I've come to the conclusion that since the black Supremes have the black Durabuck and the silver 3m that the 2016 metallics will be similar in shape and materials since the black metallics essentially are expected to feature the same look

Yes, I'll be happy @doublemesh96 also.... Clear, or blue tint, it doesn't really matter to me.

Hopefully, they come with the red insole, and OG hang tag also...

Like @green rhino123 posted.

I'm not gettin' my hopes up though...
 
Great debate in here... This thread I will follow... I bet these will be way different from the supreme 5s...JB made minute changes for every remastered retro.. I doubt these will look anything like those..
 
:lol People complain about the Ashy Larry Suede on the 2011's but eager to see that chalky, ashy, matted down Durabuck on the OG's. There's a good reason Nike doesn't use that material anymore.

I'm sure the OG purists are infuriated at the blasphemy towards the OGs in here.

They are all opinions anyways, I never owned an OG pair of the 5's but just love the slimmer design If they gave me an option which to choose id say the OG, I like the slimmer toebox, people are judging a shoe built in 1989-1990 from pictures taken in 2010+ in those 20 years the shoes will age/degrade

not really, many OG shape have been the same. I've seen pics of OG pairs back in the 90s and the shape looked distinct.
