Update: Just a few weeks after surfacing, we’re back with a closer look at what to expect from this year’s “Reverse Metallic” take on the Air Jordan 5. Set to arrive just before Jordan Brand celebrates the silhouette’s 35th anniversary, this take combines a mostly-white upper with contrasting notes at the tongue and collar, as well as the sole unit. Release remains anticipated for December 7 via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $200 USD. Stay tuned for an official visual breakdown of the pair and for more info, read our initial review below.


Original Story: Jordan Brand kicked off the year by introducing several new Air Jordan 5 colorways to the world. On top of this, new looks like a “Black Cat” pair have been rumored alongside the return of the “Black Metallic” iteration for the silhouette’s 35th anniversary next year. Now, our latest update regarding the sneaker sees it arrive in a new “Reverse Metallic” arrangement.

In our initial preview of this “Reverse Metallic” colorway, the shoe notably sports a primarily-white leather upper. From there, black enters the mix at the Jumpman branding situated at both the gray tongue and the heel, as well as at the off-white lace lock. Black also lines the sneaker and covers a majority of the midsole while its “Metallic” silver detail hits the midfoot of the midsole, resting just above the semi-translucent outsole.

At the time of writing, Jordan Brand has not shared any release details regarding this “Reverse Metallic” take on the Air Jordan 5. Stay tuned for updates, including a complete visual breakdown of the pair, as we currently expect it to land on shelves on December 7 via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $200 USD.
