Air Jordan 5 Retro "Metallic Silver"
One of the first two non-original retro colorways of the Air Jordan 5 that first released in 2000, the "Metallic Silver" version was back in 2015. The pristine colorway features a white tumbled leather upper with silver accents throughout, easily making for one of the cleanest Air Jordan 5s ever.
Key Points:
Fighter Jet Midsole: Features the iconic "shark-tooth" design on the midsole, a tribute to the nose art found on WWII fighter planes.
Quarter Panel Netting: Features plastic mesh window inserts on the side panels for enhanced breathability and a technical look.
Ankle Support & Padding: Known for its "bulky" but comfortable profile, featuring a heavily padded collar and asymmetrical "anatomical" foam to lock the heel in place.
Inner Details: Many models include an upside-down "Air Jordan" patch on the inner tongue—a classic detail from the original 1990 production.
Translucent "Icy" Outsole: The first model in the Jordan franchise to utilize a clear rubber outsole, providing a distinct, premium aesthetic.
