Air Jordan 5 OG “Black Metallic” Reimagined 2025 !

[AIR J XIII]

Not gonna lie, I genuinely forgot about the Reimagined Black Cement 4s. Lost interest in the release by the time they came out. But, they did indeed release this year alongside the Military Blues. Personally, I don't consider Reimagined releases to be proper OG retros but the evidence is there. I guess there is a chance we'll get lucky and get Reimagined Black Metallics and regular OG Grapes or something.

More than a chance…

Bred and Cherry XIIIs came out within six months of each other along with Orlando and Shadow Xs. I believe Obsidian and Taxis too even though that was an eternity ago. Maybe not the same year but Fire Red III and WC six months apart. Were XVIIIs close to each other? I only got the white pair.

Yeah they’ve introduced a new shape of 1’s, 3’s and 4’s with reimagined shoes. Seems pretty obvious this is ushering in a new shape for the V’s and more will follow next year

 

[jshortt]

They've already reshaped the 5's fairly recently. I'd imagine this is the shape we're gonna have to live with for awhile. Terrible toe box and all. I certainly hope I'm wrong, though.

I’m not sure there’s a single toebox shape currently for the 5. They’re all over the place.

5 shape is being redone as per Unloved 1s. We will have to wait and see.

Everything from the AMM's forward has had that weird 2010-era Air Max 1 cliff toe where the toe rand just kinda stops. Fingers crossed they fix that.

So the netting and the soles will be piss yellow right out the box?

 

[bestintheworld]

I can read between the lines.

In for a pair of Grape 5s. I wish the fire red pair with the black tongue would release but I’ll take a fresh pair of Grapes.

Air units will be blown and the midsole on the verge of crumbling too.

So mad about this new update to the shoe for 2025 "REFLECTIVE PIPING" thats gonna ruin a true classic!

lol literally this year. 2 weeks ago.

We counting those black/red 4's?

It’s an OG colorway is it not?

 

[1978S]

Colorway? Yes. But for this discussion was thinking OG retros...with no twists. The same way forest hills was considering those.

Folks were saying there’s no way we’re getting grapes or fire reds. With the black metallics now being reimagined I’m saying it’s almost a guarantee. We got 3s and 4s in pairs (one reimagined and one og). Same thing will happen with the 5s next year.

Gotcha. As long as we ain't considering those blk/Red 4s an OG retro we cool.

No need to speculate or try to find patterns. The big homie up top confirmed Grape 5s on the way.

If I'm not mistaken, those pics are of the '16s mocked up with the expected '24 tweaks.

Yeah I know. That’s why I said “If they look like this”.
