Air Jordan V – Black – Metallic Silver | Fall 2011

Arriving this Fall 2011 season is the Air Jordan V in the original Black/Metallic Silver colorway. Sneaker News confirmed the release of this shoe last September, which marks the fourth overall release of this colorway (it was re-issued in 2000 and 2007 after the original release). We also received a full 3M-reflective version in a similar colorway in 2009 as part of the Toro Bravo Package as well as a premium leather variety as part of the Bin 23 Collection. The Fall 2011 version features a nubuck upper which has been described as softer to the touch than previous Black/Metallic Silver AJV releases, as well as red Jumpman on the bottom sole opposed to the original black. This colorway of the AJV is considered to be one of the most popular of all-time, with the ’07 release fetching mid-high 200′s in price on the open market. via MN & Sneaker News
