FAQs

Is the Air Jordan 5 OG Metallic true to size?

Most users find the Air Jordan 5 fits true to size, though those preferring a wider fit may consider going up a half size.

What does the 3M on the tongue do?

3M is a reflective material that catches and reflects light, making the tongue shine brightly in flash photography or low-light conditions.

How should I store these sneakers?

Store them in a cool, dry place inside a shoe box or a humidity-controlled environment to preserve the nubuck and outsole clarity.

Can I use these for basketball?

While originally designed for the court, modern athletic shoes offer superior technology; these are recommended primarily for lifestyle and casual wear.

What is the difference between this and previous retros?

The 2016 release is a 'remastered' version, aiming for closer adherence to the materials and shape of the original 1990 production compared to previous retro releases.

Troubleshooting

Scuffs on the nubuck upper

Use a specialized suede or nubuck eraser to gently lift the mark without damaging the texture.

Outsole yellowing

Use a specialized clear-sole whitening agent or sneaker cleaner specifically designed for translucent rubber.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Faithful recreation of the iconic 1990 OG colorway
  • High-quality nubuck upper material
  • Signature reflective 3M tongue detailing
  • Authentic Nike Air heel branding
  • Timeless design suitable for casual wear or collections

Cons

  • Nubuck requires careful cleaning to avoid damage
  • Icy blue outsoles are prone to yellowing over time
  • Limited stock availability due to collector status

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are premium sneakers, proper care is essential to maintain the nubuck upper and clear outsole. Keep the shoes away from harsh liquids; use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the nubuck. To prevent the iconic icy outsole from yellowing prematurely, store the shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight. When matching with clothing, the versatile black and metallic silver color scheme pairs effectively with denim, joggers, or casual trousers.
