FAQs

Is the Air Jordan 5 Retro Metallic 2016 an exact replica?

Yes, it is a remastered version designed as a faithful reproduction of the original 1990 OG release.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed from premium black nubuck.

Does the tongue reflect light?

Yes, the tongue features 3M reflective material that glows brightly under direct light or camera flashes.

Does the shoe feature the Jumpman or Nike Air logo?

The 2016 retro release features the authentic Nike Air logo on the heel.

Can I use these for sports?

While originally designed as a basketball shoe, this retro release is primarily intended for lifestyle and casual wear.

How do I prevent the midsole from cracking?

Wear the shoes regularly to prevent the polyurethane foam in the midsole from drying out and crumbling, known as midsole rot.

Troubleshooting

Icy outsole is turning yellow

Yellowing is a natural oxidation process of the translucent rubber; store the shoes in an airtight container with silica gel packs to slow this effect.

Difficulty cleaning nubuck

Avoid liquid cleaners; use a dry nubuck-specific brush or a gum eraser to lift dirt without damaging the texture.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Faithful reproduction of the 1990 OG colorway
  • High-quality nubuck construction
  • Includes authentic Nike Air branding
  • Highly visible reflective 3M tongue
  • Classic Air Jordan 5 silhouette

Cons

  • Nubuck requires specialized cleaning care
  • Icy outsoles are prone to yellowing over time
  • Limited availability due to the 2016 release date

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Air Jordan 5 Retros in optimal condition, focus on proper storage and cleaning methods. Since the upper is made of nubuck, avoid using water-heavy cleaning solutions; instead, opt for a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust and a specialized nubuck eraser for deeper stains. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the midsole foam from degrading and the icy outsole from yellowing prematurely. Using sneaker trees can help maintain the shape of the toe box when the shoes are not being worn.
