Air Jordan 5 Retro 'Fire Red' 2013 Vol: No 23 - Page 2

Thankfully there is no 23!

damn they look cheap as hell im sticking wit mine

^
word, red like this nike...



also, the shape of the 5s should make one's feet look small

would've rather had the black tongue

They don't look right at all, and I would not rather an icy sole on these.

Looks terrible so far

Why bother posting pics of shoes if they're still in production?

Every sample pic I can recall have never been good, Cavs 4s, Olive 9s, Chicago 10s.

I refuse to declare decision on this release until official pics.

Until then, I'm on the fence.

Meh.

Hey Niketalk fam!  Long time lurker.  The awful look of these V's motivated me to post.  There are so many things that are wrong with this shoe.  Looks awful.  Hopefully Nike fixes it, otherwise I'll keep my dough

Copped, so glad they took off the 23

Something is real off about these.. like others have said I can't quite put my finger on it.

I'm thinking it's the flames on the side combined with the sole being so clear. cmon JB


BTW, what's with you guys and your problem with the 23?

EDIT: Oh, and just my 2 cents... Black Tongue Fire Reds >>>>>>>> Grey Tongue Fire Reds. By miles.

^^^ the toebox is way too thin and long and like @green rhino123 said the V's are supposed to make your foot look small, and the front Sole on the side(under the flames) is too big it takes a way from the mid sole..

These do look a little like OG's tho

Only thing positive is no '23' on the side......... and that's it. Have this feeling the v's next year are gonna suck. Black metallics, wolf greys, and independence v's from last year all sucked. So I already know how next years will be. But hey, special boxes to look forward to, huh?

will they have a special box? or the regualr black white jumpman?

I'm assuming it will have a special box because it will be the 23rd anniversary of the 5s next year.
Just like the 4s this year and the 3s last year.

sweet

id prefer the red bottoms prob, but these are dope

people complaining about colors and ****... so what if it's has super icy sole it would turn yellow anyways. This one looks true to OG without the "23".

I don't care what you guys say these will definitely look good on feet. This will be copped since this is my first jordan back in 1990. I'm just happy they are being retroed, people likes to complain about nothing, and yet they still buy.

Correct me if I'm wrong but the VARSITY RED that JB uses now is to match the Bulls jersey, I thought.

These do look off but I'll cop. Sold my '99 a year ago on here

*waits for pics of box*

Waiting for the official pics. The sample looks like some bootleg stuff that mentalkicks sells.

Hmm something about these look, kinda off. Maybe it's this pic...

I don't have a problem with them not having a 23

There it goes.....varsity red instead of firered XD
I will wear my 2000 retros again when they release them.

The OGs and 2000 retros did not have the 23 on the side.
Only MJ's PEs in 1990 had them on it, and also not in every match.

you mean the white/fire red-black which were retroed in 2006?
Those were also nice and at least back then, they were really fire red.
Now JB is replacing every kind of red into varsity red

05's

I'm waiting for the right time to unds. My grapes

Yeah I prefer the black tongued fire reds too.

For sure, the red is completely off, and that pleather-looking material isn't looking good either (word to my powder blue 9s)
Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)

I feel the same way, though I prefer the 3M tongue

I really hope the actual production model isnt this off.

THESE GUYS TAKING THE PICS ARE POOR. THEY DON'T OWN GOOD CAMERAS.

AND SOMETHING IS OFF. TOEBOX IS FUGAZZI. NOT FIRE RED AND SOLE IS WEIRD SOMEHOW. STILL EARLY SAMPLE SO JUST GONNA PATIENTLY WAIT.
