Air Jordan Retro 5 “Blackout”

[matters7]

Il take these! Cop if they drop! I got metallics, i dont need the headache of trying to decide if i need another pair or not. See these babys later in the year no doubt! be nice if they did a motorsport 6 smoked out sole and blacked out netting tho, then theyd be 100!

I'm cool of these I got my 07 metallics still fresh!

Hes a grown man. I dont think he cares about the names of the shoes tbh...

That's why he's takin pics of himself holding some shoes like a phone?

 

[mikewazowski7]

Really should just release the metallics again... This just seems pointless, it should be a true 'blackout' if so, as in black netting (like the upcoming fear 5s, and maybe even a black sole).

IMO i think that IF ... IF ... these do release we would truly get a full on blackout .. probably with a smoked sole, well maybe that stupid blue sole theyve been using but I think JB would black it out completely except the 3M tongue would stay and the 23 would black with the silver or white accent it has.

speculation tho

i know one thing everyone could agree on tho ... durabuck/nubuck >>> suede lol

smoked outsole + black netting = must cop for me

Joints looks ashy as hell

These are not dope at all. They take away everything that is good about the metallics and it makes the shoe look depleted.

Quality doesn't look to good to me from these pics, but to each their own. 

 

[seandon23]

These would make some good shoes to have in the daily rotation tho

 

[Magic33]

If same material as black grapes, maybe

I know i was thinkin the exact same thing

 

[useeve]

I wonder if this is still true (regarding the metallics).

It's like the black grape thread all over again :\

That'd be nice, but I doubt it.  More than likely it'll be the blackouts.

yeah if metallics were dropping in 2 months there would have been rumors at the least already. I dont see blackouts releasing either though. Who knows, october is pretty wide open at the moment

Didn't metallics JUST get retro'd like 2 years ago? Seems a little close, even for JB. I doubt they will be releasing.

Edit - I forgot wc3s released in 2011 and were retro'd this year with NA. I guess I could see JB doing that with these.
