    Air Jordan 5 Retro Black/Metallic silver

    The AW at Vaughn mills is a good spot. Doesn't seem like too many people know about it. I grabbed two pairs of 9.5 at 6pm on launch day. Couldn't find them anywhere else. I was there today and they still had sizes left. DS V metallics 11.5 FS, Local Pickup Toronto, Ontario
