One of Jordan Brand’s cleanest colorways is making a comeback. The Air Jordan 5 “White Metallic” returns in Summer 2026, and yes—it’s releasing with the Nike Air heel branding.
Last seen in 2015, and originally released in 2000, this 2026 retro aims to stay true to its OG look. It features crisp White leather uppers, Metallic Silver details on the tongue and teeth, and that icy Blue translucent outsole everyone loves.Honestly, it’s hard not to call this one of the most wearable, everyday AJ5s ever.
What’s new this time around? For starters, the return of the Nike Air logo is a big deal for collectors. The updated “23” font on the heel also brings the vibe back to its ’90s roots—cleaner, bolder, and more nostalgic.
