Air Jordan 5 White Metallic Releases April 25
Jordan Brand is revisiting one of the Air Jordan 5's most enduring colorways this spring. The White Metallic edition arrives April 25 featuring the reintroduced Nike Air branding on the heel—a shift that marks a broader move across the Jordan 5 retro catalog.

The Air Jordan 5 White Metallic represents the kind of foundational release that quietly anchors the calendar year. Clean, versatile, and historically rooted, this particular iteration strips the silhouette down to its most legible form: white leather construction paired with metallic accents that catch light along the midsole and tongue branding.
What distinguishes this release is the inclusion of Nike Air branding at the heel counter—a deliberate design choice that signals Jordan Brand's ongoing conversation with its own retro philosophy. The shift away from the Jumpman logo in certain positions has become increasingly common across recent Air Jordan 5 releases, positioning the model within a broader lineage of vintage inspiration rather than purely contemporary branding.
Release Details
The Air Jordan 5 White Metallic drops April 25 at select Jordan retailers. Pricing will arrive at standard Air Jordan 5 retail levels, typically $190 USD. Current market data shows Jordan deals averaging 32% off across major retailers, though full-price releases like this one rarely see immediate markdown.
For those still building their Jordan 5 rotation, this white-based entry remains one of the more accessible seasonal options—straightforward enough to layer into existing sneaker collections without demanding particular styling restraint.
