Jordan Brand has proven that no grail in its archive is above being re-released. We explored this shift in strategy in a feature last year and the trend is set to continue with 2011’s Japan-exclusive Air Jordan 5 “Tokyo23” making its return this fall for the Air Jordan 5’s 35th anniversary.
The return of the Air Jordan 5 “Tokyo23” was rumored previously and has now been confirmed with a first look at this year’s version of the shoe surfacing. As expected, it stays true to the 2011 original by featuring a bright yellow suede upper that is complemented by white and gray detailing at the netting, lacing system, and tongue. A special Kanji version of the lateral heel’s “23” callout is also present with black embroidery. According to the original rumor report from zSneakerHeadz, two version of the shoe possibly exist, perhaps in a similar manner to this year’s UNDEFEATED x Air Jordan 4.
At the time of writing, Jordan Brand has not shared any updates regarding the return of the Air Jordan 5 “Tokyo23.” Stay tuned for updates, including official images of the pair, as we currently expect it to drop on September 27 via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $210 USD.
