Nike Reintroduces the Iconic Air Jordan 5 "Tokyo" Sneakers for 2023 Anniversary

Nike is bringing back the iconic Air Jordan 5 "Tokyo" in celebration of the Jordan Brand's 40th anniversary. Originally released in 2011 to mark the opening of Japan's Jordan Tokyo 23 store, the "Tokyo" Jordan 5 has become a highly sought-after model among sneaker enthusiasts. Although it made a brief appearance in 2020 as part of a "What The" mashup, this upcoming release marks the first true retro of the sneaker since its initial debut. What makes this reissue particularly special is the inclusion of unique details inspired by rare sample pairs, such as a yellow under-toe. The sneaker also features its signature yellow suede uppers, contrasting grey accents, Japanese characters on the heel, and a translucent icy outsole, staying true to its original design. The limited-edition "Tokyo" Jordan 5 is scheduled to launch in September on Nike's website, but availability may be limited, making it a challenging find for collectors. This year has seen a resurgence of classic Jordan 5 colorways, including the return of "Black Metallic," "Grape," and "Fire Red," and now the "Tokyo" edition is set to shine once again.
