The iconic Air Jordan 5 “Tokyo” makes a long-awaited return

i Update

May 25th: According to early rumors, Jordan Brand might be planning a dual-release strategy for the Air Jordan 5 “Tokyo” in 2025. One version is expected to feature the classic Jumpman logo on the heel, while a more limited version could arrive with Nike Air branding. This potential split could add even more heat to an already hyped release—especially for collectors chasing that original ‘90s aesthetic.

The iconic Air Jordan 5 “Tokyo” makes a long-awaited return

Nike continues its wave of retro comebacks, this time digging deep into the vault to bring back one of the most coveted non-OG colorways: the Air Jordan 5 “Tokyo”. First released in 2011 to celebrate the Jordan Tokyo 23 event in Japan, the sneaker returns this September 27, 2025 – and it’s just as striking as ever.

A bold fusion of heritage and design

The “Tokyo” colorway features a standout varsity maize yellow upper, paired with black and metallic silver accents, a translucent outsole, and the signature Tokyo 23 embroidery on the heel. The combination of bold color and regional storytelling made it a grail back then – and it still holds that status today.

This 2025 version keeps the spirit of the original while likely benefiting from modern updates in materials and shape.
