With the 2016 Olympics kicking off this past weekend, Jordan Brand started things off with a bang by releasing the Air Jordan 7 Tinker Alternate. While this upcoming weekend there won’t be any Olympic-themed releases, next week there will be.

JB will be giving us a brand new colorway of the Air Jordan 5 that takes inspiration from the prized gold medal. This Air Jordan 5 features a white leather upper with black accents on the upper eyelets, inner liner, midsole, and the Jumpman branding on the tongue and heel. What captures everyone’s attention are the hits of Metallic Gold that cover the tongue, lace lock, and the shark teeth on the midsole. You’ll be able to purchase the Air Jordan 5 Olympic on August 20, 2016 for $190.

Author’s Take

If the tongue wasn’t patent leather/glossy I’m pretty sure I would have bought these. I love the combination of black and gold but that shiny tongue just makes these look too extravagant.
