Sneaker News showed you a first look at the Quai54 special edition this weekend, but don’t forget about the other white Air Jordan V Retro on the way this summer. This new AJ5 Retro has a perfectly timed July release to match the patriotic colorway that echoes the all-time best Olympic/USAB releases. Is all the heat getting to you? There seem to be more highly-anticipated sneaker releases in 2011 than any year before, but what better way to cool off than a crispy white pair of Jays for the dog days? Click through to see more of the white patent, Midnight Navy and Varsity Red Air Jordan 5 and stick with Sneaker News in case they become available early. via Kicks-Crew

Icy. BURRRR!
April 25th, 2011 at 6:07 pm
Actually the colorway and design is sick but the patent leather just kills em for me.
April 25th, 2011 at 6:09 pm
the patent leather kills it….
April 25th, 2011 at 6:10 pm
Nice but still on the fence
April 25th, 2011 at 6:11 pm
Funny how you cant really tell the difference between patent leather and the shiny synthetic shit leather jordan brand uses these days..
April 25th, 2011 at 6:11 pm
not feeling these , save up for the wolf greys or black/metallic 5s
April 25th, 2011 at 6:11 pm
Lots of new images for this CW but any news on the rumored Grape/Laney pack?
April 25th, 2011 at 6:12 pm
Patent leather is terrible.
April 25th, 2011 at 6:17 pm
Patent leather is dope it makes the shoe less likely to crease and catches the eye better
April 25th, 2011 at 6:18 pm
Crease Machines
April 25th, 2011 at 6:22 pm
the patent leather does kill it, but its a nice thought jb
April 25th, 2011 at 6:25 pm
so tru…
April 25th, 2011 at 6:27 pm
Can't do the patent leather.
April 25th, 2011 at 6:30 pm
Should have used the tumbled leather that is used on those Quai 54 Vs. That would have set off this nice cw.
April 25th, 2011 at 6:44 pm
Patent leather or not I can and will make'em work but but damn JB why.
April 25th, 2011 at 7:11 pm
I bet you dont even know the difference between synthetic and real leather. Tell me, are the white cement 3 and the chicago 13 that just came out synthetic leather? which part is synthetic?
April 25th, 2011 at 7:42 pm
the Hood B**** gonne be all over these i'll pass no og colorway = rainbeaters
April 25th, 2011 at 7:55 pm
Pretty desent. I'll probably still get the metallics before these though
April 25th, 2011 at 7:56 pm
I bin the thinking the same thing then i noticed earlier this month they released the bulls fitted to match the Laneys so thats a good sign i already copped the hat so they better bring the shoe out. Got a fitted for the Grapes too cant wait!
April 25th, 2011 at 8:08 pm
patent leather or not im still coppin!!
April 25th, 2011 at 8:09 pm
just wait 4 da other 5's
April 25th, 2011 at 8:28 pm
Ima still get these joints. They look nice. I honestly like the patent leather. I wont have to worry about creases as much. And i already got the 06 metallic 5's. And im not a big fan of the wolf greys. So these less people that like em, them better. Makes the line shorter.
April 25th, 2011 at 8:42 pm
new england patriot 5's
April 25th, 2011 at 9:02 pm
moves the bowels too
April 25th, 2011 at 9:51 pm
im really not feelin the patent leather either but the colorways are str8! put some navy blue or red laces in these and they"ll be FIRE!! ppl gonna buy these no matter what!!
April 25th, 2011 at 10:47 pm
they should have a great draft! was definitely thinking of my brady jersey to go with these. let them hate haha
April 25th, 2011 at 11:01 pm
uh i think thats kind of a dumb question. its obvious that the tumbled leather is the synthetic leather. however the leather on most of the 13s toebox is good quality. especailly the flint 13s. thats why jb raised the price to 160.
April 25th, 2011 at 11:57 pm
yea right that shit cracks hella much.
April 26th, 2011 at 12:47 am
They wasted all that material with THAT much patent leather on the sneaker. It shouldn't be there at all, in my opinion.
April 26th, 2011 at 1:10 am
FAIL….The Patent Killed It!
April 26th, 2011 at 1:51 am
haha gotta love the haters …im so ready for that draft!
April 26th, 2011 at 2:03 am
NOPE
April 26th, 2011 at 2:04 am
Wolf Grey's and Black 5's, I appreciate it.
April 26th, 2011 at 2:05 am
AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO CANT TELL THATS PATENT LEATHER????
April 26th, 2011 at 3:23 am
Born on the Forth of July
April 26th, 2011 at 10:22 am
id rather it be patent leather then premium leather because of the pre-crease
April 26th, 2011 at 11:15 am
eh The Black and Metallics comin' so pass on these if you dont want them. I personally need another pair of Black n Metallics but theses would be a good side pick up on the "Just 'cause note" ya dig
April 26th, 2011 at 1:39 pm
if only these were all tumbled leather, sickkk.
April 26th, 2011 at 4:57 pm
Sneek Geek has a video on these. He didn't even know they were going to be patent leather. Does the guy really ever know what he is getting or does he just surprise himself and open boxes
April 26th, 2011 at 4:59 pm
i aint sure but i heard that the pack was a rumor
April 26th, 2011 at 5:28 pm
I don't like these..the metallic 5's are better in my oppinion , these just don't appeal to me !
April 26th, 2011 at 5:59 pm
RED/WHITE & BLUE COLOR WAY + JULY 4TH RELEASE DATE = INDEPENDENCE 5'S
April 26th, 2011 at 10:19 pm
honestly i wish there was no patent leather, gonna see these in person
April 27th, 2011 at 2:50 am
tumbled leather on the 3 is synthetic? is that what you are saying? everybody who says that needs to see a real shoe factory to learn about leather. the whole white cement 3 that just came out is made out of real leather. everything leather part of it is real leather not synthetic.
