Just yesterday marked the return of the "Metallic" Air Jordan Retro 5 for the second time in almost the past five years. And while many of you strongly agreed with NDP's view on this latest Retro release from the Jordan Brand, they did seem to fly off the shelves this weekend just like any other classic Air Jordan.

Not to say that makes them a complete success, many were still quick to point out the quality of suede put to use and weren't at all happy with the icy-blue translucent outsole we're becoming accustomed to seeing from the Jordan Brand.
