UPDATE 8/21/25: The 2025 Air Jordan 5 “Tokyo” releases on August 23rd in Japan through SNKRS Japan. It will launch in the U.S. on September 27th. The reissue commemorates the 2011 “JORDAN TOKYO 23” event in Yoyogi Park and features the nostalgic Kanji embroidery on the heel.

Original Story 5/23/25:
Heads up, sneaker lovers—the Air Jordan 5 Tokyo 23 is finally making a retro return this Fall 2025. First dropped in 2011 to honor Jordan Tokyo 23 in Japan, this bold sneaker is back with all the flair fans remember and love.

This Air Jordan 5 features a standout yellow suede upper that’s impossible to ignore. Wolf Grey touches hit the tongue, side netting, and eyelets, adding balance to the vivid design. Black accents on the laces, heel, and shark teeth midsole bring the contrast. The embroidered Kanji logo on the side gives it a cultural boost sneakerheads go wild for.

Rumors suggest two versions of the Air Jordan 5 Tokyo 2025 may release—one featuring the classic Jumpman logo, and another with Nike Air branding, similar to the Undefeated Air Jordan 4 drop strategy. Whether that’s true or just sneaker myth, we know one thing: these Jordans are getting special packaging and will fly off shelves faster than a Tokyo bullet train.

Returning in OG form, the Jordan 5 Tokyo 2025 joins a growing lineup of heritage retros. Related models like the Air Jordan 5 Raging Bull and Air Jordan 5 Green Bean have also seen successful returns. The demand for retro Jordans just keeps growing.
