A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 5 Retro SP "Dusk": Review & On-Feet

A Ma Maniére and Jordan Brand close off 2023 with one final collab, this time a two-shoe Air Jordan 5 pack nicknamed "Dawn" and "Dusk". Today I'll be reviewing the "Dusk" pair, which is crafted using a black nubuck upper, with vintage detailing, and burgundy coloured accents. Check out my review of these 5s and let me know if you were happy with this pair (shipping delays notwithstanding).

I received this pair pretty quickly and I’m in Mexico city. It took 3 weeks tops. My box was flawless and no scuffing. Guess I was lucky.

[@mdedeoglu7918]

You and the Weartesters are my go to channels before I buy a sneaker. Whatever you say about sizing is true. Thank you!

[@theogpop]

Great review as always. I'm glad I got my pair. It's super clean

[@shakenbake1510]

Thanks for the review Sean. Copped both pairs. Should be here early next week. Can’t wait!

[@SeanGo]

hope it arrives soon 🔜 😂

[@VinG1213]

This pair took forever to come in opposed to Dawn pair. Both are staying in my collection and hopefully you are able to make a trade for your size. Great detailed review!

[@nebulosogl]

man, im in love with this shoe.

[@tinbane77]

Love the Dusk pair! Had to wait 3 weeks to get and mine had a few scuffs too but not horrible. I’m a size 14 and they are much more narrow than any other 5 that I own (borderline tight). But wow the slimmed down ankle and tongue make them look like they were built for speed lol.

[@TheMikeCharlton_]

I"m so glad they blacked out the 23 and the Nike Air. Love it

[@lamar2658]

I too had scuffs on my toebox for my pairs unfortunately. I do like these a lot tho and I’m glad I got them

[@danielg.1365]

Hey Sean, great review as always. Thanks!

[@SeanGo]

My pleasure!

[@doserog]

Mines took about 3-4 weeks to get delivered. My pair quality was great! I'm sorry to see your pair scuffed up.. My box was a little damaged but yours seemed pretty bad as well, I am just glad I finally got my pair in last wk, I have been hearing people not getting their pairs yet

[@N0zix420]

Love this pair got both and ended up selling the dawn. They felt cheap and i could tell they were going to crease bad. Thanks for the review.

[@kevinlenyatsa3648]

I would've loved to get this one but I settled in the gratitude 11s

[@wishfullythinking8938]

I try not to miss any 5 as long as it doesn’t have pink in the colorway. While I do prefer the Dawn these will be picked up after I get the Gortex 5

[@Yo_LMcFlyy84]

Received my released pair of the Dawn’s pretty quick but when they re-released an opportunity to get the Dawn pair again on Black Friday it took a while to get that pair it delivered on Dec. 8th but it did say 5-15 days on the order but both boxes were damaged unfortunately but loved the Dawn pair better than the Dusk but eventually I’ll get them too but was upset they didn’t use the embroidery on the 2 3 on the dusk pair like the Dawn and that AMM tag on the air bubble wasn’t necessary to me but still a great pair

[@xzaviertorres5355]

Ah yes, the shoe that hurt so many. Shipping delays, canceled orders as well as relaunching the shoes online. This shoe along with the Dawn V’s had everyone in a complete frenzy online. Just glad I got my pair within the original shipping time frame.

[@nerdbamarich2063]

Fantastic review Sean. 😎😎

[@SeanGo]

Thanks 👍

[@curtisjackson1795]

Great review/ I personally prefer the black pair 🔥🖤🫡👟👟

[@griffitography]

Totally agree that the Dawn pair is the better of the two. Kind of amazed that the Dusk is going for so much more.

[@SeanGo]

💯

[@jonv.2473]

Sean, big fan of the channel. I was told they used women’s tooling on the dawn pair which may change the fit of the sneaker slightly.

[@benduncan6256]

Sean, I really wish you would do a review of the Salomon ACS Pro. …I need your sizing advice.🙏

[@rngrover23]

They look good on foot but I’m with you I like the grey pair better

[@chelsonlee9400]

My pair also have scratches issue at front toe area, felt so sad when saw it.

[@jamielee4911]

superb

[@vinodvagadurgi414]

Hey Sean Do check out Beavis and butthead Puma 180 Maroon red out of three different colour way which are pretty basic I copped them they were a surprise this year I guess Fits true to size Would love to know your thoughts on those

[@mikehammer983]

Je connaissais pas 😭

[@Willmelendz]

Sheesh! I doubled up on this pair

[@99chrisjay]

I am a true sz 12. These dusks fit me fine and the dawn sz 13.5 fits me fine as well. I love the dark tones for the dusk pair. It fights the theme very well. I respectfully disagree love the a ma Maniere text on the air bubble. It’s not for everyone debut I think it adds a little something extra to the sneaker. Love the content keep going.

[@SeanGo]

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@TheUncannyOne]

Got mine on the 27th still haven’t worn them yet, clean shoe! I like them more than the Dawn ones, but I also wish the “23” “ the “Nike Air” would’ve been in burgundy.

[@kurryk6564]

Damn that woulda been fire

[@kurryk6564]

Especially that burgundy is their color I like it

[@darian4866]

Struck out on release but was able to trade for them

[@icysolez23]

Love this release, but the quality in control on the black nubuck was lackluster imo

[@tyrone8177]

[@414RobertoLovesShoes]

Love the Dawn . I got both pairs . One from A Ma and one from social status . A Ma pair came but the social status pair got stolen . They use FedEx who just leave your stuff sitting outside . Emailed them multiple times and when they finally answered like a month later they have nothing but excuses . Done with a Ma and st. Love the dusk but I’d prefer the dawn .

[@SeanGo]

that sucks, sorry to hear

[@ratburn2000]

i like these Dusk better, the Dawn looks like another pair of J5, these look standout and different with the cream laces

[@user-ih9ci4gz5g]

I went with the "Dawn's" They're the AMM that don't look like all previous AMM. They look like nothing the AJ5 has ever seen as far as colorway

[@SeanGo]

Agreed

[@NotInformedOfficial]

My Dawns just arrived 2 hours ago. Stylistically, Dawns look better. I think the Dusk colorway is just generally popular to guys just cause it's black and the maintenance factor comes in. but purely just of how the shoe looks, the dawns are way better. And yeah, the box were semi-trashed when they came in. Thanks AMM! Great review as always Sean

[@SeanGo]

agreed

[@NotInformedOfficial]

@@SeanGo yo sean, review the PowerPuff Girls dunks!

[@SeanGo]

@@NotInformedOfficial all L’s and i don’t like them enough to pay resale lol 😆

[@NotInformedOfficial]

@@SeanGo all Ls too. Was thinking of paying resale just for the bubbles one. Wanted your insight on that through a review but i guess i got my answer now 😂

[@trendthis364]

The AMM on the air bubbles is a nice touch tho

[@tommynguyen736]

I recieved both my pairs from AMM and the quality control are just trash. I had the same issue with my black pair as your review states.

[@SeanGo]

Lawddddd

[@davidu730531]

1:59 is the reason why that i am not into black sneaker no more, somehow the dust scratches is indescribable...

[@SeanGo]

[@thecartereffectfilms]

The resell prices on these are insane. Mannnn maybe one day

They’re cheap? I got mine size 11.5 for $290

[@TKoote]

that white a ma maniere on the air bubble is for me killer of this sneaker. loving the colorway, materials and details apart from that, but that ugly contrasting white font has no place on this pair imho

[@kurryk6564]

This is crazy I ordered the shirt that matches from amm on the Nov 24th and haven’t got a single response or anything , don’t know how long is too long

[@SeanGo]

damn… almost a month

[@internetsworst.]

my pair also came with a ton of white marks - has anyone found a way to prevent this? My friend told me that mink oil would essentially rehydrate them and prevent them from getting ashy, but i'm nervous to touch them with anything other than jason markk repel

[@internetsworst.]

also another thing i noticed - when i wear the shoe for the whole day, the "A" cage on the side gets some weird striping coloration that comes and goes whenever i take the shoe off, not sure if its from sweat and condensation or what, I thought i may have strained the plastic as it looked like that white color that plastic turns when u bend it, but shortly after taking the sneaker off they disappeared on their own

[@SeanGo]

that’s the weirdest thing…

[@forte718]

But where did you get that fire sweater.

[@SeanGo]

Kithmas last year!

[@kenjiii_]

Compared to the metallic 5s I just feel these lack contrast

[@patricethomas1087]

Question, do these run in women’s sizes or men’s sizes? I know the dawn are in women sizes and these are in men’s, is that true?

[@SeanGo]

I believe Men’s

[@patricethomas1087]

Thanks appreciate you!💯

[@humblejay9269]

I still havent’t received any updates on my order. I won a raffle pair. I have emailed social status about three times and no response. How long you think it should take ? Its been over a month.

[@marleymar1352]

Same.. Just got an email today after 4 weeks of waiting saying my order was cancelled. Smh…

[@humblejay9269]

Smh i got the same email saying the didnt have enough stock . Smh its crazy how they say you win the raffle and charge you then after a month say they dont have enough pairs.

[@Theycallmekenney]

my pair came in about 2 weeks i had no scuffs or anything.

[@SeanGo]

lucky

[@hamilton3971]

What kind of pants do u have on

[@SeanGo]

New Balance cargos

[@richardyung4990]

Sizing is def on the more snug side

[@mattbame1]

I have both pairs 10.5M and for some reason the cream laces on the dusk pair are sooooo much longer than the dawns. Super annoying

[@SeanGo]

that’s so annoying

[@Tej.p]

Won the dawn’s through their raffle. Never shipped been almost a month and then got a cancellation email few days ago saying not enough stock. I won the raffle before the release and no stock??😂

[@SeanGo]

whoa that sucks!!

[@TurtlEfrmdaManor]

I’m still waiting on tracking for my dusk pair

[@kurryk6564]

Man this is crazy I haven’t heard anything either. I got the shoes but order the shirts and haven’t heard anything , Nov 24

[@neftaliortiz8877]

Can you sell the shoe ? I’m 9.5

[@typic4744]

I went tru to size on both pairs and they both are too tight. I would go half size up

[@user-gt1eg5gy4]

I’ve heard someone else say that. You’ve confirmed it. Is it because of the toe box area right? @typic4744

Hey 👋

Honestly these are a little basic for me. They literally just came out with black 5s, with aged outsoles. Honestly hard to tell what 5 this is... Black shoes be like that
