After checking out a range of light and bright colorways last week, like the Sail and the Medium Olive, the MVP 92 is now entering stealth mode with the Black Metallic Gold colorway. And even though this silhouette has only been on shelves for a few months, it’s already carving out a place as a fan favorite within the Jordan Brand community. Its mix of heritage design cues and modern performance updates has quickly won over both casual wearers and die-hard collectors.
For those who don’t know, the MVP 92 is essentially a takedown version of the Air Jordan 7. It bears a striking resemblance to Michael Jordan’s seventh signature sneaker – released during the 1992 season when MJ clinched his second championship ring – but also introduces contemporary details that set it apart.
Up top, the upper is crafted mostly from slick black suede, balanced with mesh panels along the sidewalls to keep things breathable during everyday wear. “Flight” is stitched across the tongue in a bold script, and additional padding around the ankle ensures long-lasting comfort and support.
Around the heel, a pull tab dipped in Metallic Gold adds a touch of luxury and shine, nodding to Jordan’s championship pedigree. Beneath it all, the sculpted midsole is fitted with Nike Air technology.
Retailing at $145, the Jordan MVP 92 Black Metallic Gold is set to release during Holiday 2025 at Nike and select retailers worldwide, both online and in-store. If you want a pair, make sure you download Sole Retriever's mobile app.
