Air Jordan 12 Retro White/Red

This Saturday, December 19th, 2009, Jordan Brand will unleash the third installment of its major holiday releases in the form of the Air Jordan 12 Retro White/Red for $150.

If you recall, we have not seen this sneaker since it first released back in 1997 for $135. 12 years later and $15 more, this shoe returns to many sneaker lover’s excitement. The Air Jordan 12 has a rich history behind it to say the least. Michael Jordan won his fifth championship in this model. Also, the Air Jordan 12 was the first Jordan shoe to be part of the Nike sub brand in what we know today as the Jordan Brand collection. Is this a must-have for you tomorrow?

  • retroed air

  • jay

    i already got them fresh sneaker might cop me another pair

  • poscogrubb

    interesting: according to the Inflation Calculator, $135 in 1997 dollars is equivalent to $180 in 2008 dollars. So they cost “less” than the OG. Is the quality the same?

  • jumpoldman36

    these are and will be copped…!

  • gotjordans?

    it’s about time…!

  • dred

    I’ll definately be rockin these tom!! Yaahhh Mooonnn!!

  • luckyair78

  • Kicksallday

    Will these 12′s sell out quickly and are they in high demand since they are a general release? Any lines for these and the space jams? Thanks in advance for any info…

  • supremekickz

    hell yeah.. definite must have… 2 pairs for me and 3 pairs for my lil brother…

  • gotjordans?

    I am not sure Jordan Brand was smart releasing these so close to the release date of the Space Jams, they’re coming out too close to each other. I know most ppl are saving up for Space Jams and these will sit in stores. But maybe these will be copped if ppl miss the Space Jams, either way, the release dates are too close…

  • Messy718

    Well they okay I guess and true they are too close from the space jam release date Im buying the space jams i already have them on hold

  • Jra

    I was going back on fourth on these for a while cuz ma local shoe stop had em up a week ago so I just threw em on layaway and I’ll get em later..gota do Christmas shopping!! And jams!!..no rush but I did try em on and checked em out real good so I do recomend to everybody don’t sleep!!! Material ain’t too bad and they show great resemblence to ogs

  • bufflo716

  • Sneak-UH-Head

    These are a MUST HAVE!! Had mines since the 11th tho. Not wearing the till like Feb. or March. Copped all the 12′s this year!! Space Jams is the next pair for me and 2 pair for my son!!!!!!!!

  • cvegaz

  • izzobriszokqe

    Is the red tOO different? I see this purchase as a Package combined w/Space Jams

  • Allen Tatum

    My girl got them 4 me Thursday, and yes they r the real deal no wake ones. So i didnt need 2 want till they came out i got them early, and man they r kris.

  • LikeJordan45

    I’m so upset about the 12′s this year. Personally my holy grails are the Flu Games but the Nubuck RUINEDit for me and now I want the white/reds but because the drop is so close to the Space Jams and I have no real use for them color-wise (Got the white/red 8′s and 5′s already) I’m going to have to pass on my favorite Jordan model SMH. I hope Santa brings me OGs…

  • yall blown

    yall had these like 3 weeks ago..? hmm i had these since september.. holla at me b*t*hes!!!!!!!!!!

  • MR NIKE

    I HAD THE 12S SINCE DEC 7TH AND THE SPACE JAMS FOR ME AND MY GIRL SINCE THE 14TH I GOTTA SAY THEY ARE THE BEST QUALITY FOR JB IN A MIN ACTUALLY SURPRISED CUZ THEY HAVE BEEN REPPIN B.S FOR A WHILE NOW A DEF MUST COP…..JR’S

  • Retrosaurus Rex82

    i had these since like late october; they are such a thing of the past and i already have the black/red and the black/white jordan 6s and the doernbechers and did i mention i have two pairs of space jams

  • joR

    Still got my OG back in 97s upset this relese but yeah kno i got some balLin 12

  • staxx

    there nice gett em know cuz they will be gone next saturday after everybody doesn’t get there space jams

  • 23isback

    These are going to sit on shelves like every other jordan release this year. The brand is coming incorrect with the blood red and its entire marketing game.

  • gotjordans?

    you know staxx,

    I thought that. These 12s just came out too close to the Space Jams, and when ppl miss those, then these will be their next best thing… I guarantee it

  • gotjordans?

    to Retrosaurus Rex82,

    Would you care to let us know how you got your 6s this early, homie?
    Did you cop them from sites like vmv, marqueesole, uptempoair, etc.?
    Did you have to spend a lot bread to get them? Come on, share the knowledge, please…!

  • biggins

    To GotJordans?…

    I’d say Marquee Sole is your best bet…I purchased the Space Jams from there back in September. However, it’s kind of shady and I’m not sure if it’s worth the wait. I don’t even think Nike/JB can explain how Marquee is selling Authentic shoes…obviously someone who has managed to get them straight from the factory in Asia.

    You will have to spend about $150-$200 more if you want them early though.

    On these…I’ll be placing an order on Eastbay today…I never had the OG white/reds…so I’ll settle for the retro…I’m just glad these don’t have the cheap nubuck leather that the Flu Game retros do.

  • youngboi85

    Got mine a couple odf days ago and at 50 percent off! (Yes they are real!) Shout out to olympia!

  • db

    all the post said was “are these a must have for u” and u lames are braggin bout how long u had these. yes or no question u fools. by the way got mines in the mail wed.

  • C-Nash

    LAME LAME LAME….yall on here lyin about whatchu have and how long you had it..smh. even if you are tellin the truth, SO WHAT! Yall probably a buncha square, spoiled n*ggaz that kant hoop and have no life. 3 and four pairs of the same shoe is your business. Braggin about it like somebody kares is just lame. Half of yall blowin bread and over payin for kicks probably still live at home witchyo momz…or u gotta kuzin in Asia workin at the facktory!

  • Retrosaurus Rex82

    i got the black/white joints of marqueesole by pure luck because they sell out quick but i got em and the infra reds i copped off vmvinc.com—————–2010 is my last year for kix and im retiring to collecting guns AND USE EBAY BECAUSE THEY HAVE STUFF EARLY I GOT THOSE DOERNBECHERS IN AUGUST FOR ONLY 100 OVER RETAIL

  • Dhissss foo

    To C-Nash:
    haha thats hella true. that was the best comment i read on this article

  • Retrosaurus Rex82

    and marqueesole is a legit site——they are based in Hong Kong and they shipp pretty fast i got those black/white 6′s arrived at my house from hong kong to NC in about 5 days

  • gotjordans?

    My goodness, darn Retrosaurus82… you must rich paying so much for early shoes!

  • biggins

    I’m sure most people on here own around 43 pairs of Jordans (which were all had before anyone else), have pockets fat like J.Candy and can ball like Jason Kidd. Especially C-Nash.

  • http://nicekicks.com/members/droned/ Dronedix

    I just got these today and i must say it really depends on YOU if its a must have or not i just copped these so that i could wear a pair so i will break down for people who are unsure if they want to buy it
    Quality- The leather is very cheap no that good , and their was some glue near the edges etc stuff like that
    Comfort- The fit was good, and comfortable better than the cdp xii, I think
    Price- should be $125 lmao
    Overall the shoes didn’t wow me but JB stayed true to the OG didn’t change much like with the flugames very disappointed in those , if you got made a pretty penny this month ehh go cop them if not save up for dec.23 all the people paying more these retros to have them early you got money to blow fine but spend on OGs man stupid to pay 300 + on marquee sole when you can the OG
    once again a LONG ASS comment – drx

  • KingBoat

    Got ‘Em

  • greenmaker24

    wish i had money to cop

  • dmy

    i’m fighting a uphill battle financially . . . i’m glad i get an associate discount. only paid 112 after taxes. hopefully i’ll pull a three-peat and get the space jams with a discount too.

  • 90snikehead

    Got flu games and space jams Bought these today for my girl thou

  • supremekickz

  • jordan

    got mine today and i am very impressed by the quality and there was no glue showing on my sneakers at all,the spacejams are next

  • NIKEDEE

    Copped. They straight.

  • Allen Walker

    I remember getting these in highschool… I wore them during summer league even though our uni’s were purple and gold.

  • babymilokilo

    i had to get these today… i love the 12′s. but i got the retro iveron’s too IMO the shoe’s look kind of similar even though they dont look anything alike. i feel like i should have let the Iverson’s go as I ain’t ballin out of control and still plan on grabbing the Space Jam’s on Wednesday…

  • kobebestever

    WHEN I SEE THIS JORDAN 12 SHOE IN THIS COLOR… I JUST REMEMBER JORDAN GETTING HIS ASS CROSSED OVER BY IVERSON HAHA. BUT STILL A NICE SHOE

  • KICKS GALORE

    i honestly think the flu-games are iller but…….i still love this shoe. does anyone know if the original black and white twelves are coming back?

  • romeo
