Originally released during the 1996–1997 NBA season, the Air Jordan 12 was etched into sneaker history after Michael Jordan wore the Black/Varsity Red pair during the iconic "Flu Game" in Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals. The original model — the first Air Jordans to feature Zoom air — came in five unique colorways.
This Nike Air Jordan 12 Retro Low from 2004 is an ode to the OG white/black colorway worn by Jordan during the 1996–97 season. The most notable details include metallic gold eyelets and the carbon fiber shank plate underfoot — a nod to New York City’s iconic black and yellow taxis. Lastly, the shoe features Jumpman-branded lace-lock hardware, a Jordan-branded heel tab above a "23" at the heel and "Two Three" branding on the tongue.
