When Michael Jordan won the NBA title against the Utah Jazz in 1997, he was wearing the Air Jordan 12. The colorway in question was eventually called the “Flu Game,” for very obvious reasons. Overall, the shoe has become one of the best in his entire library. Although it is very much underrated, there are still fans who go wild for this shoe. In fact, Jumpman has been directly responsible for the shoe’s recent upswing in popularity. This is due to the increase in colorways this sneaker has received.
Throughout 2023, the Air Jordan 12 is expected to be a big part of Jumpman’s plans. After all, why wouldn’t it be? The sneaker has proven to be a hot seller for the brand. Moreover, there are plenty of great retros that have yet to see the light of day. No one does nostalgia better than Jordan Brand and Nike. Having said that, sneakerheads have been expecting big things from the Jordan 12. Based on the teasers we have seen this year, that is exactly what fans will be getting. In fact, you can expect the “Cherry” Air Jordan 12 to make its grand return.
“Cherry” Air Jordan 12
This is one of those offerings that are to die for. Overall, it is a shoe that furthered the iconic white and red Chicago Bulls-inspired aesthetic. Firstly, this shoe is made up of a white leather upper. Secondly, we get red on the strip of textured material that goes from the side to the toe box. Additionally, the outsole here is red, while the inside of the sneaker is black. All of these elements come together nicely to create a sneaker that is definitely going to appeal to OGs.
Originally, this sneaker was pegged for a release date of November 25th. However, it is now being reported that fans of this shoe will only have to wait until October 28th. That said, nothing has been confirmed by the likes of Jordan Brand. Consequently, you can stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest news and updates from around the sneaker world.
