These Kicks Brew Up a Tribute to Miami's Cafecito Culture

Miami’s very own SoleFly is brewing up a fresh collab with Jordan Brand that’s hotter than your morning coffee. Having previously reimagined classics like the Air Jordan 1, Air Jordan 8, and Air Jordan 10, SoleFly now takes on the Jordan 12 with a "sail and brown" colourway set to launch this weekend. Let’s spill the beans.

Slated for Holiday ’24, this release weaves vibrant storytelling into its design, resonating with both long-time collectors and avid sneaker enthusiasts. According to SoleFly, the colour palette is inspired by Miami’s Latino coffee culture, drawing influence from the interiors of local cafés.

Key branding details, like the SoleFly logo on the tongue, insole, and heel pull tab, blend seamlessly with striking design elements. The outsole features a geometric graphic, nodding to the iconic Cuban tiles that adorn Miami’s cafecito spots.

This limited edition AJ12 brings a sophisticated mix of textures. A cracked white leather upper gives the shoe a vintage, pre loved look, while smooth brown leather on the mudguard adds a creamy, luxurious texture (move over, faux reptile skin).

Metallic accents and co branded heel and sock liner details elevate the look, while the Phylon foam midsole, full length Zoom Air unit, and carbon fibre plate make sure this pair isn’t just about the aesthetics; it’s got the performance to back it up.

And don’t forget the herringbone traction pods, perfect for keeping you steady no matter where you’re stepping.

These kicks come with a burlap style dust bag; a nod to coffee bean sacks. The drop will also be accompanied by a limited apparel collection featuring "coffee stain" inspired graphics on tees, a camp shirt, and leather shorts.

Miami locals get the first pour, but don’t worry; online buyers can still grab a cup of this caffeinated collab. These sneakers are dropping on 6th December for £205.
