Nike Air Jordan 12

First releasing back in 1996 and being worn throughout Michael Jordan's '96/97 season, the Nike Air Jordan XII was one of the first shoes which saw Jordan Brand become its own subsidiary.

Once again legendary Tinker Hatfield was brought in to design the Air Jordan XII and once again he did an incredible job!

The main design inspiration of the Air Jordan XII seems to be Japan's Rising Sun motif. With a ray pattern coming from the centre of the shoe, it is a motif which is central in a lot of the iconic colorways of this shoe.

Being a basketball shoe the Nike Air Jordan XII was of course also packed with some of the best technology available. This release would see the use of Nike Zoom Air and would continue to make use of a carbon fibre plate under the sole arch.
