Jordan Brand has been celebrating the Air Jordan 12 silhouette in 2016. Two of the more popular Air Jordan 12 OG 2016 releases have been the “French Blue” and the recent released “Flu Game” Air Jordan 12.
The Air Jordan 12 “French Blue” made its retro return back on April 2nd. The shoe was originally released back in 2005, and returned in remastered form. Featuring premium tumbled leather uppers and French Blue leather overlay, the “French Blue” colorway came identical to the original release.
But the “Flu Game” Air Jordan 12 has more meaning behind it as it was the shoe that Michael Jordan wore on June 11, 1997 during Game 5 of the NBA Finals against the Utah Jazz. MJ was drained but determined, battered but not beaten due to the flu. The struggle was evident in every move, but His Airness never let it stop him, scoring 38 points with seven rebounds and five assists for a crucial 98-96 victory.
Nearly two decades later, the moment is as vivid as ever and honored with the recent return of the Air Jordan 12 in its truest form.
That story alone might have just sold you guys on which Air Jordan 12 OG colorway was better. But we’d still like to know which pair you felt was more of a must-cop?
