    Great review. Out of all the Jordan 12's there were definitely my favorite brings back so much memories when I had the original ones in 97. And I also remember reading an an article in the newspaper back in 1997 because I think the shoes with the first Jordans that one up in price from all the rest and it was kind of a big deal back then,but like I said great memories.

    I work at finishline and my store which is one of the largest in the northeast only received 50 pairs compared to the Oreo 5s which we got over 300 pairs. This was an incredibly limited release. It was even a ticketed release at a few local stores. To bad it wasn't produced in larger quantities.

  • @FrankW1029
    @FrankW1029 11 лет назад +1

    Definitely love mine and love the retro more than my OGs. The retro has the lateral snake skin part cut lower and tucked in more than the original which makes it a lot more supportive when you play in them. Just picked up a pair of nubucks too to go with the cherry and taxi. Not sure if i want to bite down on the gamma tmr tho.

    • @TheDudeAbides1998
      @TheDudeAbides1998 11 лет назад

      Nothing to do with a cherry! It doesn't say it on the shoe box or fit the history of the shoe. It does have the Japanese flag main colors on them. And before anyone goes and say well the rising sun all white 12 has that insole. To answer that, all the 12s have that design on LOL. The white and red 12 should be called Japan 12. Tinker made it to the point to match the bulls color way with the Japanese Flag. Buy what you like not what everyone else likes.

    • @FrankW1029
      @FrankW1029 11 лет назад

      Oh i definitely agree with you. I call them wht/red 12 personally. Just calling them cherrys for the sake of young ppl knows what im talking about. I had my OGs when i was in 8th grade. The wht/red and blk/red. Kept them till this past april when i moved and simply dont have storage for old and beat up shoes. Gave them to goodwill for others to enjoy.

    • @TheDudeAbides1998
      @TheDudeAbides1998 11 лет назад

      FrankW1029 young people with their childish name not knowing anything about the history of the shoe. Some guy try to explain to me saying oh they were always called cherries? I was 12 yrs. old when the OGs came out and they NEVER called them that. He tried to claim the all white 12s are called Japans because of the insoles and the special name for that release were called The Rising Sun. Funny these young people fail to realize all 12s have the rising sun flag design on them. If were playing by the name of the rules of nickname of the red on the box, its a varsity red. White and red is the colors on Japan's national flag. Thus is why they are Japan 12. I like it more because its less to say and fits perfectly. The Japan 12 were the J's that got me into J's. I remember MJ making George Karl pay for his comments. Another silly name is Bred? sounds like a sandwich. Either call them Playoffs or Black/red.

      @TheDudeAbides1998 11 лет назад

      FrankW1029 I was eventually able to get the Japan XI but my foot was already a 6 1/2 and they were a size 6 in youth. :( My pops decided oh wait, you might find them than when he did, I eventually stop wearing them but I was happy to have them. I remember just opening up that shoe box and the smell of them. Wow. My first Js was the Shadow 10s, I was in 6th grade and it only cost, $40. I wish the quality on 12s were close to the OGs, the shape of the shoe and the lizard print.

    The 12s aren't made of bad quality however, they take short cuts on the shoe, just the shape of the overrall shoe isn' t the same. ILike the lizard print suppose to arch up more near the jumpman tab. If you seen a GS/Youth pair,thats how the shape of the lizard print USED to look like. Now it just goes straight across for the mens size.

      EmperorJBO Theyre roughly the same now but I played in the red pair a ton so theyre broken in. I remember the red ones being a lot stiffer from the get go. But the black texture overlays on the taxis are pretty darn stiff. More so than the reds were.

      Kicks On Court That is crazy. And I thought the Japan12 lizard print was already damn thin. I couldn't imagine it being any thinner. And you say the Japan 12(not cherry)lol fit differently than the Taxi 12 from this year?
