Back in elementary I used to draw the Jordan 11&12 and I actually had a drawing of the 12s this exact same color lol 25 years later they actually release
Man I envisioned these in '98 lol . I envisioned the whole catalog in Black/Blue form before they did it. I can't wait for them to do the Black/Blue 13's
Yeah, man. Most sizes still available from Nike online store in my region (Philippines). Grabbed a pair for retail with free shipping. Glad these weren't too hyped here that I could cop my size after a week.
The 12 was my first Jordan ever. However, I don't think they've ever gotten it "right" since the 1996 release. The newer pairs feel larger, the stitching doesn't run as deep, and the ankle feels more loose than the slimmer OG. Only thing I don't miss from the OG is where the lizard print didn't run flush with the midsole, which they've corrected ever since. I wonder if we'll ever get a remaster of the OG. Regards, your videos are so cool. Your knowledge is encyclopedic.
12s are my favourites. I doubled up on the Taxis and also own the Playoffs. The medial and lateral plastic tabs crumble with time but they are hella comfortable once broken in. Give us the Chicago/Cherry retros already 😭
Definitely can see atleast 3 of 12 Kentucky players hooping in these this yr. Jordan 12 designs: definitely Black leather upper w Yellow panels like the GP PE, Blk upper w Purple, Blk upper w Orange.
A good way to submit your ideal colorway is using nba 2k shoe creator thing. It has pretty much every shoe from every brand and you can customize them fully
nightwing, these are hard as hell! This is one of the better 12 releases in years for me. The Gym red 12 that everyone slept on last year was my last 12 purchase, these are so tempting! Thanks for the review, enjoy the weekend sir.
You and me both for the Black and Purple joints. Bibby, in my opinion, had just as much heat for the JB PEs as Ray did. I absolutely loved it when SAC picked him up so I can see the purple hit some of the Jordans out there.
This Black/Blue 12 is SICK!!!. Royal 1s were always my favorite. Glad to hear these are general release. UPDATE: Was able to cop these. 1000% Satisfied with purchased.
I used to have a pair of AJ 12s back in high school and it lasted me a good 2 years 2-3hours of out door game time daily, the sole was really stiff and I jumped 2-2.5inches higher than any other shoes I've tried.
These are an easy cop. So glad the lightbulb went off at JB and they realized they could do classic color blocking in the 1s or 12s and swap colors. They maintain the heritage with the blocking but create new legacies with the color swaps like the shattered backboards or extending the royal color way across silhouettes. So many possibilities opened up when they did that
This sneaker was my first basketball shoe when I played in 5th grade. Now they come out with this dope color way. I sold! This will always be my favorite Jordan
They are absolutely stunning, such a fantastic colourway, definitely a perfect Nightwing flavour. I know it sounds similar to other colourways but I’d love a black shoe with white where the blue is, no silver or gold, that would be 🔥 Can’t wait to find out what the ‘Beaverton’ thing is...
Jordan 12's are my favorites. They got the best colorways IMO and they are sooo comfortable on feet. Best Jordans! Jordans 6's are also one of the best IMO
I’d take the obsidian 12’s and make the white rand powder blue or that dark powder blue from the 9’s. A good alternative would be white 12’s with the dark powder blue rand.
I’m not the biggest blue shoe fan...with exceptions but those are beautiful!!! Dayum......it’s been a Nightwing type of week! To my knowledge/ recollection, the team 1s were before the pro quick...however I stand corrected. DUDE!!! You got to go to the DNA Lab? So happy for you and a smidge envious!! LOL. 💁🏽♂️✊🏽
I just bought the FIBA RETROS 12 WISH I HAD THE INCOME TO DOUBLE UP ON THEM AND ALSO GET THE BLACK/ROYALS. WEARTESTERS GOT ME INTO RETRO 12S AND 13S BEFORE I NEVER SAW MY SELF WEARING THEM.. THANKS FAM!
Knightwing lives!!! Man this colorway should have been one of the original color ways! Just like the obsidian 12! I still have mine 1997 and 2012s! Obsidian 12s were locked away in the same place you went but, in a vault for 15yrs!!! These should have been number 6 after the original 5
Jordan 12 olive suede and orange toe box with black bottom kind of like the undefeated Jordan 4 because I have never seen a Jordan 12 with orange on it
I made a Raven's 11 on the 2k shoe creator because I wanted to get my Baron 11's customized. They looked great especially since my favorite colors are black n purple
I'm a Nightwing fan too but don't forget another hero that wore blue he's the 1st reason I like blue, Leonardo but I gotta get these I been waiting on these since I 1st saw the leak back in December
12s are my favorite Jordan's of all time. They were easy to get via the 11s back then. I also thought about if they was on Nike ID. I'd like to see a green version, just cause green is my color. Like the Jabari PE or ray ray PE. And also, Jordan brand should come out with PE 12s or just PE shoes in the future.
Great video as always! These were love at first sight, and will definitely be had. Looking forward to more details about that Beaverton trip (XXXIVs? Zoom Air Jordan Is? Just a Spring 2020 hands-on? 👀) Always fun to be reminded of that DNA lab that they clearly don't quite use enough lol.
Nightwing was like: "do you think I am some kind of hooligan?! Of course you can't wear 12s with formal clothes! Everybody knows you either wear 1s or 3s! It's obvious!" Also nice save at the end from the orgasm commentary 😂
Umm theres just one problem your totally forgetting the best formal wear Jordans ever made, yeah know the original tuxedo J's... the concord 11's sporting a clean white upper + the patent leather has always made them a great match to paired together with formal wear... hence JB trying to capitalize on retro 11s being wore with suits by releasing the cap and gowns 11s last year. I've worn my cyber 3s to a couple weddings now but if I had a pair of concords I'd 100% wear them with a suit over any retro 1's or 3's.
Man my blue turned light blue ... bad shoes... my black leather turned grayish-black ... this shoe is not good to buy ... I got caught in the rain and it changed my whole shoe color... the colors isn’t the same ... is theirs a way to get my color back ?
& all my ideas for what colorway the 12s should come in would pretty much be simple. All of mines would be black & another bright color. Like maybe a club purple Like they had on the Barkleys. Or a teal like the San jose sharks. I think those would be pretty sweet for sure.
Honestly flu games are my favorite J's! Hands down these aren't as good but are sooooooooo 🔥! I hope they do a grey pair too from his baseball days ! 12s for the comfortable win! LMAO
I would make the bred 12 flips. Switch the black and red around, How sick would that look . Or how about some jordan 13's in the bred color blocking but blue insted with the 3m of course
Those are a very nice. I definitely need a blue pair. Also the Vindicate (Vin Baker's shoe) were great to play in and I thought they were the best out of those new styles that were introduced back then. The Trunner was the best to me back then.. The Baker's were more closely related to the 13 but they were dope!
12s are NOT true to size trust me!!! if you have a normal fit go down half a size because these fit big! I experienced this with the French blue 12s I got from StockX and I eventually lucked out on size swapping with a dude from snupps and they fit good. idk if Jordan Brand changed the fit on them since then but I’m just going off of my experience
Air Jordan 12 Nightwing.
These are way to nice.
Kiel Linatoc that’s actually funny
Game Royal is way better
Amari Aaron finally someone said it
Back in elementary I used to draw the Jordan 11&12 and I actually had a drawing of the 12s this exact same color lol 25 years later they actually release
Ced 214 lololol
Lol
No u didn’t
@@Noerko21pthey are most likely older than you because they said 25 YEARS so they probably did
@@JustAlwaysAChillGuy not exactly lmao this is 2 years old
Your passion/knowledge of Jordans and sneakers in general is unmatched. 👍🏻
The Royal colorway is my favorite on any Jordan model
Facts
suuwoop 🔴😂
frfr
What I like is that it doesn't have any white on it which makes it easier to keep and stay clean unlike the Fiba 12s.
Man I envisioned these in '98 lol . I envisioned the whole catalog in Black/Blue form before they did it. I can't wait for them to do the Black/Blue 13's
As a Magic Fan so did I. I actually created these in 2K
if they did a black and gold 13 in the same way they did the white n gold DMP 13 (melo 13’s don’t count) i’d go straight to the store
yea they need to make them 13s
ends15 so did I man!! Love black and blue, my fav!
U got ur wish, they did them in December 2020
I remember Jabari Parker wearing an white & green pair of 12's when he played in Milwaukee.
Best colorway of the 12 I've seen in a long time. It's so simple but damn it looks good on this shoe.
I need to find me a shorty that can be a sneaker head with me😂
Same
AJ 12 are still my fave Js. Nothing beats wearing a brand new pair of 12s feeling that stiff carbon fiber and the springiness of the full length zoom.
I love hooping in my 12's. comfort after breaking in is really good. Traction is decent, but the cusion is perfect for me.
Can’t believe these sat in some stores. When we look back at 2019 they might be my sleeper pick for the year
Nah bro they sold out everywhere
Fw_muneer FN really? Where you live?
Maybe people are just broke around that area 🤭
Yeah, man. Most sizes still available from Nike online store in my region (Philippines). Grabbed a pair for retail with free shipping. Glad these weren't too hyped here that I could cop my size after a week.
Idk why but the intros are always so funny. Keep up the good work man. 😁🔥🔥🔥

Give us the Chicago/Cherry retros already 😭
I would make a colorway on the 12s like the shadow 10s , I feel like that could be cool
Personally I would love to see a USN theme with the primary color being Navy and the accent color being gold/yellow.
Definitely can see atleast 3 of 12 Kentucky players hooping in these this yr.
Jordan 12 designs: definitely Black leather upper w Yellow panels like the GP PE, Blk upper w Purple, Blk upper w Orange.
I have the Jordan 12 Fibas and the white shows so brightly during the day and night

As much as I love the AJ1 retros, this is so refreshing. Super excited to cop!
You and me both for the Black and Purple joints. Bibby, in my opinion, had just as much heat for the JB PEs as Ray did. I absolutely loved it when SAC picked him up so I can see the purple hit some of the Jordans out there.
Black and Blue, the best color combo ever. Plus they match the Hellcat. Coppin.
White and green 12s with hits of royal 🔥🔥 throwback Mavs colors
This Black/Blue 12 is SICK!!!. Royal 1s were always my favorite. Glad to hear these are general release.
UPDATE: Was able to cop these. 1000% Satisfied with purchased.
I would put yellow where the blue is and white where the black is and all lil bits of red to a point where it can be an taxi 12 alternative
I used to have a pair of AJ 12s back in high school and it lasted me a good 2 years 2-3hours of out door game time daily, the sole was really stiff and I jumped 2-2.5inches higher than any other shoes I've tried.

Its always cool to learn some new things and find out that things might be diferent based on one decision.
This sneaker was my first basketball shoe when I played in 5th grade. Now they come out with this dope color way. I sold! This will always be my favorite Jordan

That may be the most beautiful basketball shoe I've ever seen. Just lovely, nothing but black and royal.
I’m only 18 but I’m always fascinated with the original Jordan’s and sketches and would’ve been so excited to go to that place with the achives🤩🤩
i'm a big fan, like your style , story telling, fun fact, info, evrything your good in this kind of craft lol
Nothing beats the OG French blue/white-UNC color way. It was literally the dream colorway for me.
12s are my favorite J, and I'm gonna watch this all the way through, but I seriously hate seeing Jordans in Duke colors.
I'd make the shoe white with a sunrise orange color with matching laces and then a gold pack with black and gold with black laces and gold tips
I’d take the obsidian 12’s and make the white rand powder blue or that dark powder blue from the 9’s. A good alternative would be white 12’s with the dark powder blue rand.
I'm definitely copping me a pair 😍🔥🔥🔥
Man, I would love a total purple and black Jordan 12
We need more purple Air Jordans. Period.
@@IdleMoo24 I loved the Jordan 1 Court Royals, but I struck out of course. I 100% agree with you
I’m not the biggest blue shoe fan...with exceptions but those are beautiful!!! Dayum......it’s been a Nightwing type of week!

I just bought the FIBA RETROS 12
WISH I HAD THE INCOME TO DOUBLE UP ON THEM AND ALSO GET THE BLACK/ROYALS. WEARTESTERS GOT ME INTO RETRO 12S AND 13S BEFORE I NEVER SAW MY SELF WEARING THEM.. THANKS FAM!
Nike / JB / MJ making the right call when narrowing it down from concept choices.
Really looking forward to hoop in these. Will those blue panel be durable enough for basketball? As always great review. Thanks.
Dope shoes! Shout out to Johnny Bravo
Knightwing lives!!! Man this colorway should have been one of the original color ways! Just like the obsidian 12! I still have mine 1997 and 2012s! Obsidian 12s were locked away in the same place you went but, in a vault for 15yrs!!! These should have been number 6 after the original 5
love, love, love blue Jordans.
I like that color I know you like that color to Nightwing's color and they are one of the most comfortable pair of Jordans I ever wore
Jordan 12 olive suede and orange toe box with black bottom kind of like the undefeated Jordan 4 because I have never seen a Jordan 12 with orange on it
Dope vids!! 👍👍👍 We need a all black SUEDE pair of the 12s! Maybe a Kaws edition...
Need these in my life! My dad had a pair of black and royal Jumpman Pros back in the day. These remind me of those. Exact same shade of blue too. 👌
Go down half a size for the 12s if you're narrowed footed. Unless you have long toes, ya who do will know
Dope review Nightwing! I originally had my mind set on not purchasing, but now my mind is 50/50 on these!
Double up for me 🔥🔥🔥 I wish this color scheme can be on the 11’s😳😳
Air Jordan’s 12 black and purple like u said and black and hunter green💜🖤💚😀😀😀
concord 12 , not the taxi, the concord 12 with the patent leather overlay
I would do a black leather upper with a green rand 🌲 since green is my favorite color
Exchange the blue for orange, keep the black. Or give us the taxi color-blocking exchange the black for green, too.
I made a Raven's 11 on the 2k shoe creator because I wanted to get my Baron 11's customized. They looked great especially since my favorite colors are black n purple
Can we get the Jordan 12 taxis color, please?
I'm a Nightwing fan too but don't forget another hero that wore blue he's the 1st reason I like blue, Leonardo but I gotta get these I been waiting on these since I 1st saw the leak back in December

Same bro im with chu ✊🏽
Credit card my nigga, we wiz kangzzz
Feel you on that bro
🙏🏾☘️🙏🏾☘️🙏🏾☘️🙏🏾
king_ryan_james fr I just bought for $200 at retail
Hey Chris, when is those Jordan 3 blue going to come out?? Im dying to get my hands of those. Im not a 12's fan but these are going in my collection.
I heard they were doing a reverse 2009, because of the nubuck upper and the leather mudguard, so they were doing bunch mudguard and leather upper
I didn’t want these at first but you deff made me change my mind lol still on a hunt for crisp cherrys too but the price tag kills me
Man my blue turned light blue ... bad shoes... my black leather turned grayish-black ... this shoe is not good to buy ... I got caught in the rain and it changed my whole shoe color... the colors isn’t the same ... is theirs a way to get my color back ?
Rin Rinn same bro my Jordan’s got water damage
Man I was ignoring these but thanks to you they back on my radar. Hope these sit so I can cop down the line, can't afford them now.
& all my ideas for what colorway the 12s should come in would pretty much be simple. All of mines would be black & another bright color. Like maybe a club purple Like they had on the Barkleys. Or a teal like the San jose sharks. I think those would be pretty sweet for sure.
Love the video as always. I would love see purple. But most of the cherry 12s. I didnt get them back in 97 so I want them so bad.
I was hooked the moment I saw them in the lineup. What’s a better fit; true size or a half size down?
nobody over at Jordan brand was clever enough to call these "blue games"
Blu Games
Honestly flu games are my favorite J's! Hands down these aren't as good but are sooooooooo 🔥! I hope they do a grey pair too from his baseball days ! 12s for the comfortable win! LMAO
Me: “ They looks so good together”
After a minute
Me: “Mrs. Wing wears blue while holing a AJ12 shoe, Oh my Glob!”
What about infrared 12s, or black cement 12s? There are so many possible colorways to think of.
They brought back the super OG box I hope they do the same for the Taxi 12
that box has been around for a few years with 12 retros, pretty dope.
Peter Woodaman ok last 12’s I bought was the taxi ‘s a few yrs ago and it didn’t come with the OG box
I would make a wolf grey but with black, and I have these the quality control is bad on my pair
I would make the bred 12 flips. Switch the black and red around, How sick would that look . Or how about some jordan 13's in the bred color blocking but blue insted with the 3m of course
Very cool to see the images inside the Nike lab of the concepts and OG pairs, I'm sure it must have been awesome to witness.
Why dont they do a grape or aqua colorway of all the kicks? I think that would be dope!
Those are a very nice. I definitely need a blue pair. Also the Vindicate (Vin Baker's shoe) were great to play in and I thought they were the best out of those new styles that were introduced back then. The Trunner was the best to me back then.. The Baker's were more closely related to the 13 but they were dope!
Best review I’ve seen on these
Nike Jordan 12s I would do Africa colors, green, yellow, and black. Or Chicago bears orange and Blue.
have the same pair, really enjoyed them they are my thursday friday sneaks at work :)
Bought these when they dropped, cleaned them once and the blue never looked the same....smh
‘So are you’ such a good ending 👍🏻
I would do something simple like a maroon 6 colorway. Cream upper with a maroon midsole.
12s are NOT true to size trust me!!! if you have a normal fit go down half a size because these fit big! I experienced this with the French blue 12s I got from StockX and I eventually lucked out on size swapping with a dude from snupps and they fit good. idk if Jordan Brand changed the fit on them since then but I’m just going off of my experience
I just want to ask, in your opinion which is better the Reverse taxi or Royal Blue. In terms of materials and performance?
Dangit! I was going to skip but the black leather is changing my mind....
How do you clean these !!!!!!
I love them in that color
Hope for shadow colorway next!
When these coming out
Them shoe not out yet CHILL. On Saturday they come out and i asked my parents and they said yes so I cant wait until saturday
Picking these up 2m. Hit on the footlocker app. These are 🔥 great for fall.
