The '[Air Jordan 12 Retro](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phantom-colorway-1)' backpack is offered in two different color schemes. The [minimalist all-black edition](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-toe-version) is accented by gold details on the zipper which correspond favorably with the 'Jumpman' logo which appears on the front and on its strap. The other is brighter and shows a more elaborate contrast between materials used, with navy and light-blue hues. Both include Jordan's number 23, which is shown tastefully on the bottom of the bag. Made for style and comfort, the Air Jordan backpack has a padded exterior made from breathable mesh and plenty of spacious compartments within. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 35% | Activity: 30% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Sports](https://www.trendhunter.com/sports) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Sneaker-inspired Accessories:** Opportunity for companies to create other accessories inspired by popular sneaker designs. - **Anniversary Collections:** Opportunity for brands to create special editions or collections to celebrate milestone anniversaries. - **Functional Fashion:** Opportunity for companies to create fashionable products that also serve practical purposes. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion:** Innovations in sneaker-inspired accessories can disrupt the fashion industry by offering unique and collectible items. - **Sportswear:** Opportunity for sportswear brands to expand their product offerings by incorporating sneaker designs into accessories. - **Luggage and Backpacks:** The emergence of sneaker-inspired backpacks presents opportunities for innovation within the luggage and backpack industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sneaker-Centric Cargo Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collectors-duffle.md) - [Earbud-Inspired Backpack Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airpack-backpack.md) - [Luxe Creamy Retro Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phantom-colorway-1.md) - [Red-Accented Basketball Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/true-red-colorway.md) - [Richly Green-Toned Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jordan-retro-1-high.md) - [Stealthy Colorblocked Basketball Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flu-game-colorway.md) - [Oversized Earbud Backpacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airpack.md) - [Greyscale Leather Speckled Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fear-colorway-1.md) - [Monochromatic Hybrid Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-jordan-23-1.md)
