The infamous Air Jordan 12 sneaker has been refashioned yet again. Following the Valentine's Day iteration that released in February, the newly designed sneaker features a monochromatic colorway atop a luxurious suede.
More and more colorways of the Air Jordan 12 seem to be rolling out of the Jordan house. While Public School's retro iteration gained a lot of buzz, the shoe's latest redesign is sure to accumulate the same amount of attention. Rendered by Dan Freebairn of Kickposters, the new Air Jordan 12 is a soft sneaker designed with a vibrant color. With a luxurious aesthetic in mind, Freebairn redesigned the popular basketball sneaker to feature suede and an all-over cobalt blue colorway.
The new Air Jordan 12 features the same build as all previously released colorways.
