    Man… you make more since then allot of people on here.

    I never thought about it, but your right; this doesn't make any since this color way should have came out on the 30th of May, and the Black ones should be coming out it's place.

    Hey! I'm still getting them…

  44. These are too white.

    I like them, but I'd like to see them in person. As for the person who said that these should've come out this summer rather than in the fall, it makes perfect sense to me too!

    Good shoe, wrong season!

  46. at first i hated them because they was all white. i was telling my folks that jordan has lost his mind then i see they put more detail into the sneaker, wow ima pick up these, the white and red retro 12's, and the black and red retro 12's how ya like me now

  53. The weakest wackest cw I have ever thanks jb for all yal effort to please the consumer lol

  57. with some black socks, maybe some black laces from another pair of 12s these will look nice on. I dont see what the fuss is all about. its not like its some crazy colorway of purple, yellow, lime, burnt orange, or teal. white/black/red…simple…gotta understand the theme of the shoe. But it shouldve came out in may…and nubuck in the fall. Dont care…all 12s are bought this yr.

  60. Iunno i think these are kinda fresh…i already got my Nubucks and i will def cop these and the otha XIIs coming out! Word!

  61. I’m a sucker for patent so definitely gonna cop these and all the other XII and the Space Jams! 2009 is killing me with all the packs and retro’s!

    Reply

  63. I dont know how I feel about these, yet. Initially I really liked (prob cuz I'm starved for more XIIs), but these prob will grow. i like the all white colorway and black back/bottoms.

    Reply

  67. Well if they would have put the "Rising sun" Graphic on the outside of the shoe then it would have looked worst. I like em but still wit get the Flu games over em.
