While some Air Jordans seem to get a retro every five years, the “French Blue” Air Jordan 12 has been passed over repeatedly. The last time this classic pair of Air Jordans released was all the way back in 2004, the year Kanye West released his debut album The College Dropout. Now, Jordan brand is bringing them back.
As part of Jordan’s “Remastered” series, these 12s will feature premium tumbled and pebble leather and a nearly exact replica of the original shoe’s shape. The shoe features a predominantly white upper, with the toe box panel in the shoe’s namesake “French Blue.” Subtle red accents appear on the heel, sole and insole for one of Jordan’s more balanced colorways.
The remastered “French Blue” Air Jordan 12 will retail for $190, and hits shelves later this month on March 26. Make sure you mark your calendar, because these will most definitely sell out.
