Jordan Brand has a penchant for reinventing classic models, either revisiting materials and details or even incorporating their designs into entirely new silhouettes (think Future or Horizon). In that context, the latest Air Jordan 12 is hardly a radical departure, and yet it’s utterly unlike any XII that came before it.
Eschewing the standard leather or nubuck, the Air Jordan 12 Black Nylon sports that eponymous material over the upper, affording the shoe a more casual, waterproof feel. Tonal scaly leather on the forefoot reconciles the look a bit with AJ12 tradition, and a white outsole delivers sharp contrast to that monochromatic upper.
Get your best look at the Air Jordan 12 Black Nylon below, and expect a release date sometime this fall. Further details as they develop.
