Originally released during the 1996-1997 NBA season, the Air Jordan 12 was etched into sneaker history after Michael Jordan wore the Black/Varsity Red pair during the iconic “Flu Game” in Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals. The original model?the first Air Jordans to feature Zoom air?came in five unique colorways.
This model of Air Jordan 12 Retro “Player Samples” was released in 2009 for Gerald Wallace, then a member of the Charlotte Bobcats. The upper features navy tumbled leather with the Jordan 12?s signature stitch detailing. The mudguard, midsole and outer sole sport a white color, with a Jumpman overlay situated between them. Lastly, the shoe features Jumpman-branded lace-lock hardware, a Jordan-branded heel tab above a “23” at the heel and “Two Three” branding on the tongue.
Wallace, a former NBA All-Star and All-Defensive Team member, played in the NBA for 14 seasons spanning from 2001?2015.
