Do you admit that the AJ12 playoff replica is a near-perfect shoe aside from the ¥1599 offer price?
There are many classic Air Jordans returning this year, and Joe 12's playoffs must count on one.
Since learning the news of the replica of this pair of shoes, it must have provoked some sentient shoe fans, a rush of blood rushed to the brain door, and after learning the price, it was like being splashed with cold water, instantly awake. Just like the "electric mother" of AJ4, it is regarded as a "sudden event", but it has become the biggest selling point of shoes.
Some people accept, some people detour, and some people wait and see the dynamics of the secondary market and wait for the best chance to start. Either way, everyone's intention is the same – love the Air Jordan 12 "Playoffs", a classic pair of highly anticipated boots.
When it comes to reproduction, the Air Jordan 12 has always been very cautious, which is why it will get strong feedback from the market once it is released. When we look at the list from 20 years ago to the present, in a unit of 5 years, the number of AJ12 offers can be seen. In addition to the 5 major colors released in 1997, it was not until 2000 that it was first reproduced, only 10 pairs were reproduced in total until 2004, only 5 models were reproduced from 2005 to 2009, and even no pair of AJ12 was released from 05 to 07, which can be regarded as "discontinued" today!
Now maybe five AJ12s of different colors are released in a year, and the AJ12 playoffs are in 2012, that is, 10 years ago, including the five years from 2010 to 2014, and Jordan only launched 7 double AJ12 in these 5 years.
But what is certain is that the Air Jordan 12, which is colored in the first year, has always been treated very strictly, such as the white and red color of the first year has not been reproduced once in more than 10 years.
The reason why this year's re-enactment of the playoffs Joe 12 is naturally its reason, not only this year is the 25th anniversary of AJ12, but also 10 years after the last re-enactment. The release was scheduled during this year's Cleveland All-Star Game, and it just so happened that AJ12's first playoff appearance was also on the 1997 Cleveland All-Star Weekend – Fate.
Michael Jordan has always had the habit of warming up for the black AJ of the playoffs during the All-Star Game, AJ3 black cement, AJ4 black and red, AJ5 black silver, AJ6 black infrared, AJ7 Raptors, AJ8 playoffs, these 6 pairs are all appearances in the All-Star main game. The AJ11 was an exception, with Columbia becoming the '96 All-Star Boots, which were again replaced by the playoff versions in '97 and '98.
At the 1997 All-Star Game, Jordan created the first "triple-double" performance in All-Star history, and it was supposed that such a milestone background should be MVP, but the actual situation was that the MVP vote was in progress at that time, and Hornets star Glenn Rice quickly won the hearts of the press corps with a performance that broke Chamberlain's Half-Time Scoring Record for Oxlade-Chamberlain. But in the end, after everyone saw the data sheet, they shook their heads to find that MJ was equally magical.
Although it failed to witness Michael Jordan win the All-Star MVP again, it could not hide the highlight of the AJ12 black and white playoffs, which was regarded by many as the "most beautiful Joe 12". Using the black and white contrast colors that we Chinese like, "panda", "yin and yang", "tai chi"... There are too many descriptions to tag on this shoe.
In particular, the AJ12's unique asymmetrical design on the inside and outside really has the style of Tai Chi. Inspired by design elements like women's heels, player straps, and the Japanese Sun Army Flag that we don't quite like to acknowledge, the AJ12 sets the AJ12 apart.
The word "TWO 3" also appears on the tongue of the shoe, two 3 is a sub-brand of the Air Jordan series, mainly to produce high-end clothing, such as suits, leather shoes, etc., the price is very high, but eventually disappeared from the market because of the high price. Nowadays, some of Air Jordan's Life Style series are actually taking the road of TWO 3, closer to the masses, launching more life-oriented products, not just sneakers, but the price is much lower than the TWO 3 at that time.
The shoe box is marked with "Quality inspired by the greatest player ever", which is also sublimated on the heel of the AJ12. MJ or LBJ? Who is the first in history? Air Jordan's shoe says it all.
The sole is subtly extended to the toe at the tip of the shoe, giving it the feeling of jumping out of the sky. By the way, this year's replica version has the same black color as in 1997, and the version 10 years ago was red, which means that the whole pair of shoes is almost originally carved according to the mold of the first year.
The difference is that its offer price has risen from the default 1399 to 1599, which makes it sound different, so back to the sneakers themselves, which is almost a perfect pair of shoes, isn't it?
