Nike Presents the Air Jordan 12 in a Flu Game Colorway

— February 22, 2025 — Fashion
Nike introduces a look at the latest tonal iteration of the Air Jordan 12 sneaker model with the launch of the Flu Game colorway palette. The hue is comprised of black and varsity red, which are applied to the silhouette in a color-blocking manner.

It is set to drop officially on March 1st and it boasts a stealthy black hue at the top half of the upper and red at the lower half. This is a nod to a look that first debuted back in 1997. The palette's relaunch brings a retro feeling as the black details are done in leather for a premium look and feel with the mudguard and sole unit in the bold hue.
