Just yesterday Sneaker News provided you with detailed images of the Air Jordan 2012, and readers responded by making it one of the most discussed shoes on the Sneaker News comments corner. The yearly Air Jordan flagship is always a great topic to debate because of the trail-blazing legacy the Air Jordan series has left behind, but lackluster designs over the last few years (with the exception of the Air Jordan 2011) has turned a few loyalists away. The first ‘vibe’ you get when letting the AJ2012 sink in is one of ‘luxury’; featuring acutely placed perforations along the borders of the white leather panels, the Air Jordan 2012 captures that classic wing-tip shoe design, but of course, features a hefty amount of new-age tech like the Flywire-stabilized shell, the removable/interchangeable cushioning/bootie, and the new Flight Carbon spring plate. We’ve got a great look at the details of the shoe below, so take a good look and let us know what you think. via long-7.

Man not sure what to think yet. Most of the time they start to grow on me cuz the Year of the Dragon 2012 grew on me a lil. I guess I gotta see other colorways. But honestly I feel they coulda been better…

Are u kidding me! Jordan brand had plenty of time to come up with a good looking shoe. This is terrible! What’s sad is that Jordan him self approved of these terrible shoes!. Wing tips! Haha what a joke. Btw all of the d wade, melo, & cp3 shoes for the past few years are a joke! Also goes to show Jordan has no swag! & can’t even put together a good team the jb team or the bobcats.

I don't know why, but i kinda like em. they dont look like sig's though but they look like great hoopin shoes
December 16th, 2011 at 8:59 pm
maybe another colorway will impress…
December 16th, 2011 at 9:01 pm
any other colorways?
December 16th, 2011 at 9:05 pm
The inner sock is cool and the interchangeable insoles are not bad but the shoe sucks. Its like they sat around and said the people loved the Paternt Leather XI's so why not do a Wingtip 2012? Makes no sense.
December 16th, 2011 at 9:06 pm
Should have been the d wade shoe.
December 16th, 2011 at 9:09 pm
And since these r brought up heres where your quality goes to, actual shoes thats meant to do something in. Retros we just walk in or keep'em on ice so if u want quality get these
December 16th, 2011 at 9:12 pm
WTF….this a joke right!?!
December 16th, 2011 at 9:15 pm
Corny gimmick
December 16th, 2011 at 9:30 pm

December 16th, 2011 at 9:32 pm
I love my Jordan's but that's ugly
December 16th, 2011 at 9:38 pm
Fail
December 16th, 2011 at 9:53 pm
Very very bad
December 16th, 2011 at 10:01 pm
Are you serious ?! What the hell is this shit ?
December 16th, 2011 at 10:06 pm
Well JB, you can take the early pics down all you want. The fact remains that this shoe is terrible. Did you think the shoe was going to transform into some fire after a few months of people not seeing it?
December 16th, 2011 at 10:07 pm
horrendous.
the booty is better than the shoe.
December 16th, 2011 at 10:12 pm
The great thing about buyin the new pair of j's back in the day was that even if you wasn't using em to play ball you can still rock em on a everyday tip…now WHAT THE FUCK HAPPEN TO THAT??…I mean I understand that these are performance ball kicks but the flagship Jordan is supposed to have that extra flavor…needless to say very disappointed
December 16th, 2011 at 10:14 pm
no wonder JB is putting out so much retro heat next year…gott make up for the loss that these are gonna put on their books
December 16th, 2011 at 10:15 pm
JB is running out of idea.
December 16th, 2011 at 10:21 pm
A lot of people forget what Jordans are for, and that's for balling. This look like they were built with a purpose and that's balling. Def cop for my b-ball peps
December 16th, 2011 at 10:27 pm
look like theyll perform like a beast, but theyre still hideous
December 16th, 2011 at 11:04 pm
????????
December 16th, 2011 at 11:22 pm
UGLIER THAT THE JORDAN 2010!
December 16th, 2011 at 11:46 pm
These look like mutant church shoes lol
December 17th, 2011 at 12:09 am
This is totally a down grade from the 2011
December 17th, 2011 at 12:50 am
LMFAO WORD !!!!!
December 17th, 2011 at 1:33 am
ugly… midsole and the leather patching sucks big time…
December 17th, 2011 at 1:33 am
i think if they didnt have the toe cap they would look way better but to me they still look ok.i rather buy these than those ugly lebrons
December 17th, 2011 at 3:57 am
Can we see them in like a size 9.. I feel like the humongous size 13s they have here are throwing me off in terms of style
December 17th, 2011 at 5:11 am
They look like some weak ass jumpmans!
December 17th, 2011 at 5:13 am
Just like the kobe vii insoles but shittier
December 17th, 2011 at 5:46 am
its safe to say Jordan doesn't call the shots at all on his own line smh
December 17th, 2011 at 6:44 am
I guess the focus is selling retros…
December 17th, 2011 at 6:55 am
Corny
December 17th, 2011 at 6:56 am
these look amazing. can't wait for hoop
December 17th, 2011 at 6:58 am
Ha ha that fo kobe #24 jordan never failed
December 17th, 2011 at 7:00 am
I agree. They should be the new D Wade's and JB should redraw AJ2012.
December 17th, 2011 at 7:56 am
¿¿¿¿¿¿¿
December 17th, 2011 at 8:09 am
Why not have a "Future Sole" contest every year to design the Jordan's, I mean if the pros are gonna design shit like this than we need to open up the field.
December 17th, 2011 at 10:15 am
WTF!!!
December 17th, 2011 at 1:32 pm
WTF …UGLY!!!
December 17th, 2011 at 2:40 pm
Look like a they are a retard cousin of the melo line.
December 17th, 2011 at 3:08 pm
my guess is tinker didn't design theses and that's why they are wack!
December 17th, 2011 at 5:09 pm
It looks like they just slapped some random white leather all over aesthetically it looks like it plays no part in support or strength. Jb should have just made the whole shoe fly wire and called it a day these are wack
December 17th, 2011 at 7:35 pm
it says 8.5 on the insole in the last pic
December 18th, 2011 at 11:18 am
Shit look STupid as hell…BOOOOOOOO, get ready for the outlets!!
December 18th, 2011 at 11:40 am
there sig's foo. e.g. "2012"
December 18th, 2011 at 8:33 pm
My comment was deleted…?! Why is it Nike/JB is effectively ruling out people who wear orthotics with their new Jordans and Kobes with interchangeable inner soles?
December 18th, 2011 at 9:12 pm
I wish it was bro, I wish it was………..
*face palm and shaking my head*

December 19th, 2011 at 4:53 am

December 19th, 2011 at 5:23 am
Holy shit.
December 19th, 2011 at 12:38 pm
Dope technology as usual. UGLY design. I would not wear these if you gave them to me.
December 19th, 2011 at 8:25 pm
EASY COP!
2 Times
December 19th, 2011 at 10:53 pm
Melo has swag, cp3 has swag, d wade has swag. & each one of there kicks are straight #2 in the toilet bowl. & they know it.
December 20th, 2011 at 2:13 am
The bootie look better than the shoe. Them shits are ugly.
December 21st, 2011 at 11:21 pm

December 24th, 2011 at 1:28 am
