Air Jordan 12 Retro ‘Playoffs’ – New Photos
January 18th, 2012 by John K. | 56 comments

Michael will tell you that there certainly is no place like ‘Home’. During the 1997 NBA Playoffs, Michael Jordan wore this colorway of the Air Jordan XII during the ‘Home’ games, and it only took him two games for Michael to get settled in – by dropping a double-nickel against the Washington Bullets (now Wizards). His Game 2 performance in the 1st round of the ’97 Playoffs is one of the most overlooked performances of his career, but youngsters Chris Webber, Juwan Howard, and Calbert Cheaney probably remember that game as well as any other. The Air Jordan XII ‘Playoffs’ has already been confirmed for an April 2012 release, which is rather fitting because the Game 2 double-nickel happened on April 27th, 1997. We’ve got a few new angles for you below, so take a look and let us know if these are a must-have for you. via SH.

God damn... IVs in February, now these in April... my wallet is flat.
My favorite XII's :] !
yesss
absolute must cop
Will be copped.
like i said before i dont like the 12's but these are growing in me.....the good thing these come out a day after my bday.............
*drooling
Amazing sneaker, I can't seem to explain why i love these so much but i do, lots to add to my collection!
I wore my BlackFlip III's today and I thought I was the Sh*t. Cant wait to get these so I can be breakin necks!
CTFU smfh
i love the 12s, must cop!!!
These look greeat! the XII is the only model impervious to jordan brand butchering, besides the plastic laceloops they are still the best compared the the rest of the garbage thats been out.
all i know is that the coulumbia 11's are gonna be mine....
Columbia 11s are one of the worst 11s very overrated....I would rather see a higher quality bred get released the countdown ones weren't the highest quality
Columbias are beautiful ! Whoa ! So simple but so dope.
Nice too nice looking better and better. The 12's for some reason to me have the best foot cushion, its soft and I feel the air bag
The 19s 20s and 2010 all had better cushioning.
18's also, evolution of nike, new tech, mikes feet were worn down...
Definately doublin up on these since i didnt double up on playoff 13s !
Those look really close to the og playoffs.... instacopp
Nice kicks.
CracKKKKKKKKKKK!
nice
DAMN I LOVE THESE, these are just like my females white and black and sometimes even mixed XD. # water tower swagg gang
One of my favorite 12s :)
...always liked this model for its boot-like design.Never owned a pair,but they look supportive.
great ankle support with these. its up there in terms of support with the 17s and 22s but I would still put the 17 and 22s ahead of them for support.
Copped... Are the taxis gonna drop this year too??
yea somewhere in late summer / early fall
Taxis all the way can't wait
I mean what really needs to be said about these! I was 9 when they came out as og's (had em) 17 when they retroed (had em) And I'll be 24 when I get my hands on these 1st or 2nd best XII IMO.
Cool story bro
I was in 4th grade when these came out, I didn't have the playoffs but I did have the taxis. Still have them too lol.
Finally Pics!!! They Look So Nice *Tear* Its Been So Long!!!
Dope shoe
whether the hypebeast or hipsters like them or not, these shoes are a must have for SNEAKERHEADS all over
One day in April, a man will make a decision, Playoffs or Obsidian, only one can be purchased.................................
Obsidian 12s releasing In June right?
Yeah lol but I gotta figure out which one I want more with all the heat coming out from not just JB, but Nike period I'm limiting myself to one or the other.
