Dubbed the “Flu Games” due to MJ’s fierce 38-point game against the Utah Jazz during the 1997 NBA Finals despite battling the flu, these kicks aren’t the exact black and red XII’s that MJ wore, but more of a commemorative tribute pair of sneakers.  Replacing the black leather is a black suede which has a unique engraved design on the heel containing the year (97), a sick flu face, and the number of points scored (38).  The rest of the sneaker is a nice red leather.  Pics via Kixclusive
