It’s no secret that many Air Jordan fanatics are less than pleased with the changes that Jordan Brand has made to some recent and upcoming Retro releases. Whether it be the alternate materials or colors that have appeared on some Jordan classics, lately many sneakerheads have been left feeling unfulfilled by the subtle changes. Luckily for everybody though, the White/Varsity Red edition of the Air Jordan XII seems to have undergone little to no transformation from its original form. The colors and materials appear to be spot-on, leaving all those Jordan purists with not much to complain about. If you’re still not sure and need to see for yourself, check out these side by side comparison pics of the OG 1996 version alongside the new Retro edition for further analysis. If you’re satisfied with the results, be aware that the Retros will officially be hitting stores this Saturday, December 19th, just in time to bring you some hearty Christmas joy. Via Kenlu.
