A Brief History Of The Air Jordan 12 “Taxi”
The Air Jordan 12 “Taxi” first appeared on Michael Jordan’s feet during the 1996-1997 season, one year after the legendary 72-win championship season. The silhouette is inspired by 19th-century boots as well as the Japanese flag; the stitch lines mimicking the “Rising Sun” motif commonly associated with the Eastern country. It features a full leather upper with a snakeskin-textured mudguard, carbon fiber plates, metallic upper eyelets, and a JORDAN strip at the heel. The “Taxi” nickname has less to do with actual cabs, but rather the “Taxi Yellow” shade that is seen on the bottoms of the shoes.
Since its original release, the Air Jordan 12 “Taxi” has returned to stores on several occasions. In 2008, it was part of the two-pack “Countdown Package”, followed by a standalone release later in 2013. To date, it’s been over twelve years since the last Taxi release.
