Air Jordan 12 Retro 'Reverse Flu Game' CT8013-602
The Air Jordan 12 Retro 'Reverse Flu Game' flips the script on one of the most iconic colorways in sneaker history. Inspired by Michael Jordan's legendary performance during Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals — famously known as the 'Flu Game' — this iteration inverts the original's color blocking for a bold new look.
While the original 'Flu Game' featured a black leather upper with a red mudguard, the 'Reverse Flu Game' swaps things around with a rich Varsity Red suede upper and a contrasting black pebbled leather mudguard. Black rope laces sit atop a red suede tongue, which features a black embroidered Jumpman logo and 'Two 3' branding beneath the laces — a nod to Jordan's iconic number.
Additional design highlights include a carbon fiber midfoot plate, dual traction pods on the black outsole, and a red Jumpman on the toe box. A must-have for collectors and Jordan Brand enthusiasts alike.
