I didnt want the all blacc ones because summertimes comin and who wants an all blacc shoe!! Now when these come out…Even tho im gone get ‘em…When the hell will I be able to wear ann all white sneaker in the middle of the winter…Sometimes I wonder what exactly do these brands be thinkin

  24. jayfay 07 says:

    i like these.. but dont quote me i think they will take the paten leather off these look like some early stage jordan’s… but until then nubuck and my 11/12 package will have to do

  25. 90snikehead says:

    got countdown and nubucks will def pass on this get black red pair end of year

  26. HondaEngineering says:

    @Exc!tement
    Man… you make more since then allot of people on here.
    I never thought about it, but your right; this doesn’t make any since this color way should have came out on the 30th of May, and the Black ones should be coming out it’s place.
    Hey! I’m still getting them…

  27. SneakerBox says:

  28. SPRADLEY8 says:

  33. Vante says:

    I absolutely LOVE THE 12′S
    but…….I might have to pass on these simply cuz
    I am NOT a fan of all white shoes

  34. Tyrone says:

    i agree with frank the preforations dont do it for me, i might cop, but nike has 2 other kicks i am waiting for in holiday season, dang, santa better bring an extra bag lol.

  35. Yo Momma is ugly & fat says:

    These are Dope and I am getting these btw I had a chance to get the black nubuck 12 but I passed on them.

  36. HR says:

    they look clean as ****. But i cant last long with all white shoes. But i still gotta roll with the Space Jams over ther 12s when it comes out the same month.

  37. Austin says:

    Nice. But not nice enough. I need 3 pairs of tb3’s and space jams. Sorry

  38. Peeeazy says:

  42. J.A,Y. says:

    THESE ARE NICE BUT CAN’T WAIT 4 THE BLACK/RED 12′S 2 COME OUT.

  43. d-$ says:

    these are fresh as sh**. Im def gonna cop those!!!

  44. His Airness says:

    These are too white.
    I like them, but I’d like to see them in person. As for the person who said that these should’ve come out this summer rather than in the fall, it makes perfect sense to me too!
    Good shoe, wrong season!

  45. His Airness says:

    At least it’s not a fusion!!! Jordan Brand is trying…! I’ll give them that!

  46. marco po says:

    at first i hated them because they was all white. i was telling my folks that jordan has lost his mind then i see they put more detail into the sneaker, wow ima pick up these, the white and red retro 12’s, and the black and red retro 12’s how ya like me now

  47. CW1LL says:

    I’d rather get sum fresh white air forces but there nice not that great cud do better

  48. His Airness says:

    If the side of the shoe were black, these could almost look like the playoffs 12s…!

  49. Mars Blackman says:

    The Joint is dumb ugly i was lookin forward to the till i saw the pics

  50. P.O.L.O says:

    I dnt like em but im sure somebody will buy them

  51. dj says:

    these are fugly.. sorry JB but you failed on the retro of a good shoe. the holes realllly kill it.

  52. DJ Aspect says:

    you guys that claim first are morons!! who cares?? you might as well say “i have no life and sit here on the net 24 hours a day just to say “first”. Idiots!!

  53. sneakerking86 says:

    The weakest wackest cw I have ever thanks jb for all yal effort to please the consumer lol

  54. 4srmyfav says:

    These are hot I’m gonna cop these 4 sure

  55. E`MONEY says:

    At first i was like they messin up a classic but these do clean up nicely.

  56. Justice says:

    soo now wee have all white 12z greatttttttt smh

  57. JBZEE says:

    with some black socks, maybe some black laces from another pair of 12s these will look nice on. I dont see what the fuss is all about. its not like its some crazy colorway of purple, yellow, lime, burnt orange, or teal. white/black/red…simple…gotta understand the theme of the shoe. But it shouldve came out in may…and nubuck in the fall. Dont care…all 12s are bought this yr.

  58. phrshkiddb(23) says:

    dammm these hoes are clean..
    betta beleive im gettin dese too

  61. 23ForLife says:

    I’m a sucker for patent so definitely gonna cop these and all the other XII and the Space Jams! 2009 is killing me with all the packs and retro’s!

  62. the proven youth says:

    cant wait
    but im aint ever walkin in dirt again

  63. TechNutt says:

    I dont know how I feel about these, yet. Initially I really liked (prob cuz I’m starved for more XIIs), but these prob will grow. i like the all white colorway and black back/bottoms.

  64. mysteriOusz1 says:

    THESE WOULD GET STEPPED ON TO THE MAXXXX ! IF YOU WERE TO WEAR THEM IN A CROWDED PLACE.

  65. james anderson says:

    ****** sick.

  66. LiquifiedDopeness says:

    i need some basketball shoes for home games this year….I guess these will do.

  67. Chaz says:

    Well if they would have put the “Rising sun” Graphic on the outside of the shoe then it would have looked worst. I like em but still wit get the Flu games over em.

  68. daddy says:
