Playoffs in April? No, that’s not a byproduct of the truncated NBA season, but rather of Jordan Brand’s decision to bless us with this Air Jordan XII retro. The ‘Playoff’ colorway on this particular silhouette ends up beautifully minimal, with black and white dominating and a tiny bit of true red (not varsity) hanging out around the edges. The packaging they’ll come in also features some neat little details, as the new matte black box bears the fingerprint of MJ himself (perhaps an added measure against counterfeits?). Hit the jump to get the full photos of the Air Jordan XII ‘Playoffs’ and let us know if you’ll be waiting in line for this retro release. Photos: AK
