I had all the original colorways but the white and red. But I just love the way they look on MJ and they’ve grown on me. Definitely getting them if they drop again.

The fadeaway Mike year.Where he hardly dunked the ball and rarely went inside.When asked he mentioned that players didn't give him the inside.I remember Johnny "Red" Kerr saying "we haven't seen one of those in a while" after he had a baseline slam at home against the Clippers.Luckily the next year he was back to Air Jordan with lots more inside moves and dunks.

The White/Red 12 what I like calling them is the Japan 12(look at their flag), my #1 favorite colorway of the 12 it's not even close, it's just the way the red sticks out from the white along with the hints of black. Laughing till this day, people were jumping all over the Space Jam 11 in 2009, knowing they will keep releasing 11's over and over and over and over. IMO, the Japan 12 look far better than the Space Jam 11. I prefer white sneakers over black ones, why? Because you can get the same look with any black sneaker.

Of course in MJ fashion he took it personally. He scored 45 points (including a buzzer beating half court shot).
