HOW GOOD ARE THE JORDAN 12 PLAYOFF SNEAKERS?! (Early In Hand & On Feet Review)

[@nbkrs9d]

These were always my favorite. These and the Bred 13s were the two shoes I could never get my hands on as a kid. The time is now! 😆

[@fredo2x625]

No taxis?

[@tylogrant]

The one that started it all for me. I remember waking up at 5am before school and saw these on KZbin back in 2012. Told my pops I wanted to get them, and he was shocked because it was early as hell and out of nowhere. Anyway, we didn’t have the money for them so I just looked ahead, saved, and ended up getting the Obsidian’s that released a month or two later, and I beat them joints to the ground. Glad I can say that I hit on SNKRS today and finally got ‘em. Crazy how times have changed!

[@AM-uk7jv]

Playoff 12s are a magical sneaker. I'm reminded of back in the day when I see these. Took a W on these today.

[@Lurkartiist]

The beautiful thing is my “back in the day” was the last release 2012. I was in HS, 11th grade and wanted em so bad . Two different eras for us probably, same love for the sneaker 🔥

[@cactusjack2264]

Crazy to think the last time these dropped was a DECADE ago, even crazier is the fact that 2012 was that long ago 🤯

I agree with you. 10 out of 10. One of my favorite sneakers of any brand of all time. I can still remember the first time I saw these when the originals came out back in middle school. I have loved them ever since.

[@sterlonb.digital777]

Oh the memories! Bought these back in 2003 - 2004! The good ol days! 10/10

[@Anthonycheesman2024]

I had these as a kid so much nostalgia .

[@shoegameloco3509]

Got them in hand and compared the ‘22 pair to the ‘12 pair and there’s a few differences. 2012 “Jordan” on the heel tab is red while the 2022 is white, 2012 Jumpman on the outsole is red while the 2022 is black, different pattern on the bottom and the eyelets are silver on the ‘12 while the ‘22 has a hint of bronze. Both are still good pairs

[@BenTabafunda]

Perfect thanks for the comparison!

[@Ejay96]

@@BenTabafunda the 2022 is almost identical to the 2004 pair so its more original.

[@separatepeace2432]

The 12 is just so classy looking, and they’re so comfortable. They look great on the foot also.

[@starbwoychris9483]

Still one of my favorite Jordan reviews by you. I still have a dead stock pair and one that I wear every now, and then. Such a beautiful and comfortable sneaker.

[@mrodnumero30]

Hoping for a retro on the Playoff 13s. They were the 1st Jordans I ever bought and til this day still my favorite all time.

[@tylongkicks8821]

Same

[@gabecervantes7703]

I've noticed that alot of people's first pair ends up being their favorite all time. I think its pretty cool. My first pair were "hand me downs" (parents would never pay for Jordans lol) cool grey 11s. They were worn in by the time I got them but I didn't care one bit I still loved them.

[@glennfernandez8978]

Yup these were my first pair i bought with my hard earned money back in 04 and my favorite. It’s weird I get all nostalgic over a pair of sneakers.

These random KZbin recommendations of past Jordan releases reminds me I need to wear my shoes..A year later mine haven’t even left the box

[@Sean360Lennox]

I had these as a kid… and loved ‘em… the OGs were my favorite. I had them in like 3rd grade I think yeah. But the eyelets felt more metal as a kid. I loved this color way.

These release tomorrow here in Asia. Glad I got a W on these! Finally getting these as an adult, only staring at these as a kid from the shop window!

[@jaquanwalser2824]

I literally bought my pair earlier today I love em ! 🔥🔥🔥

[@stevelambert3418]

Every time I see or hear about this shoe I automatically think about Michael's shot at the buzzer in the finals against Utah. Not the last shot in 98 but the year before at home. It's so great to see that after 25 years since he wore these,their still iconic. All we need now is the cherries.

[@83nation79]

That was in game 1 of the finals in 97 I believe he hit it on Byron russel lol

When jordan wore these in the 1997 playoffs with the white bulls home jerseys and black sox, it was a wrap. 16 years old working at Mall of America. Cashed my paycheck at lunch time and bought my first air Jordans. If you know you know.

[@Andrew77MUFC]

I really hope to hit on the Jordan 12 Playoffs next month , literally my all time favorite Jordan and all time favorite sneaker. The original releases of the Jordan 11s and 12s made me fall in love with Jordans & sneakers in general and turned me into a sneakerhead , the 12 Playoffs especially. The 12 Playoffs are grails for me , always in my rotation and a must cop. I am taking L's left and right lately but desperate to hit on these. I have two pairs of the 2012 Playoff 12s , one worn to death and the other rarely taken out of the box but are starting to yellow in a few spots ; so really hope to cop one or ideally two pairs of these for a refresh. Just love everything about the Jordan 12s - the silhouette , all the interesting hits and details , overall style ; the Playoffs in particular. The 12s are a super creative and unique sneaker imo , very underrated in that respect.
