Air Jordan 12 “Rising Sun” Update

Air Jordan 12 "Rising Sun"

The date for the Air Jordan 12 “Rising Sun” has finally been confirmed! With all the hectic changing of release dates on the LeBron, Jordans and so on, Foot Locker has announced November 21 as the confirmed day for an official drop.

Rumors circulating the web imply that the Japanese military-inspired image on the insole led to international controversy and a redesign on that piece. As for an official explanation, nothing has been heard from Jordan Brand.

Now that we know when you’ll be able to get widely, are you going to head out on that Saturday in November and grab your own pair?

    I Know Why There Was A Recall. The Japanese Thought Michael Jordan Was Stepping On The Flag (The Insole Design). Its Was Something Like That

    I hear the delay in the U S is because of the insoles……..Asia edition did not have the Rising Sun insole…….at least that’s what I’ve read on a few websites.

  19. bobbylyte

    these were already out on Saturday at my local footlocker. the long side piece is actually white patent leather which throws it all off. i skipped on these.

  20. SOLEMATE 23

    GOT MINE 3 WEEKS AGO FROM SHOETRENDS.COM AND MY PREORDER ON THE GAME FLU ON MONDAY FROM THEM TOO!

  21. Mr Slate

    Already got them. Original insole and all. Money in da bank all ready like the 10s with the toe plate

  22. chrisv15

    …….o well flu game, white/red 12s and space jams all releasin right after this. Looks like i will pass on this after all. This past sautrday woulda been a definte cop but now with the date being so soon to the others this pair doesnt seem as good as the others

  23. Bkimble

    already got them! with the original soles!

  24. 5ivedawg

    I already got mine. and they got the original insole

  25. JzeusTx

    Oh but money… they will make

  26. §neaker

    ehh don’t know what i think of these… and i agree with JB space jams top these every day

  27. SomeSneakerGuy

    Already got them.

  28. JP

    what a mistake by JB to delay them, they are going to lose some sales on these. I for one with the flu games, space jams, and white/red XII’s releasing all within a months time i am not going to have the money for these as well. if they released saturday i would have bought them.

  29. icollectjordans

    only good to make a custom..
