Exclusive: Air Jordan XII goes lifestyle in ’12.

Of all the iconic silhouettes in the Jordan back catalog, the Air Jordan XII would seem to be a style fitting for a casual/lifestyle based reinterpretation. The original Tinker Hatfield designed signature was partially inspired by a women’s dress shoe, after all.

Here’s a first look at the Air Jordan XII Clave, previewed in four Summer 2012 colorways:

- White/Taxi/Black
- Varsity Red/Stealth/White
- Black/Varsity Red/White
- Obsidian/University Blue/White

Air Jordan XII Clave recrafts the lines and prominent support rand of the original AJ XII model into a recut autoclave framework with simple chukka-inspired top and lacing system. Save for a black and red “Flu Game” styled colorway, all the notable hits from the original Jordan XII run have been transposed onto this new casual kick. Air Jordan XII Clave launches with a $110 price point next year.
