These are the Air JordanXII (12) “Flu Game” editions. This edition is to commemorate Michael Jordan’s unbelievable 38 points performance during the 1997 NBA Finals where he was battling the flu. His Airness was barely able to even walk on his own when the game was all said and done. The Black and Red kicks are set to drop sometime this November during the 2009 holiday season. This edition has a few differences from the original; the black upper is now nubuck instead of leather and the usual TWO 3 that runs along the tongue is replaced with ’97 (Sick Face image) 38′ to represent the year, flu & point total.
