This review solidified it for me.


Plus, you can tear the satin material to expose a whole 'nother skin, therefore, creating an utterly new fascia/colorway for this 2019 CNY 12



Playoff 12's were my first men sized jordan. Remember going to Niketown Seattle after class on that June 1996 afternoon.


Me and three other homies went to cop.


Shiit was glorious.




That said....


I'm gonna get lambasted for this but I like these CNY 12's moreso than the original playoff rendition it interpolates its colorway from.


So much I even doubled... good thing they both under US retail.


Stockx and Kickscrew has plenty.

Yooo I remember buying the originals back in the 90s at Copelands.

I might have to grab these since I'm going to China at the end of February.

Haven't copped Js in years.

They still hard to get?

What are the chances of grabbing a pair if I go on Nike.com to cop a pair right when it hits midnight on release date?

Oh dope... never been to fine china. Will bo peep it one day for sure. Just make sure you done brought some masks cuz their rendition of the ozone sheath is basically depleted with all that smog and polluciones.



But yea... as for the CNY 12's:


SNKRS with their low inventory/fake sellouts is some bullshiit. I actually haven't been fortunate on their hyper/quick strike releases for some months now. LOL.


Since they cum in a full size family run (indicator of mass production in mostest cases)… I want to say you should be fine.


Doubt they will reach the main Nike.com page, you may have to acquire the SNRKS app if you ain't got it already... if not, the footsites such as the likes of footlockers, eastbae or champs (cramps) sports should carry them.


If not, you can already cop for under retail on stockx or kickscrew (got my pair for 240, not bad when it will be 275 after tax for me if wait until release date).


My pair arrives this week so I'll post back shots for ya...




Btw, you want a good pair of Nike Jordan Air Michaels to buy, I highly suggest you allocate your funds to a pair of the Tinker Hatfield White Red 3's.


Aesthetically, they are a god-send (I love that pronounced, partially cut/constructed swoosh on the side, the NA on the back is always a win), but the funny thing is these shoes are just as, if not, cozier than most nike running shoes (more comfy than air max 270's and right up there with the element react juice 87's)


My assessment is that nike knows darned damned diddly well that the vast majority of homosapiens that wear retro Jordan shoes do so for casual purposes primarily, playa pimpin'.

And releases aren't at midnight any more. They are almost always 7 a.m. Pacific Stanley Time


If not, you can already cop for under retail on stockx or kickscrew (got my pair for 241 shipped, not bad when it will be 275 after tax for me if wait until release date).

And finally... my first pair of self lacing shoes.


As an early 80's baby who actually saw B2TF2 In theaters as an adolescent... this means a whole fukkin' lot to me.



Marty McFly is the reason why I grew up to be the shoe buff I am today.



And no ragrets… LOL



It's a beautiful hobby and my olivia wildest sneaker fantasies finally cummed true. BYAH!!!!!!

How u get them early and how much you drop?

How does the tear away material feel? Do you think it can easily come off from a scuff?

It's like a strong and sturdy ass rip stop, ballistic nylon composition. Won't even crease breh (I did elliptical last night for 40 minutes and its still immaculate).


I got them from Kickscrew for 255 shipped (ordered last week and took less than a week to arrive from overseas).




Shouldn't scuff easily (I actually prefer this material on these 12's opposed to leather because of that reason alone).



The material doesn't tear away per say... you literally have to use an exacto knife.



I'll keep mines as is (might fukk around and snip off a sector or two if I get bored, as I did double up... gives me the luxury to fondle with the design).



Best 12's in my fleet... hands down.

I got a pair of air max 97's from stockx that have developed a squishing noise from the air bubble recently. My understanding is that nike has a two year warranty policy which my shoes still fall under. What's the best route in pursuing a replacement with them?
