Having just getting my first pair of Jordans last August/October, which was the Fire Red 4's, I've had my eyes on these since they were rumored to come out. These are a must have in my book, I'm even debating on the 11's but if it comes down to it I know which one I have to pick over the other.

Only differences I've noticed/heard between OG and CDP is the metal and plastic eyelets and the ankle cut is lower on the CDP than the OGs. Can't speak for quality of material though

OG 12s are more stiff, and have a higher cut on the ankle making them slightly uncomfortable for casual use. I perfer the '04 12s more then anything, great mix in between. CDP were great too just a lil flimsy compared to the other 2.

I have OGs and 03-04s, OGs win that battle on better materials/quality, but the retros are more comfortable.
I worked at FNL when the packs dropped, XIIs were terrible, they may have been durable and comfortable, but shape and leather wise...

So do the newer XIIs have mold more true to the OG or is the shape identical to the CDPs?

I thought the CDPs were on point in terms of quality and comfort, I just hated that pack since it was like getting two different size shoes. The XIs were stiff and tight so I had to size up which made the XIIs feel like boats. Sold em so I hope these taxis are good with the shape and quality.

I agree, same with the Chicago 13's, whoever named em Cherry 13's needs to be shot. Even bugs bunny 8's are chicago 8's (that name i can understand but yeh)

I always just called them the white/varsity red 13s. Oddly enough I call the 12s cherry 12s
