Official '16 JORDAN XII Black/Red FLU-GAME (NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING FAQS PG.1)

I leather on these shoes are beautiful on the 2003 pair. I remember I got them on release day (10/25/03) with the retail of $135. I had them for a week, but returned them back because I wanted some Nike ACG boots. I still regret that decision to this day! The thing was, back then, these were super easy to get and stayed on the shelves for a little while. I just remember being amazed by that leather, it was so soft and top notch! Those were comfortable shoes, also! I ended up getting the flu game 12's in 09, but I sold them because they were just tough to look at compared to the OG leather flu games.
 
@FDUB  I remember when they retro'd in 09 I was pumped until I got to FTL and seen the material it was made out of. I had them in hand & everything and decided to pass. I wanted, and to this day still want the OG but I should've copped them anyway. After seeing ppl wear them and how they looked on feet made me regret not copping.
 
we'll see how these come out. what they did t playoffs & obsidians was a tragedy. There's an 03 pair I'm eyeing on ebay may just cop those throw some gorilla glue on those babies & go :smokin

lol, i bought the 03 for $110 back then...sold them for $200 less than a year later for a PSP and then sold the PSP for the same amount. biggest mistake ever! because soon after that my OG pair's zoom blew out.

LOL! Aside from the color alone, I think in my opinion, the leather on these shoes is what sold me in 2003! When you open the box you can smell that genuine leather hitting your nose. I think these are the most comfortable Jordan's by far with that Zoom Air..
 
the banana shape is real on the xii. had to return my red/white xiis the next day it was that bad. and they ruined it with that tomato sauce red. it was like a brick red

Use barge cement instead.

size difference will make those look different as well. my sz 11s looks just fine. 

all of mine has this shape.
 
@EMkicks  what leather conditioner and glue did you use? They look amazing! I need to probably clean up my 04 Playoff 12s a little bit
