Air Jordan 12 Retro "Playoff" (2022): Review & On-Feet
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 09. 2024
- Dropping tomorrow in Europe and Canada is the much anticipated Air Jordan 12 in the original "Playoff" colourway. This is special to me as the OGs from 1997 were my first pair of Air Jordans I ever owned, and I'm so happy to come full circle with this retro release. Check out my review to get an early look and let me know if you are planning on going for these!

It is probably going to be the most important shoe that I purchased this year. Same elementary school memories... but during that time I never had the chance to buy any sneakers because we were broke. And only saw these beautifully on my classmates' feet. When I discovered that they were THE Air Jordans of the great Michael Jordan, my sneaker enthusiasm started from there. I still could remember that feeling of jealousy, but it fueled me to work hard throughout life. Long story short, I finally got my own pair today from the store. And nothing is sweeter than rewarding yourself with all that hardwork. Thanks for reviewing these Sean.
Thx for sharing ur story!!! 🤝
Same here
Me 3 man. Never owned Jordan's i want this pair. Most of my school buddies got jacked for these shoes
Been watching your reviews for years. The quality content always keeps me coming back. Keep up the amazing work.
Thanks James!
CAN CONFIRM! Go HALF a size down on these. They run on the long side and leather on them stretch over time for wide feet folk.
These released this past Saturday here in Chile, I’m currently on holiday and we were that day in a place with no signal or internet. Luckily we went to another area and I got online to see if there were any pairs left and to my surprise they had full size run available. I ordered my pair and I will pick it up when I return home next week. This is my favorite pair of 12 and I always dreamed on having a pair of these back in the day when MJ wore them on court. Greetings Sean !
I love the Jordan 1's and 11's but the 12's are a must have as well. Being a og at 51 I was fortunate enough to cop all the original Jordan 12 colorways back in the day. Glad I was able to cop a new pair on the sneakers app. Great video and review!😎👍
I had some OGs of these when I was 7 years old. Time to get these retros on my feet
Found some beat ones on eBay! Time to restore!
U part of the reason I’m more selective on what I buy for my personal ds collection and what I buy for the weekly rotation thank u brother on the info and reviews
Thx for tuning in man 💪
Mom bought these at my first Jordan’s… still holds a lot of sentimental value.. got 3
Does the carbon fiber shank plate look darker on these than the OGs? Seems like it to me …
I have to stop watching reviews on this shoe. I told myself I was passing on this release. Lol. The more I see the shoe, the more I’m leaning towards trying my hand at a pair.
Space jam 11’s and Playoff 12’s my two favorite J’s of all time. Hate how these yellow pretty badly tho.
Do they yellow with the aging process cause if so I’ll pass I have some sneakers from yrs ago still holding up hate to buy these and can’t get my money’s worth
@@melljones8876 they aged mainly cause I wore em and didn’t clean it (whos really got time to do that every wear lol), I don’t beat my shoes up either tho. I do have a ds pair and those have minimal yellowing so I’d say it’d take 6-7 years before it showed any signs of yellowing
@@ryanl7030 alright I appreciate that was a little nervous 😅 about buying but I’m good now thanks again will be copping
@@melljones8876 they get yellow regardless had every release the heal runs down quick too
This is my first W of the year! 👏🏻
Last year, my only W was the Royalty. 12s love me! 😊
Same
@@BboyEMC 🍻 Glad I’m not the only one. 😊
@@eduardsondeguzman9421 just to clarify. This is my first ever W on SNKRS app
@@BboyEMC Cool! Mine was in a raffle in Jordan Manila. I have never tried in SNKRS. Congrats to us!
@@eduardsondeguzman9421 ow you mean Park Access? Congrats brother!
The retro 12s is the most comfortable shoe I've ever owned, despite being a bit clunky, but they look great on feet. 10/10 sneaker for me.
1. Playoffs
2. Bred/ "Flu Game"
3. Obsidian
4. "Cherry" 🍒
5. Taxi 🚕
Honestly all the OG colours are so fire hahaha, can't go wrong with any order
@@SeanGo True Indeed
Waited for your review, Sean! Keep it up! Glad I'm getting my pair next week!
Great review as always, Sean! Thanks! 🙌🏻
Excellent review of the product, once again. Thank you Mr. Go
💪💪💪
Just got mine today and I'm loving it thus far...
Classic. Simple. Jordan 12. OGs for the OGs in the game.
I wonder why they came out in CA but not the USA yet. Great review my dude, congrats on the seed, I was very happy for you when I heard the news. This is a definite must cop for me, I've been waiting for these for a while.
Thx man!! You guys will get yours soon 🤣🤝
They haven't come out in Canada
Playoff - Home
Starting with AJ12, MJ went home, and away playoff versions in his last 2 seasons.
Trully beautiful colorway of Jordan 12s, congrats.
I Still Have Mine From 2004
Damn dude, that's one killer on feet. Always lovin your review. 🙌🏻
Thanks!!
So this was my first pair of Jordan’s when I was high school. I always been trying to get it back since. Finally got my hands on it for This release in 2022 got 2 pairs lol. Today I tried it on cause I didn’t want to wear it because I waited so long to get it back lol.
Im not sure if needs to break in or what but from what I remembered I feel like the ones I got in 04 I believe was way more comfortable. I feel like Jordan quality been dropping in past years.
Growing up I don’t recall any imperfections. But in past years I’ve been noticing imperfections and quality issues do y’all think the same?
This might be the best retro 12 CW. Dope review bro.
Thanks man 🤝
I appreciate your reviews!! 🔥🔥
Thank you for watching!!
awesome vid!!! definite a double up...Classic shoe!!! Keep up the good work!
Got mine on the realesed date...and loving it..super OG..
My favorite OG 12s in order. Bred, Cherry's, Playoffs.
Son. This was the first pair of my current sneaker head journey in 2004 These the diamond turf 2 deons.....it was all she wrote from then
Been slacking on Jordan lately I been more into NB asics saucony. Need to do some Jordan pick up! Lol good thing sean keep it up brother
Great pair, thanks for the review
🤝
Great review and on feet. Thank you so much!
just hit on snkrs mexico minutes ago, glad i cop and also i remember had this when was a teenager
Good morning W - nice review and sharing your memory keep it up
Thanks!!
Dope review sean
Good review I shall subscribe. And you rocked them sick with those joggers type pants on. Gonna do the same with some essentials sweat pants joggers I ordered from Jerry Lorenzo last release.
The first I saw the Taxis!!!!
They're the reason for me as well!!!😊
I've had these in every time it was released..... these are my favorite pair
Listen to the man, Half sz down on 12s yall
One if my favorite shoes ever! I still have my 2012 pair but they are yellowing. Must cop! Great review man just subbed 👊🏾
Welcome to the channel 💪
Hopefully these don't yellow
The GOATest GOAT of all the GOAT Jordans imo
grabbed these this morning from footlocker!
I got my low cut one and can’t wait for the high top one!
5:10 . Seems more like a air sole unit. They do the squeaky shit after a while. Been wanting those folks at Nike to put a true zoom air in all the Jordan’s since they claimed to remaster them. Imagine Jordan 4’s with zoom air in the forefoot…
almost forgot you review non new balance shoes lol
Lmfaoooo
Dope review as always..glad to have my first ever win with SNKRS 😅😂 totally unexpected after all the countless L’s
Wtf these ain’t even out yet on SNKRS
@@thenotoriousjoey9956 they release early in Asia
Sean, great review. These are definitely a grail for me. Wanted these since high school.
ID on pants?
Jordan Engineered trackpants!
@@SeanGo thank you
Your b-rolls always on point bro
Thx 🙏
I dont have a pair of 12s yet. Width wise what Jordans do they fit like?
Didn't see your sizing suggestion in this video. First video I've watched from you without sizing info. I know most Jordan's run TTS. But it was surprising to see a video from you without mentioning it. Unless I missed it somehow?
It’s in there man, you missed it 🤣
@@SeanGo I knew it!🤦♂️
Just didn't want to rewatch it to find out hahaha. Love the reviews though. 👌
how do they fit? i'm normally 8.5 in air max's ... my aj12 playoff lows feel like the 8.5 are a size small????...
Sitting here. Still thinking whether to cop
I thought this was the all star color way.
Both
nothing fancy about the 2022 release.. the leather won't wow you.. JB raised the price way too high. . over 320CAD . JB is smart.. raised the price and give u an og retro GR. Would u double up?
Just one is good for me I think
True 👍🙏👌
And Japan. Just got them a few hours ago!
Nice!!!
Really like review in the video and the pant you rock with the 12, whats the brand of the pant??
They’re Nike Sportswear trackpants from a few years ago
@@SeanGo really appreciate for the reply
I hit on End. Raffle for the first time. Cannot wait to get these on feet
Congrats!
A must cop for me
US Price is $210 Not $200 🙁
Damn
Dope! Can’t wait to get a pair or two..😆😎✌🏾
Great review as always Sean
Quick question,
How do these fit in comparison to the Royalty 12s?
I got a size 10 in the royalty’s and while I feel a bit of extra room length wise, I actually feel like it’s rather snug width wise. I’m hoping as I wear them more they might break in and loosen a bit width wise but I’m wondering if the playoffs are the same story?
Fits the same as Royalty in my opinion
If this helps im a size 12 on most Jordan retros but on the Retro 12s a size 11.5 fits the same almost perfect than a size 12
Ex: my royalty are size 11.5 fit perfect
i dont think they released this one on Feb 19th, tho, i think they got pushed back to March 11? Can you confirm on this one? Thanks
In Canada, Europe and Asia it did
These too clean better than the taxis. I’m lucky to cop mines
I need these!
I got these on Saturday in toronto I don’t the store was supposed to sell it to us yet lol
They dropped in Canada on Saturday at a lot of shops
@@SeanGo ah ok makes sense , I don’t think they dropped in states unless they had a shock drop
must have!!! one of the best 12s ever. 🔥
These are 🔥🔥
Luckly got em thru SNKRS release.
$180 for 6.5 mens good price?
What would a pair of the originals unworn value out at?
Good question. 12s don’t seem that hyped in general so it’s kind of a niche product almost.
Did the us SNKRS shock drop today?
I don’t think so
I've gotta me those Air Jordan 12 Retro shoes
Need info on those pants Sean .
Jordan brand engineered track pants
So did you go with your true size 10 Sean go? Or 9 1/2 ??
9.5
Good to know
@@SeanGo yeah I went half size down also. Def stiff. Breaking them in as I type this like lol
Great video
Thanks
MJ used this sneaker on every home game during 1997 Playoffs and NBA Finals against the Jazz
🤝
Got an L on snkrs but a W on my local store. Me happy!
Is the leather SHINY? Or MATTE? 🤔
More on the shiny side
What's kind of pants are those my brother ?
Nike Sportswear Track Pant / Joggers
NICE I LIKE IT
This will be my first Jordan 12...
Good choice
When are they dropping?
Tomorrow in Canada, I believe March 1 in the US
@@SeanGo ok, thanks
Fave shoetuber
❤️❤️❤️❤️
🔥
These are 1....flu are 2 gamma 12 are 3
2nd best colourway imo after flu game 12s
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
🤩🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍👌👍
Quality look worse then the royalty’s 😭
Pretty disappointed in this retro tbh
Snkrs website better bless me this tomorrow morning 🤞
Thanks for the review bro🙌
These shoes are designed after the Japanese flag of the Rising Sun ascension.
The Rising Sun Ascension is the national flag used by Japan when it invaded Korea.
Do not buy these shoes.
They does not like AJ12.
