Jordan 12 Retro Flu Game (2025)

The Air Jordan 12 Retro “Flu Game” (2025) brings back one of the most legendary sneakers in basketball history. Originally released in 1997 and last seen in 2016, this colorway immortalizes Michael Jordan’s unforgettable Game 5 performance in the 1997 NBA Finals — where he battled through flu-like symptoms to drop 38 points and lead the Chicago Bulls to victory. The shoe became a global symbol of resilience, grit, and greatness.

Faithful to the original design, the 2025 reissue features premium black tumbled leather across the upper for a sleek, durable finish. A textured varsity red mudguard and midsole provide bold contrast, while classic touches — including the Jumpman tongue logo and heel pull tab detailing — complete the timeless aesthetic.

Released March 1, 2025, the “Flu Game” 12 remains an essential piece of Air Jordan history, representing not just a sneaker, but a defining moment in sports culture.
