After almost 10 years since its last release, Jordan Brand is preparing to launch the Air Jordan 12 "Flu Game" again in 2025.
It is far too early to talk about official images or an official release date. However, multiple sources have already confirmed that Nike is set to re-release the "Flu Game" color scheme on the Air Jordan 12 silhouette. Even though the color blocking is not yet known, the "Black / Varsity Red" color scheme suggests a retro version of the famous 1997 model. The shoe will release in a men's size run from 40 to 52.5 EU. The new Air Jordan 12 will release in January 2025, with a possible release date of January 4, 2025.
The color scheme has become iconic for Air Jordan collectors, being one of the most important colorways. The model is considered legendary because Michael Jordan wore it while battling flu-like symptoms, leading the Chicago Bulls to victory against the Utah Jazz in the 1997 Finals.
When is the Air Jordan 12 Retro “Flu Game” releasing?
The Air Jordan 12 Retro "Flu Game" is releasing during Spring 2025 on the Nike SNKRS app and at select Air Jordan Retro partner stores. At the moment, Jordan Brand has not announced an official release date. However, according to certain internal sources, the Sneaker Market Romania team believes the pair will release on January 4, 2025. According to other sources, the pair is releasing on March 1, 2025.
