(GS) Air Jordan 12 Retro 'Sunrise'

About this shoe

Created specifically for kids of grade school age, the Jordan 12 Retro Sunrise Sneakers in Racer Pink/White/Hot Punch is a vibrant sneaker that pops with bright color and undeniable style. The silhouette of the Jordan 12 Retro calls back to 1996, when this sneaker design was inspired by the rising sun of the Japanese flag. The leather upper of the GS Sunrise iteration features gradient colors, ranging from shades of orange and pink. Orange laces cover a darker orange tongue with a white Jumpman logo and "Two 3" branding. The heel tab sports "Jordan 23" branding, and the insole features a Rising Sun graphic. The midsole is white phylon housing an Air unit. This all sits atop a white rubber outsole surrounding bright red pods with herringbone traction. An engraved outline of a Jumpman graces the toe of the outsole and curls up the toe cap. The detail we appreciate most about this shoe is the hit of Metallic Silver on the mud guard that features "Jumpman" branding on the lateral side. The Jordan 12 Retro Sunrise Sneakers in Racer Pink/White/Hot Punch, an iteration of this silhouette designed specifically for grade school kids, was released on October 4th, 2019, for $140 retail.
