Jordan Shoes For 2012

The Air Jordan 12 Original - Taxi / White / Black - Taxi  was released in November of 1996. They feature a white and black make up, along with gold accents, as seen on the lacing eyelets. They are dubbed the Taxi, as the arch area and outsole feature a black and yellow portion, reminiscent of NYC taxi cabs.The shoe itself has some history behind it, as it was inspired by the Nisshoki, which is the Japanese rising sun flag, as well as a 19th century womens dress boot. It features stitched leather which radiates outward like sun rays, and this theme extends all the way to the arch of the shoe. The arch features two large rands, which run along the midsole, and feature embossed lizard skin, similar to the Air Jordan 2 (II).
