Air Jordan 12 Retro 'University Gold'

Air Jordan 12 Retro 'University Gold' — Championship Color on the Olympic 12

The Air Jordan 12 Retro 'University Gold' puts one of the most prestigious colors in sports on the silhouette MJ wore when he led the 1996 US Olympic Dream Team to gold in Atlanta. University gold and black come together on the AJ12's quilted leather upper in a colorway that feels like a trophy — bold, prestigious, and built for those who associate gold with winning rather than excess.

Gold Doesn't Apologize

• University Gold Colorway — Rich university gold leather upper with black accents on the collar, laces, and outsole — a bold, high-contrast palette that gives the AJ12's substantial silhouette a championship-level presence that's impossible to miss
• Quilted Leather Upper — The AJ12's signature quilted leather construction in university gold delivers the premium, structured feel that has defined this silhouette since Tinker Hatfield drew inspiration from the Japanese Rising Sun flag in 1996
• Visible Air Cushioning — Nike Air unit in the heel for responsive, all-day cushioning true to the AJ12's original Olympic performance platform
• Carbon Fiber Shank — Midfoot carbon fiber plate for torsional support and stability, a performance detail that keeps the AJ12 as functional as it is collectible
• Rubber Outsole — Durable outsole in complementary tones with herringbone traction pattern built for the hardwood and everything beyond it

Gold medal. Atlanta 1996. The Jordan 12 was built for the biggest stage in sports. The 'University Gold' colorway makes sure it still looks the part every time it steps out the door.
