Air Jordan 12 Retro ‘Flu Game’ 2025

The Greatest Performance Ever Played: Air Jordan 12 Retro 'Flu Game' 2025

June 11, 1997. Game 5 of the NBA Finals. MJ was so ill he could barely stand — and he went out and dropped 38 points, including the go-ahead jumper with 25 seconds left, to give the Bulls a pivotal win over the Utah Jazz. He was wearing the Air Jordan 12 in black and red. That game became known as the Flu Game, and the shoe he wore became one of the most legendary colorways in sneaker history.

The 'Flu Game' colorway is the AJ12 in black and red — the combination that carries the weight of the single greatest individual performance in NBA Finals history. The black leather upper set against varsity red accents on the lace unit, Jumpman branding, and outsole creates a high-contrast, high-stakes colorway that's impossible to wear without feeling the gravity of what it represents. The 2025 retro brings it back with the premium execution the legend demands.

• Premium black leather upper with varsity red 'Flu Game' accent detailing throughout
• Red Jumpman branding, lace unit, and outsole accents — the 'Flu Game' signature look
• Distinctive stitched leather panel construction — AJ12 design DNA at its most iconic
• Carbon fiber heel counter for lightweight support and structural integrity
• Full-length Air-Sole unit for responsive all-day cushioning
• Rubber outsole with herringbone traction pattern
• Comes with original box — 2025 retro of the 1997 Finals colorway

38 points. A fever. A legend. The Air Jordan 12 Retro 'Flu Game' 2025 is the shoe MJ wore on the greatest night of his career — and every time you put them on, you carry that moment with you.
