MUST HAVES: Air Jordan 12 “Rising Sun”

When will the “Rising Suns” rise?

I had October 24th marked on my calendar  for a long time. But the day before I was set to pick up a pair of  these, I found news that the release was being postponed. There is much speculation that this all has to do with the insoles of the shoe which feature a Japanese flag styling (In Japanese culture, it is improper for one to walk on a Japanese flag).

Jordan Brand has yet to release any information on why the release was officially pushed back, however, a date was finally chosen: November 21st ($150.00).

So on that Saturday, check your local Footlocker for our first ‘must-have-shoe’ of the season.
