The Air Jordan 12 Twist is named strangely, but the colorway itself is clean enough. It’s predominantly white with little hints of metallic red in just the right spots, which made us wonder if this was a continuation of a series that the brand did a few years back. These may not be the classic 12’s that everyone wants, but it’s nonetheless an Air Jordan XII retro.
Check out Chris’s thoughts on the AJ 12 Twist in the video and article.
