Tom Luedecke and Tinker Hatfield collaborated in the creation of the Air Jordan 2012 Deluxe, offering versatility with both high-cut and extra high-cut inner sleeve options, as well as three interchangeable midsoles. To honor the Chinese New Year in February 2012, a special limited-edition version called the 'Year of the Dragon' was introduced. The upper of this unique shoe combines Storm Blue and Tide Pool Blue, incorporating leather overlays on the toe, side panel, and heel for added durability. Notably, a dragon design encircles the iconic Jumpman logo on the tongue, adding a touch of exclusivity to this remarkable design.
