The Air Jordan 12 gained its association with Michael Jordan's memorable performance during the 1997 NBA Finals, commonly referred to as the 'Flu Game'. Despite battling a high fever of 103 degrees, Jordan managed to score an impressive 38 points. This particular women's edition of the AJ12 pays homage to Jordan's time at the University of North Carolina, showcasing a University Blue and white color scheme that honors his alma mater. The retroed design of the shoe includes a tumbler leather upper, metal eyelets, and Jordan branding on the heel tab.
