Jordan Brand Celebrates Super Bowl LV With This Special Air Jordan 12 Low Colorway
Complete with a “Flu Game” inspired palette and “813” embellishments that nod to the event’s city host of Tampa.
After two nail-biting NFC and AFC championship games, NFL Super Bowl LV is set with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Kansas City Chiefs gearing up to battle for the Vince Lombardi Trophy. And to celebrate the event, Jordan Brand is back with another round of commemorative footwear as it has just unveiled its impending Air Jordan 12 Low SE “Super Bowl” by way of official imagery.
By the nature of its color palette, one can draw comparisons to the ever-famous Air Jordan 12 “Flu Game”, but the Jumpman design team calls upon subtle accents and patterns here that allow this installment to stand on its own. Primarily split between a duo of tones, the upper body of these kicks is outfitted with a pitch black canvas that makes up its heightened panel, while a premium tumbled leather dipped in “Varsity Red” takes care of the mudguard. Subtle “Metallic Gold” embellishments show out through the lace stays positioned near the ankle, in addition to the Jumpan-branded molds that rest along the lower mid-foot. Further accents to point out include that of the two-toned red and orange heel tabs as well as the retro confetti-like graphics that line the sock liner, the former of which embroiders “813” on its interior to nod to Tampa’s area code as this is where the Tom Brady vs. Patrick Mahomes showdown will be hosted.
Outsoles continue much of the same motif from its upper body as the forefoot is coated with “Varsity Red”, while the heel region is dunked in black.
Check out an in-depth look at the pair up above, and note that these will be dropping on February 6 in men’s and grade school sizes through Nike and select retailers.
In case you missed it, official photos of the Air Jordan 5 “Anthracite” have popped up.
