The WNBA is gearing up for its annual All-Star Weekend with its 2023 All-Star Game in Las Vegas led by superstar captains Breanna Stewart and A’ja Wilson. In celebration of this event, Jordan Brand has tapped the league’s “Brilliant Orange” hue, outfitting the Air Jordan 12 with the bold color.

Kicking off this slick pair of kicks, the upper prominently displays “Brilliant Orange” at the textured mudguard. Above this layer, black tumbled leather reaches from the toe to the heel. Enlivening its tongue and heel, various branding elements have been affixed to the shoe in the aforementioned orange. Supporting the classic sneaker, the sole unit leans heavily on the bright hue with bits of black and translucent windows included at the outsole.

While Nike has yet to disclose any release details surrounding the Air Jordan 12 “Brilliant Orange,” its launch is currently expected to take place on July 13, just two days ahead of the WNBA All-Star Game. Look for it to be available via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a price of $200 USD in women’s sizes.
