Here’s some info on two pairs that I’m sure a lot of you (including myself) have been hoping and praying for. After 15 years, 2012 will mark the return of the Obsidian/ White-French Blue-University Blue Air Jordan XIIs, and also the Black/White-Metallic Silver XIIs, aka the “Playoffs”. Sure, the Obsidians received a retro release in low top from back in ’04, but that doesn’t count. This time, it’s the real deal. The Obsidians were actually my first pair of Air Jordans, so they have certain sentimental value to me. Here’s a look at samples of both the Obsidians and Playoffs. They are scheduled for release sometime in June 2012, so mark your calendars. As for me: Two pairs minimum.
