Jordan 12 Retro Taxi CDP (2008) (GS)

The Air Jordan 12 Retro is one of the most popular Air Jordan's of all time. In 2008, Jordan Brand retroed the original white, black and taxi colorway for the first time. Nicknamed the "Taxi" edition, they feature a white-based leather upper with black accents, red branding, gold hardware and taxi yellow colored carbon fiber. This pair was only available as a part of the final "Countdown" Pack, along with the "Playoff/Bred" AJ 11. Their release date was December 26th, 2008 and was available in men's and gradeschool sizing. If you missed out on this "CDP," you would've had to wait until December of 2013 before you would get your chance to snatch this Air Jordan 12 Retro up at retail again. What made this pair special and different from all the other retro versions was the custom printed insoles, representing the 23rd Anniversary of the Air Jordan as well as the custom packaging it was housed in. While most AJ 11/12 CDP's were kept whole, some people still split them up, deciding to keep one pair and sell the other. Because of this, you can buy either pair by itself or as a complete set online. Check out the marketplace to see if you'd rather have just the Air Jordan 12 Retro or the pack in its entirety.
