The Air Jordan 12 Low Golf Tees Off in 'Taxi'

Jordan Brand will always be a performance basketball entity at heart, but it's got plenty of love for the links as well. The Air Jordan 1, Air Jordan 4, Air Jordan 11 Low and many other Air Jordan models have been re-worked into golf-ready options, and the latest silhouette to get in on the festivities is the Air Jordan 12 Low.

The Air Jordan 12 Low Golf has debuted in a 'Taxi' colourway that adheres closely to the style of the OG Air Jordan 12 'Taxi' from 1996. Made famous by Michael Jordan's on-court exploits in the 1996-97 NBA season and a memorable 'Frozen Moment' advert, its black-and-white style is replicated to a T here, and even accented with signature gold eyelets. There's one clever change in branding, however: the heel tabs replace standard 'Jordan' graphics with a fitting 'Golf' hit.

Of course, the outsole has been altered to meet the demands of golf as well. It features a toothy grip pattern with seven 'discs' that offer a holding point for removable spikes and is done up in glossy black TPU and rubber. The yellow-and-black carbon fibre plate under the arch is present and accounted for, providing a finishing dash of OG detail.

Expect the Air Jordan 12 Low Golf 'Taxi' to arrive on March 11, priced at $220.
