The 1996-born original upon which it’s based is unquestionably among the Air Jordan Legacy’s very most elegant designs, but did anyone expect the Air Jordan XII to be remade as a chukka? The signs were there with the CMFT Max Air 12 and coming up next year there’s a Jordan 12 Runner on the way that along with the above pictured Air Jordan XII Clave go for a more casual approach. Despite their name, these don’t appear to be your traditional autoclaved/vulcanized sole, either, as these appear a carbon fiber springplate away from the OG bottoms; could more surprises be in store for the AJ12 Clave? Look more closely at this Light Graphite, Stealth and white one coming up for next summer and let us know what you think of the Air Jordan XII Clave. via CK
