They say that we’re capable of producing our best creative results when we’re sick and especially feverish. However, this can hardly be applicable to the world of sports, where one needs to be physically present as much as possible. Of course when we talk about a prodigy like Michael Jordan… no one can outperform him. That’s right, it hasn’t rained but instead it’s the famous “Flu Game” being talked about from which the Air Jordan 12 Retro “Flu Game” got their name, in honor of the NBA finals game during which, despite being sick, MJ played a game to remember. And you can bet that it will continue to be talked about.
With time it became clear that he wasn’t dealing with a common cold but food poisoning from a pizza that he ate the night before at a hotel with friends, and some even suspect that the poisoning wasn’t… accidental. But not even this could break Michael, and the next day in the Chicago Bulls game against the Utah Jazz, he scored 38 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 turnovers. It’s best if you check out the spectacle yourself, with the great MJ acclaimed by the crowds.
Being able to wear the sneakers MJ was wearing on that day, the mythical Air Jordan 12 Retro “Flu Game”, along with many others that he used to reach victory is lucky for those of us who want to remember this moment in a different way. What better way to pay tribute? Just like the year of the game, this model in red and black was released in 1997 and has been reissued many times up until now. In 2003 the retro OG version was released and in 2009 another version that didn’t receive good feedback for its innovations.
The latest Air Jordan 12 Retro “Flu Game” go on sale on the 28th and takes back the retro model using premium leather with a special detail on the heel. Why don’t you just take a look at the pictures. .
