The Color of Excellence
University gold has always carried a particular weight in sports culture — it's the color of trophies, of championship hardware, of the highest standard in collegiate and professional athletics. On the AJ12's premium leather construction and Tinker Hatfield's Rising Sun-inspired design, university gold feels exactly right: a colorway that matches the ambition of the silhouette, the legacy of the Jordan Brand name, and the excellence that both have always represented.
White leather. University gold. The Air Jordan 12 Retro 'University Gold' is what it looks like when the gold standard wears its own color.
