Air Jordan 12 ‘French Blue’ Makes A Comeback This August

Jordan Brand is treating fans to a strong lineup of Retro 12s this year.

Air Jordan 12 ‘French Blue’

Introduction:

After the return of the legendary Flu Games in March and ahead of the much-anticipated Taxi 12s in November, another classic is making its way back: the Air Jordan 12 French Blue is set to release on August 16, 2025.

Originally released in 2004 and last retroed in 2016, the French Blue 12s have earned their spot as a fan-favorite. They gained even more attention when Kobe Bryant famously wore a pair during his sneaker free agency period, securing their place in both basketball and sneaker history.

Design Details:

This 2025 edition keeps things true to the original. The upper is crafted from crisp white leather, complemented by a bold French Blue mudguard. Metallic Silver eyelets and side details add just the right amount of shine, while Varsity Red accents on the heel bring a subtle but striking contrast. The look is finished with the iconic Jumpman logo on the tongue, maintaining the timeless appeal of the silhouette.


Release Info:

Priced at $200 for adult sizing and available in full family runs, the French Blue 12s will be released via select Jordan retailers and Nike.com. Given this drop's excitement, expect pairs to move quickly, just like they did in 2016.

With the Flu Games, French Blues, and Taxis all returning in the same year, 2025 is shaping up to be a standout for Retro 12 collectors. If you're a fan of classic Air Jordans, this release deserves a spot in your rotation.

Mark the date, August 16. This is one you won’t want to miss.
