This was an excellent pair of shoes. The original release of the playoff 12's, since coined "Flu Game" 12's. In honor of Michael's "Flu Game". Game 5 of the finals against the Utah Jazz, Michael scored 38 points to win the game, all while having flu like symptoms. Was it food poisoning, or was he really just hungover? Either way, this game cemented Jordan as one of the most mentally tough players in NBA history. Great example of an original pair with the side tabs still intact. Material quality and construction on this pair was great.
