So last Thursday, I was on the GOAT app looking for 1996 taxi XII's as a restoration project. So I found a pair slightly worn in a size 12.5 for $149 + tax & shipping. The pair arrived in the mail, and I'm hyped. I checked them out, and everything looks good. The Jumpman tabs are still intact, but there's some creasing around the toebox of both shoes. I look at the hand tag, and I was expecting to see the standard production date code, like "960507 LN2. NOPE—I see "330556 LN2" I decided to go online to find pictures of authenticated Jordan 12 PE's and see if I could find pictures of any 96 PE 12 handtags. I came across the old auction for the "flu" game 12 PE's MJ wore in the finals. In the pic thread, they have a picture of the handtag. With the code 330224 LN2
I think I may have bought a pair of PE taxi 12's for under 200 bucks. Is there anyone who could provide some insight about who might have worn them? I know it's not MJ's game worn pair but I'd love to speculate about who wore 12.5 in the NBA and was granted the right to wear Jordans after his return. The only person I've seen wear taxi 12's was Cliff Rozier of the 1996–97 Raptors on January 25, 1997, against the Bulls in Chicago.
