Good to know, so it's supposed to be lizard/reptile skin. Never knew that.

It would have been nice if it was just on the black part, and the white was smooth soft leather. I know it would be reinventing a classic which shouldn't be messed with. But, I feel like it really noticeable and rather stick to Jordan's that don't have those issues.

welp...
Anybody know if there's a youtube video of the gif? If so, what is it called?

It is only on the black part? The white is tumbled leather.

I saw a pair where it clearly seemed like the reptilian leather on the black part continues all over.

Well, actually, to be honest with you

I've never seen a pair of Taxi's in my life. At least, not like today. I've only seen them in game during Bulls games and commercials. But, my parents could never afford a pair of Jordans growing up so I've never seen a lot of the retro's in person. This is my first time seeing and noticing the reptilian leather all over the shoe. I'd love to be able to double up, to wear one and keep one in my collection especially with these being classics. But, I can't afford to double or buy shoes I probably won't wear due to that reptilian leather all over turning me off.

I know nobody knows how these fit yet, but based on past retro 12s would you guys say these run true to size or big?
I wear a size 10 in 11s and 13s btw. Thanks

The Playoffs that dropped earlier this year (or last year? whenever it was) fit HUGE...half size big at least, if not a full size.

Thanks man, I just looked it up and I couldn't stop laughing. It reminded me of when I watched the movie with Bow Wow called "Like Mike" and Bow Wow was trying to say hi and get autographs from all the famous NBA players.

Hmm, that's interesting. Thanks for the heads up on the limit.
Not for me. The last online release I was able to get was the All-Star Barkleyposites. Since then, every other release that I wanted, I was unable to get. It's mind boggling to see how difficult it is to get shoes nowadays.

Well, if you want to double up and don't think there's any other way to get a second pair at retail and you don't mind paying $40 extra then go ahead it's your money. It'll probably be cheaper than what the resale price will be anyway. But if you can get a raffle ticket pay retail, and get a raffle ticket from other stores or online I'd try that as well.
EDIT: I didn't even realize I was replying to you bro lol I just clicked reply and said what I said.

I've been noticing that jordan brand sizing seems to shift almost on a yearly basis (at least for me). Metallic V's fit huge compared to the same size in the black grape V. Not sure now what to get size wise in these. I have obsidians but I am sure these will run smaller than those as I felt those ran a tad big.

With tax its round 180 and maybe more on some sites with shipping so thats only $30 or $20 extra technically

12's run a .5 size big.
I'm a 8.0 in these instead of 8.5, my 11's are a 8.5 though.
If you have the luxury make sure you try them on.

I see the rsvp's seem to be still available on some sites. Hopefully that means a simple enough cop online.
