I'm not a band wagon sneaker head. I like these. Got em today. 95% of my clothing is black red & white. Got tons of jordan stuff & bulls stuff to match these. Im not a fan of gold. I like the silver eyelets & the red hits. Dont have the OG taxis & dont want em
Wait to them 1st of the month checks hit. I picked up a pair with the military discount at footlocker in the hood😂 on 69th and Ashland on south side of Chicago 😂.
I knew these would sit.. this is the SECOND time we’ve gotten a kinda sorta Taxi 12 if you include those Royalty 12’s we got in 2022.. they playin with us..
@@nixsis5281 forgot about those 🗑️🗑️ I honestly don’t even count those even though they have Taxi in the name.. I just meant the white ones because they’re the closest
they definitely were sitting stopped by the mall today and saw them sitting everywhere. Also picked up them space jam 11 lows at the outlet for below retail 🔥. Hope you’re doing good brodie
Saw them in person, Imma copy this upcoming week, got a plug however for the Nike Kobe 4 Protro "Girl Dad" for June 7th. These are nice though...and they are sitting everywhere where I am.
I'm glad nike put these out because I was able to get them at retail. I'm sure if it was what you collector's wanted I wouldn't have been able to get these dope 12's. They should of called them Chicago's or something cause the only bad rep I see about them is the name.
This is a dope shoe i copped mine in hand very nice. I got them because 12 are my favorite silhouette and never owned a pair of taxis. Tbh they should have called these the jordan 12 Chicago . But to me in my opinion its a taxi with a hit of Jordan 12 flu game red or Jordan 12 cherry red but a dope shoe. At the end of the day buy what you like💯
Respectfully... These should never have the word "Taxi" anywhere near them. The Ogs were called "Taxis" due to tbe Taxi Yellow color on the shoe (Jordan tab in the back). There is no Taxi Yellow on this shoe. These should properly be called the "Gym reds"
The treatment of 12's has been terrible lately. We keep getting 12's (minus the cherrys) in bad colorways or in colorways that make us want OG's more. Even though I thought the AMM 12's were dope, it appears many people thought otherwise. Maybe we need a stronger collab to push them into the spotlight again? Maybe Off-White or Travis? These 12's aren't bad if you are looking for casual beaters or hoop shoes but, hold for the collection? Pass.
I am sure if this came out when the original came out then this one would be the one that would sell over the OG. The color blocking plays much better than the solid black and white as it goes with the Bull's color scheme so it is more than likely Jordan would have worn these instead of just the black and white ones aka "OG". So if you are buying shoes to somehow recreate a time period then you're buying shoes for the wrong reason. Jordans are NOT time capsules so stop treating as if they are. I was there from the very beginning and to me it always has to do with the actual design of the shoes not what color it is or who wore it and when. Additionally, it is not like you have the actual shoes from the year it came out initially. You have an imitation or recreation of one not the actual shoe from that time period. I sold shoes when I was in college and can tell you the materials that they are using on these retros is nowhere near what it was when these shoes first came out. Some of the materials are better like the cushioning does not fall apart but as far as the luxury materials like the leather suede nowhere near with the older models had.
Ls on TS , draws really suck for me , 2019 OG mocha lows last draw W. Can’t complain on FCFS end , but that’s exactly my point and you know this, bro I spent enough loot double up all oh geez all that to where I should be able to get a draw W every once in a while from being in an algorithm & my pockets …. Luck of draw is one thing, but your cachet, you’re Account activity should be 90% of it. That’s a fair system. Not I handed my wife and account and she never tried in her life and she hit three times in a row you know good for you but really what about the customer? What about the real customer?
@@DEVINTAGE I ain’t tripping on the shoe bro I Kim but after you spend 5 figs low medium high. I’m a business owner , my customers that spend 10 racks & better I’m making you honorary F&F 😭fr though.
@@DEVINTAGE people dont care about OG anymore. They care about collabs……. They care about TS, j. Balvin, s. Wootherspoon, etc.. but resellers keeps on backdooring them😂
Im feelin em regardless of how close or not close they are to the OGs. Easy cop and a dope colorway.
Yeah these a solid pick up
they clean ash 🔥🔥🔥 im glad shoes are finally sitting
Yeah it’s a good and bad thing imo
@@DEVINTAGEY a bad thing
I picked these up right on launch from Nike $212 with tax these look great for what they are

Man I bought these because they had very small touches of red… where I’m from we can’t wear too much red or blue 😅
I feel you on that bro
I might cop them when they go on sale
Feel that 🙏🏾
@@DEVINTAGE Yes sir!

Facts bro 😂
Low key them OG 12s should've came out with the red tag from jump ,would've made more sense !!!
🤔 interesting
Yeah this more like a Chicago colorway
This... I'm from Chicago, and the red highlights seem like they should have been on the original instead of yellow.
My pair of red taxi came in today
😮💨💯🔥🔥
I think they’re 🔥 🤷♂️
🔥🔥🔥
What type of pants are those and where can I cop a pair the black ones with the buttons on the side
From black tailor use my discount code realdevintage10
I ordered my pair on da sneaker apps
🔥🔥🔥😮💨

3rd time actually, Black Taxi's.
Yeah facts bro. But honestly speaking now I think even if OG Taxis dropped then they would sit too 👀
@@nixsis5281 forgot about those 🗑️🗑️ I honestly don’t even count those even though they have Taxi in the name.. I just meant the white ones because they’re the closest
I’m not surprised I hit on 3 raffles what that tell u 🤣
😂😂😂
They just soooo close to OGs
So I thought they would sell
they definitely were sitting stopped by the mall today and saw them sitting everywhere. Also picked up them space jam 11 lows at the outlet for below retail 🔥. Hope you’re doing good brodie
What outlet location?
Space jams at the Nike outlet 😮😮
@@DEVINTAGE was at the outlet here in Texas and no space jams in sight. I already copped 2 pairs. u got a good deal
They should’ve made the lace locks red but they calm
Employee Discount pick up!🔥💤
🤔 I'll take a size 12 .. lol
Sheeeesh 🔥🔥🔥
I'll take a size 10.5 😁😉
I just wish the red was a metallic red but I’m big stepping dis summer
Saw them in person, Imma copy this upcoming week, got a plug however for the Nike Kobe 4 Protro "Girl Dad" for June 7th. These are nice though...and they are sitting everywhere where I am.
Yeah them Girl dads 🔥🔥😮💨
@@DEVINTAGEKobes are becoming my more favorite shoes to rock, still love Jordans, they just don't hit the same as they used to.
This is why I come to you...great review.
I appreciate that!
More to come for sure
Da hood love 12s! Got em. Got em. Got em! 🔥 and Ebay Top Star dropped their retail collection🔥had to put them Bred 4s in the cart for retail😎
The hood gone love em
I might pick them up if the price drops to like $160 in a couple of weeks
Yeah these might go on sale
Just checked there still available wow
I waited and got these today off Hibbett and was able to use my 20 dollar reward 190 out the door
Nice 🔥🔥🔥
These Jordan 12 red taxi was an easy smooth quick pick up for me 🔥✌️
Facts 🔥🔥🔥
where you get the jeans from in the first clip you showed
I’ll spend the block on these later I’ve copped way too many kicks this year already and fall haven’t even came yet! Pause.
😂😂😂 the pause was necessary
I had got em this morning I like them
Yeah these not bad at all
Black Angelus paint marker I'm bout to go taxi on these folk✌🏾
Facts bro
Me too
I copped these bad boys! They're 🔥 they probably could've marketed them better if had maybe dubbed them the "reverse cherry 12's"
Yeah facts bro I agree
They ain’t sitting in my stores just grad school
Really 😮 that’s wild
@@DEVINTAGE yep but I’m in Mississippi ain’t nothing but. 10 stores
These are clean but super unnecessary
I'll wait till they go on sale.
@@alfredmatthews1746same that’s probably what ima end up doing
Facts super clean
Somebody said these the Uber 12s lol
Hilarious
More like the Bus 🚌 12s! 😜
😂😂😂
😂😂 guess I’m an Uber it
Ima just bust out my royalty 12’s
🙏🏾 facts
that glue on the side ruins it....
They came out today but they sitting lol can u give at least a week
Nike need to drop OGs
damn this shoes is about $395 in footlocker i just got this shoes today
395??? Where you from
@@DEVINTAGE in toronto i bourght this in downtown right now
id say still legit lowkey fire, for me these are legit compare to royalty and the real taxis!
They're waiting for the Jordan 17 Lightning.
Need them bro
I got the royalties, but still gonna cop these
I took a capital L on the Travis joints ( As expected... so I copped those n the Green Glow 3s on heavy sale
Yeah I tooook a madddd L
I absolutely HATE that red tab! Geeeeeze 🙄 can i just get the taxiiiiiiiiiiiii’s
I want the OGs back too bro lol
Shoes nice as hell material on these slaughtering the taxis (premium taxi)
I do have to agree with you on the quality
These are calm that’s why they ain’t sell out
They still clean as hell to me
I seen someone with these on last night and they’re even terrible in person lol
Honestly these what Mike should’ve wore that red is 🔥 I do wish the carbon fiber was red tho
Someone accepted my offer on Goat for $140 so I paid $170 out the door and I have no complaints I would’ve paid $220 after tax in stores
Got mines 🙏🏻
If it aint Jordan 1&4 or 3 i aint copping.Its a pass for me
Just bad timing that’s all. Everybody was too focused on them Travis Scott’s. They’ll be back to cop later especially after catching all them L’s! 😜
Yea facts bro
Plus, everyone is waiting for the Jordan 17 Lightning to drop.
Call 3ls on the scotts and 3ls on the Balvin 🤦. Had 2 go out and buy cologne to make me feel better.
Pass

Imma just pull out my Cherrys 🤔
Good alternative
Jordan brand don't miss. Don't @me about it

What’s there to be surprised about
Cause they look so close to the OGs
They just look cheap with the white sockliner
Want it black?
What are you shocked about? Nothing has sold out in a year on general release. Stop playing games with people.
Who’s playing games? What you talking bout
Cap
The Jordan 4 Bred Reimagined was a general release and sold out.
@@Retrocollector84you can’t compare that sneaker to this one
@@thabomboneni2994 I am not, but it was a general release
If these go on sale I’m copping 100%.
I’m usually a OG over everything type of guy but these say Chicago more than the standard Taxis ijs 🤷🏻♂️ SUE ME
You right about that fam

Sleeper heat
Yeah man don’t nobody want these shits for 200$ smhh we want og taxi haven’t released since 2013
Yeah we need the OGs
Taxis are trash in my opinion because I hate the yellow gold lace eyelets. I wear white gold so these are fire to me
😮😮😮 that’s interesting
🔥🔥🔥
I def don't want the og taxis, red better than yellow.
No one cares for these. Jordan Brand needs to stop playing and finally give us the OG Taxis
💯💯💯
Yeah we want the OGs
I don’t know anyone who wants these… gotta drop OG and stop wasting time
