Air Jordan 12 Retro 'Taxi' (2025)
Air Jordan 12 Retro 'Taxi' (2025) – Black and Yellow. Nothing Else Needed.
The Air Jordan 12 Retro 'Taxi' is the AJ12 at its most iconic and most instantly recognizable — black and taxi yellow on the silhouette that Tinker Hatfield designed in 1996 as a tribute to Japan's rising sun flag and the discipline of Samurai culture. The 'Taxi' colorway has been one of the most beloved AJ12 releases since its original debut, and the 2025 retro brings it back with the premium construction and faithful details it deserves. Bold, graphic, and completely timeless — the AJ12 that proves black and yellow is the most powerful two-color combination in sneaker history.
