From remastered Air Max 95 OG Big Bubbles to Air Force 1s and Valentine’s Day-themed Air Jordan 3s, pink has been a key color across much of Nike, Inc.’s 2025 retro footwear. As we step further into the holiday season, Jordan Brand has lined up yet another pink-tinged look for one of its most classic sneakers.
Set for a November release is the Air Jordan 12 Retro “Pearl Pink.” Built around a white tumbled leather with the Air Jordan 12’s signature faux reptile mudguard, the rest of the shoe mixes Pearl Pink and Medium Soft Pink shades for a subtly accented style that retains all of the model’s classic elements. The flat Medium Soft Pink hue is used on the shoe’s liner and rubber outsole, while the TPU Jumpman spell-out badge and Jumpman-branded eyelets are given a pearlized Pearl Pink finish.
