In 2011, Jordan Brand embraced the Chinese Zodiac without reservation, featuring the Air Jordan 2011, Air Jordan 2011 Q-Flight, and Air Jordan VII Retro in a gorgeous color palette capturing the traditional Chinese undertones with the Red/Gold colorway. Here we have a look at the Air Jordan 2012 in a new Blue/Yellow colorway, representing the animal in focus for 2012 – the Dragon; it features a two-toned upper of royal and aqua blue with a contrasting bright yellow on the inner lining as well as on the Dragon graphics on the tongue. The Jumpman logos on the tongue and upper are adored in a pure white, as is the solid outsole. We’ve got a detailed gallery awaiting you below so take a good look and let us know what you think, and be sure to stick with Sneaker News for more info on the Air Jordan ‘Year of the Dragon’ release. via air-randyhk.

Basketball's equivalent to the dragon's standing in Chinese culture is probably Michael Jordan, whose 2012 signature shoe will also be part of the pack. As the largest single-digit number, 9 is appreciated as a sign of utmost power and achievements. Only emperors can wear robes with 9 dragons. A 9-dragon wall was exclusive for the royal family. The number is also the lucky number for Michael Jordan. In his 9th season between 1992 and 93, Michael set personal and association records. Inspired by this mystical connection, the Jordan Brand design team worked on the Air Jordan 2012 for the new collection. The theme color of blue and a contrasting yellow lining gives the message of supremacy, accentuated by the dragon pattern around the Jumpman on the tongue. The effect peaks in the limited edition packaging, where red background is decorated with golden dragon and Jumpman, bursting with Chinese features. Two cushions and three midsoles are available, offering functional and aesthetic benefits.

That's by design. Just like Hollywood makeup on actreses and PhotoShop on print models. NOTHING IS EVER AS GOOD AS ADVERTISED.
