Air Jordan 12 ‘Bucks’: Release Date, Price & 30th Anniversary Details

Jordan Brand isn’t slowing down anytime soon. While sneakerheads are still gearing up for 2025’s heavy hitters, like the long-awaited return of the Black Cat 4s, eyes are already shifting toward what’s next.

Introduction:

And 2026 is shaping up to be big, with the Air Jordan 12 celebrating its 30th anniversary in style. One of the standout drops tipped for next Autumn? The ‘Air Jordan 12 ‘Bucks’.

First teased by reliable insiders @zSneakerHeadz and Sneaker Files, the upcoming pair is said to pull inspiration from the Milwaukee Bucks, a clever twist on a silhouette that’s become famous for how well it adapts to new colourways. 


Design Details:

Though we haven’t seen official images just yet, early mock-ups show a crisp white leather upper with the AJ12’s signature ribbed panels, paired with a green faux-reptile mudguard and matching outsole. 

The look is classic, clean, and instantly wearable, while nodding to the OG blocking of favourites like the ‘Taxi’ and ‘Cherry’. If you loved the Blueberry 12s from late 2024, this one’s going to feel familiar, but with a fresh team-inspired twist.

Interestingly, this colourway may also remind longtime collectors of a rare Ray Allen PE (player exclusive) from his early Jordan Brand days. Jordan has a history of reimagining those coveted PEs for the public, think Chris Paul’s AJ13 from 2015 or the Ray Allen AJ7 that finally dropped in 2019, and the ‘Bucks’ could be the latest in that lineage.

Release Info:

Expect the Air Jordan 12 Retro ‘Bucks’ to hit shelves in Fall 2026 with a $205 price tag. As the AJ12 turns 30, this release promises to be one of the year’s most talked-about drops.
