    Batman didn’t wear Jordan’s in 1989 he wore Nike Air Trainers, but Batman In 1992 wore Jordan 6s I believe.

    • @WearTesters
      @WearTesters  Рік тому +62

      Correct. Chris just asked which shoes were worn in each movie. He didn’t specify which brand - but if we’re being technical, Jordan Brand didn’t exist in 89 or 92 so they were both Nikes.

    These 12s are beautiful. The black upper material almost reminds me like the material they used on some of the pairs of the 2018 Gym Red 12s. The material along with the pop of the taxi color looks so cool. Well, I’m a Steelers fan so maybe I have a little bias too. 😂 These will be purchased.

    For me, I was good with the Payton 12. These are the Concord 12's but with Taxi. The hits of yellow just aren't enough imo. I think they should use the OG 12 color blocking, but then just give us all the colors. The upper can be white or black.

  • @TheDudeAbides1998
    @TheDudeAbides1998 Рік тому

    I wish they would stick with the shape of the insoles like the originals and the few early retro runs of the 12. I prefer the EVA insoles. I don't like how the arch on the insoles ride so high. They need to glue the insoles down.
    The tongues, I prefer the way the 2009 run of the tongues sit in place doesn't lean off to the side of the shoe. The 2022 playoff 12, my right pair leans more to lateral side. It might just be the fit, the materials used on the tongue and the amount of padding on the 2009 version is what I prefer. The newer remaster latest run of 12s fit differently. Now you have to lace up higher to keep them from heel slippage.
    Those white/red (Japan 12) is what got me started liking Jordans. It's either hit or miss nowadays with the 12s.

  • @Andrew77MUFC
    @Andrew77MUFC Рік тому +3

    These are clean imo. I love 12s , the 11s and 12s are my all the favorite Jordan models. Both of their original releases pretty much turned me into a sneaker-head in the 90s. With 12s I am mostly OG over anything else but i do make rare exceptions , I did pick up the Stealth 12s from earlier this year for example.
    Like Chris i am usually not much of a fan of all black sneakers but i do like these. Just not sure I will go for them , recently hit on more pairs than i expected so trying to be more selective with the funds / pick ups ; so just not sure i will pull the trigger on these. I doubled up on the Playoff 12s and picked up the Stealth 12s , so i might be done with 12s for now until I try for the Maniere 12s (when they release) ; unless we get a surprise OG colorway between now and then.
