Silly rabbit, these kicks are for kids. Each season, Jordan Brand crafts a handful of exclusive Air Jordans for kids, making sure to offer at least one Air Jordan Retro. The last pair for the little ones was a pizza-themed Air Jordan 4 that came in special packaging and featured pizza parlor motifs. Straying from a thematic colorway, the next kids exclusive Air Jordan will be a pink Air Jordan 12.
MJ’s 12th signature model is covered entirely in pink from top to bottom. The faux reptile skin mudguard wraps around the toe and midfoot in a tonal pink that matches the quilted tumbled leather base layer. The laces and tongue also follow along, while a deeper pink shade is applied to the Jumpman atop the tongue and the pull tab on the heel. The only non-pink details on the upper are the metallic silver eyelets and the Jordan text on the heel's spine. Below, a tonal pink foam midsole with a white and pink rubber outsole sits.
The pair joins a stacked lineup of Air Jordan 12s in 2025. So far, we’ve gotten retros of the French Blue, Flu Game, and Melo colorways, while this November, we’ll have a shot at the Taxi 12s. Jordan Brand previously gave the kids an exclusive AJ 12 in February 2024 with the White Vapor Green colorway.
The Air Jordan 12 Retro Pearl Pink GS will release November 21, 2025 through Nike and select Jordan Brand retailers online and in-store. Available in kids’ sizing, the retail price is set at $150 (GS), $90 (PS), and $75 (TD).
