Release update, September 14, 2026: The Air Jordan 12 “Bucks” released on September 12, 2026. Nike’s official listing confirms the adult price of $215, with grade school pairs at $155, preschool at $95 and toddlers at $80. Our September 4 correction replaced the earlier reported September 19 date and $205 adult price.
The Air Jordan 12 “Bucks” is a white-and-green retro that revives the look of Ray Allen’s old Milwaukee player exclusive and brought it to a general release on September 12, 2026. Mockups picture a clean white leather upper sitting over a Gorge Green mudguard and sole unit, the same Bucks-coded palette Allen wore on the hardwood two decades ago.
The pair lands during a busy stretch for the silhouette. Jordan Brand has already lined up the holiday Air Jordan 12 “Egg Nog”, and the green makeup follows recent Air Jordan retros that lean on bold single-color tooling. Despite the nickname, this release is not an official Milwaukee Bucks or NBA collaboration. The name is shorthand for the city Allen made his own, and the green simply reads as Milwaukee to anyone who watched him launch threes in a number 34 jersey.
The Air Jordan 12 “Bucks” Design
The mockups build on the familiar Air Jordan 12 frame, with a tumbled white leather upper carrying the model’s signature radiating stitch lines across the quarter panel. Gorge Green covers the textured, scale-patterned mudguard and wraps the midsole and outsole for a tonal lower half. Iridescent metallic lace locks and eyelets handle the hardware, while black fills the collar lining, tongue, and heel tab. The insole carries a green Jumpman, and an iridescent purple shank plate peeks out along the arch, the only spot where the makeup strays from a strict two-tone story.
The tooling is where the Milwaukee read comes through hardest. A green herringbone outsole runs the length of the shoe, broken up by black traction pods and a translucent shank window. It is the kind of clean, color-blocked AJ12 that recent retros like the “Cherry” and the Air Jordan 12 “Melo” have proven sell out quickly. For everything else on the calendar, our Air Jordan release dates hub tracks each confirmed drop.

Who Is Ray Allen and Why the Bucks Tie-In?
Ray Allen is a Hall of Fame guard and one of the greatest shooters in NBA history, and he spent the first six and a half seasons of his career with the Milwaukee Bucks. As one of Jordan Brand’s earliest endorsed athletes, Allen received Air Jordan 12 player exclusives in Bucks-friendly colors, including a white-and-green pair with gold hardware and “RAY” stitched on the heel. This retail version reworks that PE energy in fresh colors, which is why JustFreshKicks expects strong demand from collectors who remember the originals. It is worth noting the new green is a brighter Gorge Green, not the deep forest tone of Allen’s PE, and the hardware switches from gold to iridescent metallic.
