Jordan Brand is ready for the cooler weather. In addition to some exciting Halloween-inspired colorways, Jumpman has unveiled a second "Fireside" colorway for fall. First seen on the Air Jordan 3, the Air Jordan 12 is now embracing the cozy concept.

Michael Jordan's 12th signature sneaker seems to get the best colorways, perhaps because of its premium style. This will be another exciting non-OG colorway for fans. Nike has already loaded the kicks onto its website a full two weeks ahead of the release date.

Jordan wore the Air Jordan 12 throughout the 1996-97 NBA season en route to winning another NBA Championship with the Chicago Bulls. Most fans will always prefer the OG colorways, but Jumpman continues to come up with exciting new styles.

Plus, the silhouette has had a strong resurgence as of late. Ray Allen's "Bucks" colorway, Taxi, and Bloodline have all highlighted the versatility of the legendary basketball shoe.
