If you like screechy floorboard-gripping traction that bites indoors and outdoors alike, and can live with a soft, loose upper that lets the foot slide off the footbed on hard cuts, then this shoe is for you.

Story & provenance
Final Control Benchmark
Released in 2018, Jordan CP3.XII arrived in the closing stretch of the CP3 line, after the formula had been refined for years. The design intent centered on ending the series with the same control-first identity that made it popular with point guards. Notable versions or talking points included its role as one of the last true CP3 guard shoes and the familiarity of its setup. In community memory, the shoe is usually remembered for excellent control and traction, with cushioning that stays practical rather than indulgent. It also helps mark a specific turning point inside that line, because the shoe shows what the brand prioritized at that moment rather than simply copying the previous release.
