Okay, folks, let’s dive into my little project with the Jordan 12 “Blue White” kicks. I’ve always loved the look of these, and I finally decided to get my hands on a pair and give them a little extra something.

First, I scored a pair online. I went back and forth on a few sites, comparing prices and making sure I was getting an authentic pair. That’s always step one, right? You gotta make sure you’re not getting ripped off with some fakes.
Once they arrived, I unboxed them like it was Christmas morning. Seriously, the smell of new sneakers is just… chef’s kiss. I spent a good few minutes just admiring them, checking out all the details. The leather on these is pretty nice, and that blue and white combo is just classic.
The Customization Plan
I didn’t want to go crazy with customization. I like the clean look, but I thought a subtle touch would be cool. I decided to go for a lace swap.
- Find the suitable color.
- Make sure the length fit.
- Consider durable material.
I went with some light grey laces. My original thought go with some blue,but grey can make the blue part much more stand out.I ordered a pair that were the same length as the originals, just to be safe. You don’t want your laces dragging on the ground, or being too short to tie properly.
The Lace Swap
Changing the laces was pretty straightforward.

I unlaced the original white ones, making sure to keep them in case I ever want to switch * start lacing up the new grey.
It took a little bit of fiddling to get the tension right, making sure both sides were even. But once I was done, I stepped back and… yeah, I was feeling it. It’s a small change, but it gives the shoes a slightly different vibe. Makes them a little more unique, you know?
Finally,I put them on and walked around the * that is the most import part to show them *’s pretty much it! A simple, subtle customization that I think makes a big difference.
