Air Jordan 12 Taxi Sample

The Nike Air Force 1 LAM (Mita Promo Sample) (Style Code: BMQ232-M4-CI) is believed to be a pre-production promotional sample that later led to the release of the “Air Force 1 温故知新” (309360-001).
The upper is based on the classic AF1 silhouette, with premium ostrich leather applied to the heel. Embroidered cherry blossom motifs and the word “UENO” further highlight the design’s deep ties to Japanese culture.
These embroidery details were later carried over to the released Nike Air Force 1 “UENO SAKURA” (309360-001), underlining the design significance of this sample.
The “LAM (Laser Applied Marking)” in the model name refers to Nike’s experimental use of laser processing technology at the time. This sample stands as one of the markers of that developmental phase. Never released publicly and existing only as a sample, it is extremely rare and an important piece in both Nike’s innovation history and Japan’s sneaker culture.
