The Air Jordan 13 debuted in 1997 and continued in 1998. Five high top colorways were released, followed by two low tops. It was retroed for the first time in 2004 and has continued to drop on an almost annual basis. Kicking things off for 2022 is the all-new “Court Purple” edition with more to follow throughout the year.
In addition to a few new colorways scheduled to be released, an OG colorway of the AJ 13 is also set to return, with a twist. Originally released as a low top on June 1st, 1998, the “Navy” Air Jordan 13 Low returned as the “Brave Blue” edition for its first retro release on April 8th, 2017. Now, five years later, the “Navy” AJ 13 Low will be released in high top form for the first time ever. Coming in navy, university blue, black and white, it features a dimpled 3M reflective overlay and leather toe. Suede wraps around the ankle down to the midsole as well as on the tongue. University blue branding is found via the Jumpman logo embroidered on the tongue with white accents on the midsole to break up the color.
The Air Jordan 13 Retro Navy is set to release on April 2nd, 2022. It will launch at Nike as well as select Jordan Brand retailers in-store and online. They will be available in full-family sizing, from men to toddler. Men’s pairs will retail for $200. Find raffles and releases for the Jordan 13 here.
