Looks the same as the last retro as far as pictures.
In for a personal pair for sure.

I hope that early pic is a fake.
The cuts and suede looks horrible and lazy, I can't be the only one to see this

That was nice to share about your experience with the XIII when they originally released in 1997-98.
But I must correct you about this colorway because it was released in late March 1998. I remember it was around that time because they were released on a Saturday, the day before WrestleMania XIV.
No way, dude. These won't even sit around for it to go on sale because retros of original colorways have sold out fast for several years now.
Historically, pretty much any retro of an original colorway will sell out fast. Even if they don't sell out on the first day, they'll definitely sell out in less than 7 days after they're re-released.

Not anymore, the last couple of OG cws have sat. Look at the fire red 3s that came out in September. I can still find them in person and online they have been restocked every week on Nike. Same thing happened with Playoff 12s. Historically 13s ain’t a popular model and this cw is less sought after than the others but I’m ok with that. Right now the most popular model is the Jordan 4

Haha yeah man, 97/98 don’t remember the year, my only memories that I even had the shoe were pictures taken.
Which reminds me I need to go to my parent place to find them

Hopefully these are as easily to get as Playoff 12's. I'm assuming so cause it's all star weekend and they bring out a ton of them.

Still rocking my 2011s but these will be copped for sure. Love these!

My 2011s got mold from a water leak. I was gonna buy another pair right before the last dance. Slept then it was over after that. These are my favorite 13s over flints.

I don't think these are going to sellout like that plus with them releasing during all-star wk there will be plenty.

I agree that some original colorways sat after release day as I saw them in stores I walked in. But going on sale isn't possible because they normally sell at regular price with people paying up for it. They would have to sit for a really long time for them to get marked down. They're normally sold out in less than 6 months after the release date.
It's crazy that the XIII isn't a popular model because I think they're the second best model after the XI. I'm really into the XIII.
I don't think you missed out on much because the quality and details on Jordans diminished badly to the point they looked like bootlegs during that period. I gladly passed on the 2011 version of these.
Quantities have been somewhat plentiful with the original colorways the last couple of years. I think we can safely assume these will be plentiful since it's an original color.

This. Suede and and leather panels look like ****...
Wanted to see the bottom too to see if they put grey on there like the OG. Either way if that's a real pair, it's sad

What’s the most recent 13 you’ve copped?

That early pic does look off. Hopefully closer to RD we get better pics.

Why the F is the Jumpman logo on the tongue of the 2023 version overweight like a MF? It looks more like a silhouette of DJ Khaled instead of a Jumpman logo on it.

Those pics look HORRIBLE. That “leather” is disgraceful. Smfh, if this is how they are gonna release then it’s a pass for me. The 2011 looked way better than these and those were nothing to write home about. I don’t understand why JB keeps putting these ****** materials on 12’s and 13’s.

Man nothing beats the og and for the price they are charging the least jb could do is get it right.

You don’t think the recent run of 13’s look like bootlegs?

Jordan brand continues to take a crap on the 4's and 13's 2 of the most popular models.

I like the 13s but I'm not sure if they're one of the more popular models. Always seem very easy to attain.

Passing on these, I got a VNDS pair of the 2011 retro for less than $100 shipped. For $210 these need to be identical to the OGs
