A detailed look at the Air Jordan 13.

The Air Jordan 13 was released in the 'University Blue' colorway on December 23, 2022. Fans can purchase the iconic basketball shoes for $200 in men's sizes and $150 in big kids' sizes on the Nike website.

Since its initial release in November 1997, the Air Jordan 13 has enjoyed unrelenting popularity. This time, the unmistakable silhouette is dressed in all black with university blue accents. 

The colorway is a nod to Jordan lore. During Jordan's playing days, he earned the nickname "black cat," which inspired Tinker Hatfield in the design process of the Air Jordan 13. And, of course, the university blue detailing is a tribute to the North Carolina Tar Heels.

Fans interested in buying the Air Jordan 13 'University Blue' should act fast, or they might get stuck paying resale prices. Stay locked into FanNationKicks.com for all your footwear news.
