This Air Jordan 13 is a show-stopper.

Overall, the Air Jordan 13 is a silhouette that you cannot go wrong with. It is a model that debuted back in the late 90s, and to this day, it has remained relevant. This is all thanks to a plethora of great new colorways, as well as some pretty awesome retro variants.

Consequently, Jumpman has decided to keep the Air Jordan 13 momentum going. In any given year, so many Jordans are released that it can be hard to keep up. When it comes to the AJ13, however, it is clear that Jordan Brand likes to pick its spots. Subsequently, that has led to the "Black-University Blue" color scheme.

In the official images below, you can see this brand-new offering. We have teased this one before, and it is clear that Jumpman has a hit here. After all, University Blue is a color that fans adore, especially when you consider how it is tied to the Tar Heels and Michael Jordan's tenure at the school.

Firstly, this shoe begins with a black base. From the toe box to the side panels, this shoe hits you with a heavy dose of black. Secondly, the mudguard and back heel get the UNC treatment. These elements blend together to form a unique sneaker that is going to make a lot of sneakerheads happy.
