The Air Jordan 13 is secretly my favorite Jordan, that I do not have. I think the silhouette is absolutely beautiful. I love the bubbly sole, the upper that hides the laces and just looks like one smooth, cohesive design. I love the little circle details that add a punctured texture to the upper’s encasing overlay. The bubble circle on the back heel that includes the Jordan logo is like having eyes on the back of your shoes, keeping a look out for bad sneaker weather on the floor level at all costs. I just love this sneaker.

This rendition of the Air Jordan 13 Flint has been seen before. The OG pair launched in 1998 and was last seen in 2010. There should be a wider “True OG” collection of sneakers that will launch alongside this highly anticipated rerelease. The latest version includes a white pebbles letter on the toe, 3M reflective navy mesh side panels and Flint grey suede on the heels and mudguards below the navy. I love the colorway all together, and 3M is always a fun element to have and flex for some photos.

The sneaker is said to drop in family sizes, so there should be a pair for everyone, if you’re lucky enough to have your entry selected. I have a few others on my up-and-coming list, so I will not be attempting to cop, but I will continue to admire the beauty from a far.
