Still plenty of life left. Size 9.5. The Jordan 13 Retro Playoffs are making another return in 2023, its first appearance since its last retro in 2011. Michael Jordan debuted the Air Jordan 13 Playoffs in the 1998 NBA All-Star game, and continued to wear the sneakers throughout the season en route to his record breaking sixth NBA championship. ​ ​Tinker Hatfield's original design for the Jordan 13 was inspired by Jordan’s aggressive play style, which was referred to as a Black Cat. The retro sneaker features black leather uppers, suede mudguards, and holographic eyes that sit below each collar.
