The signature Air Jordan 13 sneaker model gets a new tonal makeover with the French Blue colorway for the season. The high-cut silhouette has previously been seen in Court Purple and Del Sol. This latest iteration retains most of the neutral look as most of the sneaker is made with white leather detail.
The shoe's sidewall has pockmarks as per usual and the aforementioned white tumbled leather is met with contrasting toe tips that are applied with Light Steel Grey as the hue. The standout French Blue can be seen making up the mudguards, which also add a touch of textural contrast with the soft suede material. It continues onto the collars before it's rounded out with Fire Red at the Jumpman logos.
