One of the most loved Jordan Brand models is set to be re-released on November 15.

The pair features a "White/Black-True Red-Cement Grey" colorway as described on the box label. Interested buyers can purchase a pair at Nike.com, Footlocker.com, House of Hoops by Foot Locker, Eastbay.com and Rock City Kicks. In a report by Foot Locker, their shops held a sweepstakes ticket procedure on November 10 and 11 to determine individuals who can buy a pair in their size.
At Nike.com, only one pair will be released for each customer. The Jordan 13 "Grey Toe" will be available in full family sizing. The Air Jordan 13 Retro for girls will retail at $130. Preschool sizes will retail at $80 and toddler sizes will be available at $60. Men sizes will be set at a retail price of $185.
The same report details that the Air Jordan 13 "Grey Toe" is a re-released version of the 1998 model which Michael Jordan wore in his final year with the Chicago Bulls. The shoe features a grey toe piece, white quilted leather upper, and red suede. The tongue features grey suede and the shoelaces are grey too. The red suede runs along the sides all the way to the back of the shoe. The signature hologram bubble is also present at the ankle area of the shoe. The shoe also features a white insole. The midsole is red while the pods are white. The bottom of the basketball sneaker features a carbon fiber shank and a zigzag outsole pattern. A black Jumpman logo is stitched on the tongue and also appears on the outsole.
Sneaker News writes that the Air Jordan 13 Retro "Cement Grey" has one advantage over the original 1998 release. The red suede will not bleed onto the midsole. Before, the original red and white pair usually had the red suede bleed onto the white midsole. Currently, the midsole is painted red so users will no longer encounter the problem.
The Air Jordan XIII was designed by Tinker Hatfield and influenced by a panther. The hologram bubble represents a panther's eye while the pods on the midsole resemble the paw of the giant cat. The Air Jordan 13 "Grey Toe" is a great basketball shoe providing excellent support and being able to tolerate both indoor and outdoor courts with its durable construction and leather materials.
