The latest Air Jordan 13 “French Blue” colorway dons a premium white tumbled leather upper that’s offset by vibrant blue nubuck underlays toward the heel counter and gray tumbled leather toe box. Adding a touch of color is a red Jumpman branding on the tongue and a holographic detail by the ankle collar. Rounding out the design is a blue and white panther paw-inspired outsole, which is a nod to NBA legend’s “Black Cat” nickname.
