Inspired by one predator of the jungle and pushed further by another of the jungle's fiercest predators. Featuring Zoom Air and an ankle jewel that invokes a black panther's eye, the Air Jordan XIII originally took its design cues from one of nature's quickest cats, recalling MJ's own pounce in the paint. The Island Green AJ XIII follows that OG heritage, but also reels in one of the most ferocious jungle predators found on a tropical island: the crocodile. An Island Green suede heel, midsole and mudguard sit below a crocodile-like embossed leather upper, conveying the same speed, power and fearlessness that MJ displayed night in and night out on the court.
