Air Jordan 13 “Black Cat” not only heralds the return of this 1997-98 classic, it also brings back the reflective paneling that made the original “Bred” and “Flint” editions legendary.

In case the “Black Cat” nickname doesn’t add up, Tinker Hatfield was inspired to infuse Air Jordan 13’s design with cat-like elements thanks to Michael Jordan’s “Black Cat” nickname. MJ’s ’90s NBA peers began referencing the name due to his smooth, calculated game during the 1995 to 1998 stint with Chicago Bulls. This retro combines the cat features, black panther blackout coloring, and green panther eye holograms for one of the most awesome themed Jordans ever created.

Release is coming up quickly on January 21st. Peruse the angles here and stick close for updates.
