Successful colorways of the storied Jordan sneaker line usually have a tie to Michael’s days on the court. One colorway that came well after the days of Michael Jordan making posters out his opponents was the Altitude Green colorway of the Air Jordan Retro 13. When this shoe originally released in 2005 it seemed to be that even utmost of traditionalists took a step back and tipped their cap to Jordan for this colorway.

On December 11th, the Jordan Retro 13 will release again in the popular Black and Altitude Green colorway in limited quantities. One change that is most noticeable is the change on the side panel which moves from leather on the original release to a more traditional Jordan 13 mesh material. Features like the textured leather under panel, heel hologram, and Altitude Green accents remain true to the 2005 release.

Look for these at Eastbay on December 11th.
