The Air Jordan 13 (XIII) Original (OG) - White / True Red - Black were released on November 1, 1997. They feature a white and black leather upper, with red accents, which can be seen on the Jumpman logo on the tongue, and on the outsole. The shoe features an interesting design, as it is modeled after the paw of a black panther. The green hologram at the heel is said to be the eye of the beast, while the white area along the midsole represents the paw. The outsole features a modified herringbone pattern which provides great traction, and along with the Zoom Air insoles, help to make these very comfortable shoes.
