884129-400 Air Jordan 13 “Brave Blue” Will Release April 30th
New Jordan 2020, While not truly retro, this season’s Air Jordan 13 “Brave Blue” pays homage to the colorway’s debut on the 1998 low-top model. Likened to a “dream” — because a design like this has been considered for so long — this release is probably one of the most anticipated retro pieces of the year, and happily, it’ll be available on a full family scale. Similar in construction to the original Flints, the ‘Brave Blue’ features dimpled ballistic nylon covering the sides in the eponymous cool hue. The toe cap is finished in black knurled leather, which matches the tongue, lower profile and heel only in color.

All of these elements are present in the GS, PS and TD incarnations, albeit with subtle differences in appearance.
