Air Jordan XIII was released 1997,designed by Tinker Hatfield,he kept on making original designs. The Air Jordan XIII shoe featured a nice hologram on the ankle and the design was said to be inspired by a panther. The outsole with pads like a paw and circles representing whiskers. The hologram showed the following images;

- The number 23
- The jumpman logo
Two different low-top colors were also released to the public. These without the hologram.So much to the disappointment of many.
