When the Air Jordan ‘History of Flight’ collection was first unveiled by the Jordan Brand for every sneakerhead to see, it was mostly a dream that was out of reach. The models all beginning from I to 2009 were clad in an attractive colorway of white and university red and left fans drooling, but they were not made available for purchase. For quite some time, that remained unchanged. But in 2017, the Jordan Brand released the Air Jordan 13 Retro “History of Flight”, exciting dedicated fans and hypebeasts around the world.

Release date: July 22, 2017

The Air Jordan 13 “History of Flight” was the first from the collection to see a general release. As with other models, it showed the simple and familiar color scheme and quickly became the hottest kicks following the announcement. The shoes are mostly in white tumbled leather with hints of red as well as black on the sole. They are also decorated with the Jumpman branding and the traditional hologram on the sides.

Pros

The Air Jordan 13 Retro “History Of Flight” employs a simple but undoubtedly fresh aesthetic as the red really pops from the mostly white sneakers. The white part, made in leather, is not to be overlooked, however. The quality is very consistent and the leather even feels buttery, although it is not the most incredible available. These are sold with extra white laces if you feel that the black usually on display does nothing special for you. The sneakers offer not only style but also comfort, especially with its sock lining, and fit true to size. If you have a younger fan in the family, the shoes are available in sizes all the way down to that of toddlers’.

Cons

As with other white shoes, the Air Jordan 13 Retro “History Of Flight” runs the possibility of turning yellow quickly with more use. Given how much these are wanted back when fans first laid eyes on them, acquiring them will not be the easiest thing to do, too.
