The Air Jordan 13 Retro "Playoffs" (Style Code: 414571-062) is a highly sought-after sneaker originally worn by Michael Jordan during the 1998 NBA All-Star Game and throughout the 1998 postseason run to his sixth championship.
The version with style code 414571-062 specifically denotes the 2023 retro release, which faithfully honors the 25th anniversary of the original design. It features a premium black dimpled leather upper, slick suede overlays, the iconic holographic eye near the ankle collar, and a striking yellow circle around the red Jumpman logo on the tongue.
The Air Jordan 13 "Playoffs" holds a legendary status in sneaker history, famously worn by Michael Jordan during his historic 1997–1998 "Last Dance" season with the Chicago Bulls.
1998: The Debut
Michael Jordan first debuted this specific colorway at the 1998 NBA All-Star Game in New York City, where he took home the All-Star Game MVP award. He then wore them heavily during the 1998 NBA Playoffs as he marched toward his sixth and final championship ring.
Panther-Inspired Design
Designed by the legendary Tinker Hatfield, the Air Jordan 13 drew direct inspiration from Jordan's alter-ego on the court: the "Black Cat."
- The Hologram: The green circular gem on the heel mimics a panther's glowing eye in the dark.
- The Sole: The unique, segmented outsole is shaped precisely like a panther's paw print to provide ultimate traction and agility.
- The Upper: The dimpled leather panels represent a panther's sleek whiskers and stealthy texture.
The Retro Timeline
While the original model dropped in 1998, Nike and Jordan Brand have only re-released this exact colorway a handful of times to preserve its exclusivity:
- 2011: The first official retro release, which brought the classic black, red, and yellow-accented shoe back to a new generation of fans.
- 2023 (Style Code 414571-062): Released in February 2023 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the silhouette. This version was highly praised by collectors for its true-to-the-original shape, premium leather cuts, and exact color specifications matching the 1998 pair.
