The return of a certified classic is officially on the horizon. The iconic Air Jordan 13 ‘Flint’ is set to make its long-awaited comeback in Summer 2026, bringing back one of the most beloved original colorways in Jordan Brand history.
Originally released in 1998, the “Flint” XIII has become a grail-level sneaker for many collectors thanks to its clean mix of navy reflective mesh, Flint Grey suede overlays, crisp white leather, and subtle University Blue accents. According to early reports, the 2026 version is expected to stay extremely faithful to the 2020 retro, even sharing the same style code — a strong indication Jordan Brand isn’t tampering with the formula.
What continues to make the “Flint” XIII special is its versatility. The cool-toned palette gives the shoe a premium lifestyle feel while still carrying the aggressive performance DNA of the Air Jordan XIII silhouette. The reflective quilted mesh panels, holographic “cat eye,” and panther-inspired outsole remain some of the most recognizable design elements in the Air Jordan line.
Current reports point to an August 1, 2026 release date with a retail price of $215. The sneaker is expected to release in full family sizing via Nike and select Jordan Brand retailers.
