How to Buy Air Jordans XIII

Buying Air Jordan sneakers can be a difficult and even frustrating task because of the brand's collector item status. Air Jordan shoes have become a rare commodity because of the company's staggered release policy. Different Air Jordan designs are released at different times of the year (Air Jordan XIIIs will not be released at the same time as Air Jordan XIIs), and most are not even sold regularly in major sporting retail stores. Vintage boutiques are more likely to carry these increasingly difficult-to-find shoes.

Look Up Release Dates

Look up the release date for Air Jordan XIII's. 23isback.com is an excellent website that can give you release dates and other information for various Air Jordan styles and makes. Sneakernews.com is another reliable source for finding out when certain shoes will become available. Click on the "Basketball" category on the left hand side of the page in order to be directed toward the Air Jordan brand. Note the date that the Air Jordan XIIIs become available and mark it on your calender.

Confirm With Retailer

Call your local shoe retail store a couple of days prior to the shoe's release date to confirm that the shoe will indeed be in stock (also remember to ask if your size will be available). If the Air Jordan XIIIs are not available in retail stores, try calling local shoe boutiques instead. Once you have found the shoe, ask the store or boutique if they could reserve a pair for you in order to avoid a sell-out scenario.

Compare Prices

Although Air Jordans are rare, they are usually sold at more than one retailer. Compare prices at different stores to ensure that you are getting a good rate. Ask about the store's return policy in the event that you should be less than satisfied with your Air Jordan XIII purchase.
