Re: 1997-98 Game Worn Shoes (Air Jordan XIII) - Michael Jordan

Im still learning and the codes are not universal, some of the earlier years have different things to look for

but for your shoes

the 98 means they are from 1998

0103 means they were made Jan 3...so they would have been used second half of the season

Y3 means they are promo/player samples

mb23 knows way more than i do...so correct me if i am wrong

Thanks for all the help. My Jordan shoes

97-98 look as follows

MADE IN CHINA
980103 Y3

Sorry those are name game issued. That model should be coded exactly like the pair in this thread 339069 Y3 or if a different color way should still be 33.... y3.

Worldchamps is right there is not alot of method to the codes especially the earlier years. Ive saved and catologed 1000's of images and I research daily.

I contacted the auction house where I purchased the shoes. They offered to have the shoes sent to Mears or Grey Flannel for a third party authenticator to resolve.

They don't necessary elieve the coding theory.

They can send it where ever they want. That shoe is a general release coded
shoe. I have seen every colorway and have 4 of them all coded begining with 33.... Trust me they are not gamers or game issued.

Thanks for all your help. We will see how this plays out.

I don't consider myself an expert or an authenticator. I do say that all I collect is Michael Jordan and have done so much research on this for my own knowledge and collection that I feel 100% positive in saying I know more on this matter then almost every auction house out there. I am not saying that all auction houses are wrong but sometimes they do not do the proper research before selling an item and just see a real signature and a matching sz. and automatically deem the item a gamer, regardless of coding.
