The Air Jordan 8 holds a lot of sentimental significance to sneakerheads and collectors. It first released in 1993—the year of MJ's "three-peat" championship season. The AJ XIII is also distinguished for being the last shoe Michael Jordan wore before his first retirement.
Created by the legendary designer Tinker Hatfield, the Air Jordan 8 initially released at a retail price of $125. Highly sought-after models that carry significant resale values include the Air Jordan 8 Retro DB Doernbecher colorway ($400 to $1,200), the OVO collection ($350 to $500) and the coveted Air Jordan 8 PE series that can fetch anywhere from 2,500 to over $10,000.
Other noteworthy, collectable styles include the Jordan 8 Retro in Champagne and Bugs Bunny colorways, which resale for around $225 to $500 and $200 to $450, respectively.
