The UNC and Jordan Brand partnership is second to none. Jordan’s alma mater is highly regarded in sneakerhead culture thanks to coveted player exclusives and unique colorways that tell the story of his Airness during his collegiate days.
The University of North Carolina’s football team recently showcased an exclusive Air Jordan 5 perfect for Tar Heel nation. The AJ5 is dressed in a Carolina blue upper covered in classic elephant print. The pair also features a navy suede tongue with embroidered UNC logos, speckled shark teeth overlays on the white midsole, and is finished off with an icy outsole and the iconic Nike Air on the heel.
