Air Jordan 6 Retro ‘UNC’

The Air Jordan 6 Retro ‘UNC’, released in December 2017, pays tribute to Michael Jordan’s alma mater, the University of North Carolina (UNC), and their 2017 NCAA Championship win. The upper is predominantly crafted from black nubuck, providing a sleek, premium feel and a durable finish. The defining feature of this colorway is the vibrant University Blue accents that pop against the black background. This bright blue hue is prominently displayed on the tongue, the Jumpman logo, the lacelock, the back pull tab, and parts of the midsole. The shoe also comes with translucent rubber on the outsole, which often has an icy blue tint, adding a cool contrast and revealing the Jumpman logo underneath. The Air Jordan 6 silhouette itself is notable for its sleek design, inspired by Michael Jordan’s German sports car, and was the shoe he wore when he won his first NBA Championship.

This iconic sneaker holds significant cultural relevance, connecting to Michael Jordan’s collegiate roots and the shoe’s enduring legacy. It is ideal for dedicated Air Jordan collectors, UNC fans, basketball enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates a timeless design with a powerful historical narrative. Its durable construction and comfortable cushioning make it suitable for everyday casual wear, easily complementing a wide range of streetwear and sporty outfits. It’s a perfect choice for those who want to own a piece of sneaker history with a collegiate twist.
