Following the reveal of a Gatorade colorway, Jordan Brand recently revealed a Carolina Tar Heel blue Air Jordan 6. Paying tribute to Michael Jordan’s alma mater, the “UNC” colorway is just the latest in a recent string of University of North Carolina-inspired Air Jordan releases. The upcoming AJ6 “UNC” features a black suede upper — accented by a Tar Heel blue lace lock and matching branding. A hit of blue on the midsole and heel stripe combined with a white translucent icy outsole finishes off the design of the shoe. Retailing at $190 USD, the Air Jordan 6 “UNC” is set to release December 2 at Nike’s web store and at select Jordan Brand retailers.
