College athletic programs that have the luxury of being sponsored by Jordan Brand will often get treated every year with special player edition sneakers inspired by their own respective institution’s colors. And this year, the University of North Carolina Tar Heels football program is being blessed with a fresh Air Jordan 6 “UNC” PE that is crafted with special details.

To piggy back off of the design of the Air Jordan 5 makeup that the gridiron gang received in 2021, the folks over at Jordan styled this latest iteration with a similar presentation. Upper sections are brought to life with leather overlays and side panels, all of which are fittingly clad in “University Blue.” Chenille-infused patches stand out on each shoe, the right side featuring a “23” hit while the left is adorned with a Jumpman logo. The official UNC logo also gets to show face here as it arrives atop the lace toggles as well as the heels in embroidered fashion. Tongues and heel pieces are tinted with a lighter gray hue and dark navy accents accompany via the former’s trimming as well as on the midsole molds.

Check out an in-depth look at the pair above and note that these will not be releasing to the public.
