Jordan Brand‘s latest hybrid silhouette, the Jordan MVP is arriving in one of the label’s most popular colorways. The MVP, which takes design notes from the Air Jordan 6, 7 and 8, celebrates the legend, Michael Jordan‘s first three-peat between 1991 and 1993. This time around, the new color scheme pays homage to Jordan’s own college days in the Black and University Blue mix.

The shoe gives a nod to the Air Jordan 6 released in 2017 and features an all-black nubuck upper. Additional University Blue accents are contrasting throughout the shoe along the tongues, inner lining, lateral Jumpman logo on the heel collar, as well as parts of the midsole and “Nike Air” branding. The shoe features an icy translucent outsole while the lateral panel features white and blue paint stroke-like patterns. The shoe sits atop a black rubber outsole and a university blue Jumpman logo on the underfoot to round out the design.

Look out for the Jordan MVP “UNC” arriving in the coming months at select Jordan Brand retailers and on Nike for $165 USD.
