This new rendition of the original Peter Moore design keeps his spirit alive with a smooth white leather base that you'll only see on the side panels. Spread across the shoe are black and University Blue overlays.
You'll notice black overlays around the toe, eyestays and collar. These match the black laces. Meanwhile, the ventilated vamp, ankle and heel are all University Blue.
Branding on the shoe is mostly black, with a black Swoosh wrapping around both sides of the shoe, as well as the original Air Jordan Wings logo (which was inspired by MJ's ability to take flight) on the lateral ankle. However, there is University Blue Nike Air branding on the black nylon tongue and black insole.
To finish off the shoe, you'll see a standard white midsole mated to a University Blue rubber outsole.
As with most original Jordan kicks, these shoes are best worn on the streets now. Pair yours with dark denim and your favorite vintage His Airness jersey to look like you can ball with the rest of them.
It's never too early to instill a love of University Blue into your kids — or to indulge in some UNC tributes yourself. Grab the Jordan 1 Retro High OG in University Blue in men's, grade school kids', preschool kids', toddler kids' and infant sizes on July 22, online or at your local Hibbett | City Gear.
