Sneaker culture’s love for “University Blue” has yet to die, and shows no signs of doing so anytime soon. And this is thanks largely in part to Jordan Brand, who are often using the UNC signature across their vast catalog of classics.
Here, the color appears once again on the Air Jordan 1 Mid, dressing not only the shoe’s Swoosh and branding but also its textile collar, outsole, and various overlays. The heel, in slight contrast, opts for a grey suede, balancing out the bright cool tone in tandem with the white neutrals that appear through the base, midsole, laces, and mesh-constructed tongue.
For an official look at this newest “University Blue” AJ1 Mid, see below. A release date has not been announced just yet, but it should be hitting Nike.com and select retailers before the end of the year.
