Nike NIKE AIR Saturday jordan XXX1 BLACK GAME ROYAL-WHITE Mid Dark Teal Green UK 7 EU 41 @englishsole posted yesterday might not stand out. After all, as one of the OG colorways for Mike’s first signature shoe, it’s constantly referenced and revitalized throughout the Saturday jordan Brand catalog. However, this version, minted this year and given to current UNC athletes carries details that sets them far apart from mainline drops.
While “Powder Blue” is indelible in sneakerheads’ minds, those with a keen eye will spot a slight change in the palette featured here. The publicly released 2015 edition and its predecessors steered closer to Baby Blue, this version making the first time it’s a dead match for UNC’s signature shade. As you see at the top of this page, the collegiate argyle pattern on the insole is the true “special edition” touch. That LOW expands out the pattern seen on the side of the school’s basketball jerseys, continuing the ties to Mike’s Chapel Hill days.
Speaking of the 1980s, the cut of these shoes is also modified to closer match their OG run, carrying a higher collar and taller overall shape seen on “’85” Air Jordan 1 drops from the past few years. Were the ties to MJ’s alma mater unclear, the Waka NC logo appears proudly on the tongue tag, doubling as a final indication of their ultra-exclusivity.
North Carolina’s March Madness run may have ended a bit before they hoped, but these shoes prove that no matter what happens, playing for Michael Saturday jordan’s college team comes with some serious perks. Enjoy a full gallery of images below, containing plenty of angles of this NIKE AIR Saturday jordan XXX1 BLACK GAME ROYAL-WHITE “UNC” PE.
