A fresh in-hand look reveals all the details.

The Air Jordan 1 High OG "UNC Reimagined" is gearing up for its release, and a new in-hand look gives fans a closer view of the details. This pair celebrates Michael Jordan’s college legacy with a clean white leather base and bold University Blue overlays. What makes this edition stand out is the cracked leather finish, similar to the popular "Lost and Found" release, adding a worn-in, vintage vibe. The blend of classic Tar Heel colors with aged textures creates a fresh take on a timeless design. With its high-top silhouette, it delivers both nostalgia and everyday wearability.

The familiar white and blue color scheme stays true to Jordan Brand’s roots, while the cracked leather brings an old-school aesthetic. To make things even more special, this pair will come in unique packaging, an Orange and White box with a Black and Red lid, switching up the usual Jordan 1 presentation.

Whether you’re into retro designs or just love a clean Jordan 1, the "UNC Reimagined" is a must-have addition to any rotation.
