Jordan Brand drew inspiration from Michael Jordan's alma mater, the University of North Carolina, for the Air Jordan 6 Retro UNC White. Constructed with University Blue Durabuck and white leather, the Air Jordan 6 Retro UNC White utilizes color blocking reminiscent of the renowned Jordan 6 Carmine. Hits of navy blue on the tongue and midsole integrate UNC's lesser known school color. At the heel, a Jordan Team patch nod to the jock tags that are stitched to the bottom of UNC's uniforms. From there, an icy semi-translucent Air sole completes the design.
