Following All-Star Weekend drops and last week's "Pine Green" Air Jordan 1 release, Nike keeps the 2020 wave of Jordan sneakers coming, this time with the Nike Air Jordan 3 “UNC." This is a colorway originally created as a Player Exclusive model, gifted to the athletes and staff at the University of North Carolina. As one of the OG 1985 colorways, it's one with history for Jordan fans, and therefore likely one that's now hard to get hold of following general release. However, it's shoppable at StockX now.

The public release of the Nike Air Jordan 3 "UNC" bears a very similar appearance to that of the PE iteration, except for the omission of the embroidered UNC logo, which has been replaced with the signature Jumpman logo here. The iconic elephant print dresses toe and heel elements of the shoe, which comes with a white tumbled leather upper, while a special insole tag paying homage to MJ's career lies inside.

StockX market data shows the "UNC" shoe has reached a 52-week high sale price of around $550. However, it's currently selling for only slightly more than retail, at an average of $248, making it a good time to shop ahead of the general release rush.
