The Jordan 1 Retro High OG UNC Toe, released in July 2023, pays tribute to Michael Jordan’s alma mater through a striking mix of classic colour blocks. This edition features a premium leather upper, including university blue on the toe box and heel, contrasted by black overlays and Swoosh for bold visual impact. White side panels and a white midsole round out the palette, delivering a fresh yet nostalgic look reminiscent of the original 1985 silhouette.
The design includes meticulously embossed Wings logos, tumbled leather finishes, and a nylon tongue with Nike Air branding for a refined vintage feel. A university blue rubber outsole completes the look, ensuring exceptional grip and durability with every step.
Blending iconic history and contemporary taste, the UNC Toe stands as a versatile and essential artifact for collectors, seamlessly uniting basketball heritage with streetwear culture.
Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity of your sneakers, we recommend a considered approach to their care. Regular maintenance is key to preserving their aesthetic integrity and material quality.
- General Care: For leather and synthetic uppers, gently wipe away dirt with a soft, damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution. Laces can be hand-washed separately. Allow the sneakers to air-dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight, to maintain the structure and quality of the materials.
- Suede & Nubuck: These delicate materials require specific attention. Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt, always brushing in the same direction. For stubborn marks, a specialist suede eraser is recommended. Avoid water, as it can stain and alter the texture. To protect against the elements, a light application of a waterproofing spray designed for suede can be beneficial.
