Elliot Santiago After being spotlighted aplenty throughout the recent NBA All-Star Weekend events through its “UNITE” and special “Nike Air CHI” renditions, the Air Jordan 3 is ready to move forward to its next initiative. Scheduled to kick off next month is this brand new makeover inspired by His Airness’ University of North Carolina alma mater, which perhaps is an intentional move on Beaverton’s part considering the timing of this release aligns with the spirit of the impending tournament brackets of March Madness. The shoes themselves are left to a tastefully clean palette as most of its original constructions are left untouched to a clean white, which indeed pave the way for the Tar Heel Nation “Valor Blue” accents to be overtly noticed as they outfit the tongue logos, heel molds, and heightened lace loops. Although these will not be featuring the desired “Nike Air” heel branding that Jordan purists have come to know and love, the elephant prints are kept to their traditional greys for a touch of classical element. Peep a gallery of official images here below, and expect these to be dropping on Nike.com on March 7th for $190 USD.
