Jordan Brand Will Reimagine The Air Jordan 1 “UNC” Next Year

2025 could be the year of the grails for Jordan Brand. Between retro rumors of an Undefeated Air Jordan 4 and ’85 Bred Air Jordan 1, the next calendar year is looking stacked. The latest leak suggests the University of North Carolina Air Jordan 1 will get the Reimagined treatment. According to Sneaker Files and zSneakerheadz, the OG AJ1 colorway inspired by Michael Jordan’s alma mater will be released next summer. Full details have not been leaked, but all signs point towards an aged look similar to the popular “Lost and Found” AJ1 from 2022.

The 1985 “UNC” Air Jordan 1 started the trend of dressing MJ’s kicks in his alma mater’s popular powder blue and white colorway. Over the years, we’ve seen countless Air Jordans rep that Tarhills, including a patent leather Air Jordan 1 in 2003, Off-White x AJ1 in 2018, and Eric Koston x Nike SB x AJ1 Low in 2018. You can find pairs of last year’s “UNC Toe” AJ1 for below retail on the free COLLECT By SoleSavy app.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
