The University of North Carolina (UNC) Football team is gearing up for the 2024 college football season with yet another exclusive player edition (PE) release. Following the reveal of their Air Jordan 3 PE, UNC Football has now unveiled the latest addition to their custom footwear lineup: the Air Jordan 1 Low Cleat PE. These cleats, which are reserved exclusively for UNC Football players and staff, are a testament to the longstanding relationship between the university and Jordan Brand, both rooted in their shared history with Michael Jordan.

The Air Jordan 1 Low Cleat PE sports a colorway that is quintessentially “Tar Heel.” The upper features a clean white base, accented by a striking University Blue overlay that nods to UNC’s iconic colors. The cleat is adorned with a speckled, paint-splatter effect on the Swoosh and heel, adding a unique flair to the otherwise classic design. The Air Jordan Wings logo is prominently displayed on the heel, maintaining the heritage of the Jordan 1 while adapting it for the gridiron.

This cleat is not just about aesthetics; it’s designed for performance on the football field. The cleated sole offers optimal traction, making it perfect for the rigorous demands of college football. However, despite its performance capabilities, the Air Jordan 1 Low Cleat PE retains the lifestyle appeal that makes it a coveted piece among sneakerheads.

Unfortunately for fans, these cleats will not be available for retail purchase. They are part of a special collection made exclusively for the UNC Football program, further solidifying the exclusivity and prestige associated with being part of the Tar Heels squad. As with previous UNC PEs, the Air Jordan 1 Low Cleat will likely become a sought-after item among collectors and Jordan Brand enthusiasts, but only a select few will ever get their hands on a pair.

As the 2024 season approaches, these cleats will undoubtedly add a layer of style and pride to the Tar Heels’ on-field performance, continuing the tradition of excellence that both Jordan Brand and UNC Football are known for.
