Celebrating two iconic silhouette that Michael Jordan wore early in his career. It includes the charity-inspired Air Jordan 2 “Alumni Game” PE and the Converse Fastbreak Mid. Both are dressed in UNC-themed colors as a nod to when MJ wore them during the mid-80s.
Before Jordan Brand came around, Michael Jordan wore Converse throughout his college career. During the 1984 Olympics, MJ laced-up the Fastbreak Mid. After being drafted by the Chicago Bulls, MJ participated in the Carolina Pro Alumni basketball game for charity wearing a UNC-themed Air Jordan 2 PE.
