Better Air Jordan 5: “Oregon” or “UNC”

With March Madness set to tip-off, we take a look at two popular college-inspired Air Jordan 5 colorways nodding to the Oregon Ducks and UNC.

During September 2020, the Air Jordan 5 “Oregon” was released in a distinctive color scheme paying tribute to the Oregon Ducks. Like the PE edition, the shoe features a Green suede upper with a Team Jordan woven tag on the heel and contrasting Black hits on the eyelets, tongue and quarter panel netting. Other details includes a reflective tongue, “Elevate” sewn onto the inner tongue atop an icy outsole.

Released in March 2023, the Air Jordan 5 “UNC” nods to Michael Jordan’s alma mater, University of North Carolina. It features a University Blue nubuck leather upper with Silver 3M reflective tongues and collegiate patch on the heels. “Heart” and “Soul” wording behind the tongues atop a Black midsole with shark-teeth details and icy translucent outsole completes the design.
