Air Jordan 3 “Tar Heels” by Mache Customs

by Jumpmankicks on May 31, 2015 at 9:03 pm
Posted In: Air Jordan

Mache Customs pays tribute to MJ’s roots with this new UNC-inspired Air Jordan 3 custom. Using the “Powder Blue” colorway as a base, the sneaker’s suede upper was repainted to match UNC blue, elephant print included. The midsole has received a Tar Heel diamond print pattern, similar to that seen on the Air Jordan 4 UNC Player exclusives from 2013. Finally, the Jumpman logo was replaced in favor of North Carolina’s Tar Heel emblem. Most likely this pair is a one-off, but if you’d like to commission Mache Customs to create a similar pair for you, visit their site here for contact info.

The University of North Carolina Tar Heels didn’t make it to the NCAA Championship this year, but they’re still winners in the eyes of many, including the folks at Jordan Brand. They created this special player exclusive for the team, which sports a University Blue and navy base overlaid with a print of UNC’s mascot. The tognue logo has been embroidered in a bright white, with finishing touches provided via Midnight Navy midsole. This sneaker won’t see a public release, so your chances of obtaining a pair are slim to none.
