These cleats could be reselling for thousands in a few years.

Jordan Brand is sending out the Air Jordan 12 PE Cleat in a "UNC" colorway to the UNC football team. The cleats will not be available to the public, but PE sneakers have resold for unimaginable amounts in the past. The Oregon Ducks' PE sneakers resell for thousands of dollars, for example. These cleats will be sent out to the players on the team, with maybe a few extra pairs. Other than that, the general public will be out of luck and will have to watch the cleats in action.

The UNC colorway from Jordan Brand is known for its light blue and white combo. It draws inspiration from the colors of the University of North Carolina. This color scheme has become iconic in the sneaker world, appreciated by fans of both basketball and street style. The UNC colorway from Jordan Brand features a light blue and white combination, paying homage to the University of North Carolina's signature colors. These shades hold special significance as they reflect the alma mater of basketball legend Michael Jordan. The iconic color scheme has garnered a dedicated following, celebrating both Jordan's legacy and a stylish look.
