Jordan Brand reportedly has a few more Player Exclusive Air Jordans heading to retailers in 2020, including the classic UNC Tar Heels Air Jordan 3. According to sneaker source @Zsneakerheadz, the special edition 3s are expected to launch in time for the annual March Madness tournament.

The kicks in question have not yet surfaced, but rumors suggest they will resemble the special edition 3s that were issued to the Tar Heels Football and Basketball teams in 2018.
