FAQs

What does 'UNC' stand for on these sneakers?

UNC stands for the University of North Carolina, Michael Jordan's alma mater. The colors and design elements are inspired by the university's athletic program.

What materials are the Air Jordan 6 Retro UNC White made of?

The sneakers are primarily constructed with a combination of premium leather and University Blue Durabuck, with navy blue accents.

How should I clean the icy sole?

Wipe the icy sole with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For yellowing, specialized sole brighteners can be used cautiously.

Are these sneakers suitable for athletic performance?

While they offer cushioning, these are primarily designed as lifestyle sneakers for casual wear rather than high-intensity athletic performance.

What was the original release date and price?

The Air Jordan 6 Retro UNC White was released in March 2022 and originally retailed for $210.

Can I wear these in wet conditions?

It is not recommended to wear these in wet conditions, especially the Durabuck material and the icy sole, to prevent damage and discoloration.

Troubleshooting

Sole turning yellow

The icy sole can naturally yellow over time. Specialized sole brighteners can help reverse this, but use with caution and follow product instructions. Proper storage away from light also helps prevent yellowing.

Durabuck material looks dirty

Use a soft brush or a specialized suede cleaner specifically designed for nubuck or Durabuck. Avoid excessive moisture.

Creasing on the leather

Creasing is natural with wear. To minimize it, use shoe trees when not wearing the sneakers and avoid overly tight lacing.
