The Air Jordan 5 Retro 'Black University Blue' (2026) brings back a fan favourite after a two-decade wait. Known to collectors as the 'Black Carolina' or 'UNC', this colourway first appeared in 2006 and pays tribute to Michael Jordan's alma mater, the University of North Carolina. Its return on 20 June 2026 marked one of the most anticipated Jordan Brand retros of the year, released in full-family sizing.
Overview
Presented in the official Black/University Blue-White colourway under style code DD0587-008, the 2026 retro stays remarkably faithful to the original. A rich black nubuck upper anchors the design, offset by University Blue hits across the midsole's signature shark-tooth graphic and tongue detailing. Tinker Hatfield's fighter-jet-inspired design language remains intact throughout: the reflective 3M tongue, lace-lock system, visible Air cushioning in the heel and translucent outsole elements all carry through. The stealthy black base with collegiate blue contrast makes it one of the most wearable Air Jordan 5 colourways ever produced, sliding effortlessly into everyday rotations. Every pair is authenticated by hand at PUSHAS, so you can shop with confidence.
Key Highlights
• 20-Year Return: The first retro of this colourway since its 2006 debut, giving a new generation access to a genuine collector's grail.
• UNC Heritage: University Blue accents honour Michael Jordan's college roots at North Carolina, a storyline that runs through Jordan Brand's most coveted releases.
• Premium Black Nubuck: A plush, stealthy upper elevates the aggressive AJ5 silhouette with a refined, versatile finish.
• Signature AJ5 DNA: Reflective tongue, shark-tooth midsole, lace locks and visible Air cushioning preserve Tinker Hatfield's iconic 1990 design.
