Jordan Brand will have multiple color options of the Air Jordan 17 Low available in 2024. The shoes were originally released in 2002, and Michael Jordan wore them while playing for the Washington Wizards. One of the original colorways will be making a return next year, the Air Jordan 17 Low “University Blue”, aka “UNC” and “Carolina,” a tribute to Michael Jordan’s alma mater.
This Air Jordan 17 Low was originally released in June 2002, had a retail price of $150, and was known as “Carolina.” Furthermore, you could have obtained the shoes for less, since they went on sale. The low-top iteration never came with a briefcase like its mid-top counterpart, but they were packaged with dust bags. For 2024, it isn’t confirmed if the shoes will come with dust bags.
