A month after the rumor mill unearthed news of OFF-WHITE’s Nike Air Jordan 1 ‘UNC’, design mogul Virgil Abloh finally flaunted the silhouette at the 2018 Met Gala.

The newly-minted Louis Vuitton menswear designer stepped up to the red carpet occasion with Kendall Jenner, as he showed off the white and blue do-over of Nike’s ‘University of North Carolina’ (UFC) variety.

The sneakers, of course, have received the “Abloh” treatment, and feature the phrase “for red carpet only” written in orange on the left side.

The OFF-WHITE x Air Jordan 1 ‘UNC’ is slated for release on 9 June 2018. Sneak a peek below.
