The Drop
The Jordan 1 Low OG Obsidian UNC (CZ0790-400) brings that classic Carolina Blue energy in a low-top silhouette—leather construction, white base, obsidian overlays, and the signature UNC blue Swoosh that nods to MJ's college days. It's not a headline-grabbing collab, but the OG Low treatment and Tar Heel colorblocking give it staying power beyond just seasonal hype. Think of it as the wearable younger sibling of the High OG UNC releases.
Resell Verdict
Fair market value sits around $124, with recent asks ranging from $85 to $270 depending on size and condition. With 227 weekly orders, there's consistent flip activity—not explosive gains, but steady demand from UNC fans and Jordan 1 Low collectors. Resell trajectory is stable; diese sind keine Grails, aber solid movers if you cop under retail or on sale. Profit margins are modest, better suited for volume plays than one-off flips.
Fake Tells
- ▸Toebox perforations should be clean and evenly spaced—reps often show sloppy punching
- ▸Heel embossing (Wings logo or Jumpman) must be sharp, not shallow or misaligned
- ▸Box label barcode and font weight—fakes commonly use incorrect SKU formatting or blurry print
Who It's For
Perfect for the casual reseller chasing consistent $20–40 margins and sneakerheads who actually wear their pairs. Best rocked with denim or summer fits where the UNC blue pops without trying too hard.
Sizing & Fit
Jordan 1 Lows typically run true to size. Some wearers with wider feet go up half a size for comfort on longer wear days.
