Step into history with the Nike Air Max 1 ’87 Premium University of Oregon PE (2024), a limited-edition release celebrating the University of Oregon’s athletic legacy. This exclusive collaboration, designed in partnership with Ducks of a Feather, a sports gear company driven by U of O athlete feedback, offers a unique blend of style and performance.
The shoe boasts a captivating upper constructed from iridescent textiles, showcasing a rich brown at the toe box that transitions to a vibrant green at the collar. Perforated tan leather overlays add texture to the quarter panel, while a striking white and gray leopard print accents the eyestays, creating a visually stunning contrast. Beige suede forms the mudguard, and a mottled brown suede heel counter completes the premium look.
The iconic Nike Swoosh, rendered in a deep blue, is mirrored by a miniature embroidered version on the lateral toecap, adding a subtle yet sophisticated detail. The comfortable off-white Phylon midsole houses the visible Air unit, providing superior cushioning, and rests atop a stylish tan and off-white rubber outsole. A truly special touch is found in the gold embroidered motto on the heel tabs: “ONCE A DUCK, ALWAYS A DUCK,” a testament to the enduring spirit of Oregon Ducks.
This Nike Air Max 1 ’87 Premium represents a perfect fusion of iconic design and collegiate pride, making it a must-have for sneaker collectors and Oregon Ducks fans alike. Its intricate details and luxurious materials guarantee a premium wearing experience.
