The Oregon Ducks are two games away from what’d be a crowning achievement on an already-stellar season. However close the Natty may be, there are some serious hurdles standing between the Ducks and ultimate glory, beginning with Fernando Mendoza and his Indiana Hoosiers.

As the Peach Bowl approaches, the Oregon Ducks are doing what they do best (or second best, maybe): flexing exclusive Nike gear. Phil Knight’s alma mater is left never wanting for eye-catching wear, and this is no different, as the program took to socials to reveal the Nike Air Force 1 “Orchard” Premium. Coated comprehensively in trademark green, as its title suggests, part of what makes this pair a cut above is the materiality, utilizing textured leathers seen on the heel and luxe nubuck that graces the overlays.

For more team-specific flair, the university’s avian mascot sits embossed on the heel, and two-tone rope laces add some extra trendy flair to the lifestyle icon. Notably, this arrangement mirrors what the Ducks already broke out during the regular season, carrying many of the hallmarks from a previously-seen all-black.

As with most of Oregon’s more attention-grabbing fare, the Nike Air Force 1 Low “Orchard” Premium will likely remain exclusive to the school’s athletes and not see a wide launch. However, we can’t ignore that the PE-to-public pipeline is stronger than ever, so keep our coverage close by should any info to the contrary trickle out.
