Following the implementation of Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) rules in collegiate sports, Division Street was established by University of Oregon alumni with the mission to empower student-athletes in light of the NCAA’s evolving landscape. Over the past few years, the Ducks of a Feather initiative by this organization has opened up additional income opportunities for athletes in Eugene by offering exclusive Duck-themed footwear to the public. The latest addition to this line is a pristine white Air Force 1 Low, set to launch later this week.
Continuing the tradition of exclusivity, just 1,000 pairs of the Bruce Kilgore-designed shoes will be made available. These sneakers feature a nearly all-white design on the smooth leather upper with eye-catching metallic chrome accents on the eyelets, and the midsole sporting a subtle “Sail” hue. Drawing inspiration from the University’s football program, the shoe incorporates grassy suede patches on the swooshes along the sides, the upper tongue, and the “O” embellished heel counter. To contrast the predominantly white appearance, a gray tread pattern covers the outsole, and various Ducks of a Feather branding elements can be found on the cork insoles, debossed hang tags, and dubraes.
As per Division Street, the special edition Nike Air Force 1 Low “Ducks of a Feather” will be exclusively available on the GOAT app for a retail price of $175 on October 20th, with just 1,000 pairs up for grabs.
In other news, the release of the adidas Spider-Man 2 is scheduled for the following week.
