The University of Oregon, as the school that both Nike co-founders Phil Knight and Bill Bowerman attended, has been the recipient of countless special Nike creations over the years. From its unique football kits to Air Jordan PEs, there’s no shortage of Duck-themed apparel and footwear. Recently, several releases have been presented by the school’s Ducks of a Feather (DOAF) program — a brand by and for University of Oregon student-athletes.
As the 2024-25 school year nears, a sneak peek at what’s next from DOAF has emerged, and it’s one that Duck fans won’t want to miss. Three “What The Duck” takes on the Dunk Low have been assembled in a limited quantity of 5,000 pairs, according to masterchefian, who has shared images of two of the colorways. Drawing inspiration from 2007’s legendary SB Dunk Low “What The Dunk,” both previewed designs sport mash-ups of UofO-themed panels that vary between the left and right shoes, with a “DOAF” hit at the left shoe’s heel and right shoe’s tongue giving a nod to the program’s involvement.
At the time of writing, neither Nike nor the University of Oregon have shared any release details regarding their three-part collection of “What The Duck” Dunk Lows. Stay tuned for updates, including an initial preview of the rumored third pair, as we expect all three versions of the shoe to drop via Ducks of a Feather.
