Nike and the University of Oregon’s Division St. initiative are bringing their “What The Duck” Dunk series to an exciting close with the release of the all-black “Alternate” edition. This sleek pair rounds out the trio, following the Home and Away-themed versions launched earlier this year.
What Makes the “What The Duck Alternate” Special?
The “What The Duck Alternate” Dunks stand out for their clean and sophisticated all-black design, inspired by Oregon alumnus and Nike co-founder Phil Knight’s signature wardrobe style.
Despite the monochromatic look, the shoes are packed with details that reflect the series’ premium craftsmanship:
- Duck Feather Texture: The uppers feature a unique texture resembling duck feathers, paying homage to the Oregon Ducks.
- Metal-Plated Heel: A shiny, luxurious metal plate adds a bold accent to the heel.
- Mascot Hang-Tag: The playful Oregon Duck mascot hang-tag returns as a signature detail of the series.
This “Alternate” version is also labeled as a “Luxe” trim, which means it takes the premium feel of the previous releases to the next level.
A Look Back at the “What The Duck” Series
The first two “What The Duck” Dunks celebrated Oregon’s football history by showcasing an eclectic mix of colors, patterns, and textures inspired by the team’s Home and Away jerseys. In contrast, the Alternate edition opts for a minimalist aesthetic, offering a versatile design that still honors Oregon’s legacy.
