Heads Up: Nike Doernbecher Freestyle Release

As you’re probably aware, every year for six years now Nike gets together with Doernbecher Children’s Hospital in Portland to have several Doernbecher patients design their own Nike shoe. The shoe gets a proper release and the profits go to benefit Doernbecher. Well the children have been tapped and the shoes designed and the Doernbecher Freestyle footwear is set to release tomorrow, November 14th. The children and footwear selection are as follows, courtesy of Nike:

Bradley Bowlby, 11, (Stevenson, Washington): Nike Air Force 1 Low
Bradley’s desire to get dirty in style is reflected with a custom camouflage design featured on the outsole and upper.

Collin Callsen, 11, (Stayton, Oregon): Nike P-ROD 3 Skate Shoe
Collin’s playful attitude comes through with a personalized logo at the bottom of the shoe’s tongue and fun graphics on the upper inspired by his love of hunting, dirt bikes, skulls and playing pool.

Jordan Dark, 12, (Mt. Angel, OR): Nike Air Jordan VI Retro
Jordan’s creativity comes to life in this shoe that takes inspiration from the Jordan 12, 5, 9 and 6, a play on his birth date of 12-5-1996.

Anna Finley, 11, (Salem, OR): Nike Air Max Zenyth
Anna’s vivid imagination and love of color is highlighted in this multi-colored shoe with hand-drawn balloons, animals, trees, hearts and music notes.

Makayla Hansen, 12, (Elgin, OR): Nike Skinny Dunk High
Makayla’s love for playing basketball and riding her bike is clear with a multi-colored basketball design on the upper and five bikes waiting to be discovered under the ankle support straps.

Molly Anne Modeste Martin, 14, (Lake Oswego, OR): Nike Shox NZ
Molly’s colorful Nike Shox design incorporates symbols of her life’s passions and beliefs—a silhouette of herself running track, a basketball hidden under the top eyelet, a music note, and “Just Do It” embroidered on the back of one heel and “Together” on the other.
