The Nike #WeekZero collection launched two weeks ago, a special collection of thirteen colorways of the Free Trainer 5.0 that each celebrate a college football national power. Yes, Oregon was one of those schools, but if you really thought that the Ducks would settle for just one Nike PE when twelve other schools could share that honor, you had another thing coming. What are they, plebeians?
And so, following the #WeekZero pack’s white pair, a green Nike Free Trainer 5.0 Oregon Ducks PE will see a public launch as well.
Boasting a light and bright shade of green over the upper, offset by black overlays and yellow accents, the shoe aligns a little more closely with Oregon’s recent shift toward their 90s palette (kelly green, rather than dark green). The team’s signature feather pattern is printed in the reflective heel, and school branding adorns the insole and both sides of the tongue, stylishly channeling all sorts of school spirit.
Launching just in time for the football season — ignoring the limited run of pairs that hit the Nike employee store a couple of weeks ago — the green Nike Free Trainer 5.0 Oregon Ducks release date is set for September 2.
