Mid-August marks the beginning of the end of the summer, and for a flood of college students across the country, that means decorating dorm rooms and off-campus apartments with giant Bob Marley tapestries slouching across the walls, stocked mini fridges, pallets of instant ramen, and the first and last vacuuming of the year. At select universities, it also means time for new Nike collabs.
New Forces on Campus
After getting a look at NCAA PEs for student-athletes from Jordan Brand and retail-ready colorways of the Vomero 18 for students and alums who aren’t on athletic scholarships, the back-to-campus collection is expanding further into the lifestyle lane with a collection of monochrome school collab Air Force 1 colorways.
According to leaked info from Kicks Finder, the collection will feature at least five pairs of the Air Force 1 Low Luxe for four schools. Can you guess which university got two colorways? That’s right, the pack starts with monochrome green and monochrome black pairs for Nike’s home turf, the University of Oregon, followed by a blue pair for Kentucky, a red pair for Georgia, and a burnt orange colorway for Texas. So far, we’ve only seen one leaked image of the pair for Texas, but expect more photos of the pack to emerge soon.
