Latest DOAF Release Scores A Perfect 10
Oregon student-athletes may sport some of the hottest uniforms in college athletics, but they also know how to play it cool when it comes to style. Witness Ducks of a Feather’s latest offering: an AF1 ’07 Luxe Oregon Player Edition offered in an ultra-limited run of only 10 pairs.
The sneakers reimagine the AF1 ’07 in a sophisticated combination of color and texture that manages to be both luxe and low-key at the same time. An ultra-premium high-texture suede upper in a creamy natural color is accentuated by chocolate brown leather piping outlining all panels, as well as the tone-on-tone Swoosh. Golden accents on the lace dubrae and the Ducks of a Feather hangtag, along with a golden leather heel cap/counter, add an elegant touch which is complemented by a chocolate leather sockliner quilted with contrasting white stitching and Ducks of a Feather labeling. A classic white midsole paired with a chocolate outsole complete the design, for a look both subtle and stunning.
A limited number of Varsity letterman’s style jackets were also made in collaboration with Settlemier’s Jackets and Van Horne Brands.
The jacket, designed in a complementary color palette of premium materials, sports a timeless silhouette for an appeal that’s both classic and fresh. A body of 100% virgin Pendleton wool in rich chocolate is offset by cream-colored suede sleeves of cowhide leather, offering a striking contrast of both color and texture. Angled front pockets trimmed in chocolate leather blend both functionality and style. “Oregon” rendered in textured block lettering outlined in gold across the jacket front recalls the University’s heritage. Ribbed fabric at the collar, cuffs and waist features a cream colored stripe on a chocolate field, adding a classic sport motif to the design. Left and right sleeves feature an “X” (edition number) and “D O A F” branding, respectively. A lining of quilted poly-satin lining with a “Ducks of a Feather” inside neck label complete the design.
Separately, or together, the footwear and jacket make a statement that Ducks of a Feather not only flock together, they look good in the process. As with all Ducks of a Feather items, proceeds from sales benefit participating University of Oregon student-athletes across multiple sports.
