U. of Oregon's Nike Air Max 95 "Lumbar Yard" & "The Woods" Release March 26

A new set of University of Oregon x Nike Air Max 95 collaborations has surfaced, signaling another project tied to the Ducks of a Feather initiative that continues to bring exclusive footwear releases connected to the university.

The first pair to appear features an earthy mix of browns and greens, fitting the natural palette often associated with Oregon athletics and the Pacific Northwest. The upper showcases layered textures across the Air Max 95’s signature wave panels, including suede, leather, and mesh components. A wooden Oregon “O” hangtag further ties the design back to the university, adding a subtle collegiate touch to the otherwise understated build.

A second pair, dubbed "The Woods," features a premium green makeover that nods to Oregon's expansive forests. Additionally, the commemorative style references the "Tall Firs" nickname given to the 1938–39 Oregon Ducks men’s basketball team that won the first-ever NCAA basketball championship.

The Air Max 95 has served as a frequent canvas for special projects in recent years, and this Oregon-themed edition continues that trend by combining heritage running design with school-inspired storytelling.

The University of Oregon x Nike Air Max 95 collaborations are scheduled to debut at Flight Club New York, Los Angeles, and Miami on Saturday, March 21. A wider launch takes place via GOAT on Thursday, March 26, in celebration of Air Max Day.

For more from the Swoosh, the Nike Mind 001 collection is set to restock soon.
