The Oregon Ducks Uniforms by Nike
Football is the most popular sport in the United States and, like every year, spring is the time in which we get to see a sneaky preview of the uniforms for the upcoming season. A collaboration between the University of Oregon, better known as the Ducks, and has given an outstanding result, where dynamicity and color are the key features. Nike and the University of Oregon have partnered during the last four years to create custom-designed uniforms with details like nameplates, insignia and patches that have as goal to honor the men and women who serve our country.
The Oregon Ducks uniform is a complete Nike system-of-dress where the baselayer and padding, are integrated directly into the crucial “hit zones” within the baselayer, jersey and pant that work together to offer the ultimate in lightweight speed and protection.
Among the innovations we find the Nike Chain Maille Mesh technology, which, incorporated into the back and under the arms, provides an exceptional ventilation and durability. In addition to this, into the neckline we find “Nike Flywire” technology to reduce weight and better lockdown fit over pads. Finally, the introduction of Nike Pro Combat DeFlex padding in the hip and knee areas of the pant eliminates bulk and allows for lightweight impact protection specifically into the crucial “hit zone” between the knees and shoulders.
