Ducks of a Feather and Nike Celebrate the Oregon–Japan Connection With the Air Max 1 “Tokyo”

A new chapter in the Ducks of a Feather collaboration arrives this summer as Nike, Division Street, and Flight Club unite for the launch of the highly exclusive Ducks of a Feather x Nike Air Max 1 “Tokyo.” The release celebrates the connection between the University of Oregon community and Japan’s influential sneaker scene while supporting Oregon student-athletes through proceeds generated by the project.

The design embraces a refined aesthetic inspired by Tokyo’s appreciation for understated elegance and expert craftsmanship. Premium grey tones dominate the upper, creating a clean and sophisticated foundation. Injecting energy into the silhouette are vivid multicolored accents that reflect the electric atmosphere of Tokyo’s most famous nightlife and fashion hubs, including Shibuya and Harajuku. Several custom details reinforce the storytelling behind the release. A distinctive Duck head emblem appears throughout the sneaker alongside colorful graphic elements representing the worldwide diversity of the Ducks community. 

Completing the theme, the tongue features embroidered Japanese text translating to “GO DUCKS,” further strengthening the cultural connection behind the project. The Air Max 1 follows a series of notable Ducks of a Feather releases throughout 2026, including collaborative takes on the Nike GT Future and Air Max 95 BB. Adding to the excitement surrounding the launch, renowned Nike designer Tinker Hatfield will make a special appearance at Flight Club Tokyo for an exclusive meet-and-greet event on June 26. 

Consumers will have their chance to secure the limited-edition sneaker beginning with online and in-store raffle entries running from June 23 through June 26. The Ducks of a Feather x Nike Air Max 1 “Tokyo” will officially release on June 28, 2026, exclusively through Flight Club Tokyo.
