The Oregon Ducks Get Their Nike Kobe 9 EM Low PEs Ahead of March Madness
Published
College basketball fans wait all year for March to roll around to witness one of the best playoff series in all sports — March Madness. Of course, with the national spotlight on these 64 NCAA programs, they all want to look their best, and Nike ensures the schools it sponsors get the hookup for the event. After Duke’s women’s team showcased their Kobe 9 EM Low images, the Oregon Ducks have just shared images of their Kobe 9 EM Low PE collection.
With Nike bringing back the Nike Kobe 9 in Protro form for the first time in 2024 and planning on dropping different versions in 2025, including the Kobe 9 Low EM Team Bank Pack and the Low EM Mambacita, it’s only fitting that The Swoosh is giving various universities their version of the pair. Three variants have been crafted for Oregon, one featuring a primarily white finish, another in the school’s green hue, and a third black rendition.
All three pairs come with the same engineered mesh construction and contrasting details on the cabling system: Kobe logos, Oregon logos, and Swoosh. Though not visible in the photo, the drop-in midsole should feature Oregon branding details. Down below, the sole units come in tonal finishes with speckled details on select portions and solid hits of contrasting colors near the midfoot and heel. Finishing the sneaker is the contrasting rubber outsole.
The Nike Kobe 9 EM Low Oregon Duck PE Collection will be exclusive to student-athletes and Oregon Ducks basketball team staff. Check below for detailed images of the collection, and download the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest releases, raffles, news, and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
