Nike Air Max 90 Grateful Dead x University Of Oregon Grateful Ducks Tribute Sneaker Oregon Ducks Merch Unisex T-Shirt
This officially-inspired unisex t-shirt celebrates the highly sought-after Nike Air Max 90 “Grateful Dead x University of Oregon Grateful Ducks” sneaker collaboration (Style Code: IM2511-100)—a groundbreaking three-way partnership between Nike, the Grateful Dead, and Class Trip releasing on October 21-24, 2025 to commemorate the historic “Grateful Ducks” tribute game on October 25, 2025 at Autzen Stadium in Eugene, Oregon. The limited-edition Air Max 90 features a premium white leather and mesh upper with “Green Shock” and “Yellow Strike” accents (Oregon Ducks colors), psychedelic paisley patterns on the tongue tab inspired by Grateful Dead’s iconic aesthetic, custom “Grateful Ducks” co-branded insoles, heel embroidery combining the Ducks logo with Grateful Dead imagery, and collaborative hangtags commemorating 60 years of Grateful Dead history (1965-2025) alongside the band’s legendary connection to Eugene where they performed 10 concerts at Autzen Stadium and over 20 shows on UO campus between 1968-1994. Released exclusively through Nike SNKRS app and select retailers at $140-145 retail price, the sneaker dropped via shock release on October 21, 2025 and sold out within hours, making it one of the most coveted collaborative releases of 2025 among sneakerheads, Deadheads, and college sports collectors. This commemorative t-shirt merchandise pays tribute to the Air Max 90’s design elements and the broader Grateful Ducks collection—Nike’s first official collaboration with Grateful Dead properties for college athletics—which celebrates Eugene as the band’s “home away from home,” a relationship forged through University of Oregon alumnus Ken Kesey and his 1960s “Acid Tests” that connected the psychedelic movement with Pacific Northwest university culture. The October 25, 2025 “Grateful Ducks” game saw top-ranked Oregon Ducks host Wisconsin Badgers at 4:00 PM PT (broadcast on FS1) in a Big Ten Conference showdown while wearing special Grateful Dead-inspired uniforms featuring tie-dye numbers, dancing duck helmets (inspired by the Dead’s dancing bears), and Stealie duck logos during an official “Tie-Dye Out” stadium event. Perfect for sneaker enthusiasts who missed the limited Air Max 90 release, Ducks fans celebrating their team’s national championship aspirations, or Grateful Dead collectors documenting this unprecedented cultural crossover, this tee serves as wearable acknowledgment of a collaboration that represents more than footwear—it’s the intersection of athletic innovation, music history, and counterculture legacy preserved through Nike’s Air Max technology and Grateful Dead’s timeless visual identity. Whether paired with the actual Air Max 90 Grateful Ducks sneakers or worn independently as Oregon Ducks/Grateful Dead tribute apparel, this officially-inspired shirt connects fans to a landmark moment when college football tradition, iconic rock band heritage, and sneaker culture converged in Eugene to create one of 2025’s most culturally significant collaborations.
