Nike Unveils Next Doernbecher Freestyle Collection

For the last two decades, Nike has partnered with the OHSU Doernbecher Children’s Hospital every year to give young patients the opportunity to design their own sneakers. That tradition continues this winter with today’s unveiling of the latest Doernbecher Freestyle 20 collection, shown here.

The latest range includes special iterations of the Air Jordan 6, the Sabrina 2, the Pegasus 41, the Air Max DN, the Air Max SNDR, and the Air 180, designed by Jillian Beagley, Sophia Jenkins, Tima Sviridenko, Connor Kassing Fernandez, Quin Nims, and Ja’Kai Taylor, respectively. Unique to the upcoming lineup, in comparison to previous collections, is the split-open box that comes with each sneaker. Additionally, a limited Tech Fleece hoodie featuring design elements from the aforementioned styles will be released.

For this year’s collection, there’s also a Doernbecher Air Jordan 20 that’s going up for auction from Oct. 21 to Oct. 30 via Sotheby’s. The sneaker is limited to 20 units and features lasered graphics as a reference to all 122 Doernbecher styles from the last 20 years.

The Nike Doernbecher Freestyle 20 collection is scheduled to launch via SNKRS and at select retailers later this winter. Grab a closer look at the sneakers below.
