The latest chapter in the Nike Doernbecher Freestyle collection is here.

Since 2004, Nike and the Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) Doernbecher Childrenâ€s Hospital in Portland, Oregon, have changed lives with over 100 OHSU patients bringing their creativity and stories to life.

Zoe Taaffe — Nike Dunk Low

Zoe Taaffe took on the Nike Dunk Low for the Freestyle. Built with an Oregon Ducks theme, the white, green, yellow, and black low top is accented with a zebra print near the collar and toe box. The pair features interchangeable velcro Swooshes and a glow-in-the-dark outsole.

Michael Wilson — Air Jordan 5 Low

Michael Wilson continued the tradition of taking on an Air Jordan. Utilizing the Air Jordan 5 Low as his canvas, Wilson added a multicolor finish with suede and leather across the shoe.

Eyeballs and Swooshes appear under the translucent cage on the panels. A clear outsole and embossed details on the toe box, heel counter, and heel complete the colorway.

Not to mention, a macaroni dubrae makes an appearance.

Cidni Oâ€Brien — Nike Air Force 1 Low

For the Air Force 1â€s 40th anniversary, Cidni took on the iconic low-top. Applying a red, black, blue, and baby blue combination, the AF1 “Doernbecher” captures the silhouetteâ€s essence — especially with its translucent outsole with a graphic under.

Sam David Phelps — Nike LeBron 19

Sam David Phelps tapped his super powers when taking on the LeBron 19. Crowned with a black, red, and gold combo, the LeBron 19 “Doernbecher” brings together Phelps†speed & sports chair.

Maylee Phelps — NikeCourt Zoom Vapor Cage 4 Rafa

Maylee Phelps brings together her love for wheelchair tennis with the help of the NikeCourt Zoom Vapor Cage 4. The colorful & iridescent performance tennis shoe is eye-catching with its gradient finish across the Swoosh and other details.

Catalina Vazquez — Nike SB Zoom Stefan Janoski

A cult classic. The Nike SB Zoom Stefan Janoski has been a staple in the game through collabs and general releases, even within the Doernbecher collections.

Catalina adds her flair to the low-top with a blue & white look. Additionally, the pair includes a multicolor butterfly and a DNA print all over the shoeâ€s heel and outsole.

Ayman Wamala —Nike Blazer Mid

Ayman Wamala cooked up a hit with his Blazer Mid. With a black and purple look, the Blazer builds on Wamalaâ€s super powers with the tongue detail. But thatâ€s not all.

An iridescent Swoosh, translucent-esque red and white outsole, and a glow-in-the-dark finish brings it all together.
