Nike Air Force 1 Low Gets a Shaggy Makeover in “Virginia Union”

As a proud alumnus of Virginia Union University (VUU), I can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of pride and nostalgia upon laying my eyes on the Nike Air Force 1 Low “Virginia Union”. The collaboration between Dex Robinson and Nike is not just a shoe, but a testament to the rich heritage and spirit that VUU embodies.

Product Name: Nike Air Force 1 Low – “Virginia Union” Edition

A unique version of Nike Air Force 1 Lows has been released, thanks to Dex Robinson, who is expressing his loyalty to Virginia Union University (VUU) through these shoes. These traditional low-top Nikes draw inspiration from the university’s rich history and its Panther mascot. The shoe’s upper, made of hair-on leather, represents the school’s strength and spirit, inspired by the panther. The Swoosh is accentuated with steel and deep red details on the laces, adding to the spirit-inspired embellishments. The heel tabs bear messages like “Dear Union” and “With Love, Dex Rob,” symbolizing Robinson’s heartfelt letter to his alma mater. The insoles feature a letter from Robinson himself, along with a silhouette of the school campus sign, emphasizing Panther pride. This “Virginia Union” pair serves as a testament to HBCU excellence and Robinson’s legacy with VUU.
