Jun Takahashi has two obsessions, textiles and running. The Nike x Undercover Gyakusou Collection gives him an opportunity to explore these two passions through a pioneering mix of Nike Running and Research Lab innovations and his less but better design philosophy.
For Holiday 2014, Jun Takahashi continues his exploration of the true meaning of Gyakusou, which literally translates to “running in reverse.” Similar to past seasons, the collection’s palette remains neutral with the men’s collection featuring dark obsidian, deep smolder, black, dark armory blue, bog green, armory navy and dark grey.
The Nike x Undercover Gyakusou Holiday 2014 Collection hits NikeLab destinations worldwide and nike.com on Oct. 23.
The Nike X Undercover Gyakusou 2014 Men’s Utility Long Tights (above) are the perfect combination of running shorts and running tights. The tights eliminate the bulk of two layers without compromising functionality or comfort. A looser fit on top incorporates pockets for the aforementioned essentials and recalls classic sport shorts, while the integrated full-leg coverage of tights provides necessary warmth.
