NIKE ACG Reboot

NIKE ACG is coming back, but for how long?


I’m getting Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy here


Wes Anderson?


I had the first iteration of the NIKE Caldera hiking shoe, in this exact blue & purple colorway

I just remembered: mine had black/blue/purple laces, not plain brown; I forget if they came that way, or if I modded them up, somehow?

Oh yeah ---- then there’s this … whatever it’s supposed to be

Key word(s) “Activation Space”

I guess that means “store?” Or, at an Expo, it would be “kiosk?” Perhaps a “pop-up?”

Again, I could’ve posted this in the “Influencer” thread, but I’m at my “3 consecutive posts” limit over there, too


My gawd that dudebro is so very punchable - I am actively put off of even considering anything ACG or Nike for purchase

I’m on a NIKE boycott, so I’m not buying it anyway, but yeah, you can see why my first move was to put him in the “influencer” thread

Those vintage ACG colorways really have a unique aesthetic that’s hard to find in modern gear. It wouldn’t surprise me if you swapped the laces to match the accents; lace swapping was a pretty common way to personalize those 90s outdoor kits. It’s cool to see these designs making a comeback.

The 90s were a unique time, that’s for sure
