Nike ACG Spotlights the "Almighty Pocket" in FW19 Collection Preview
Alongside a matte-black edition of the React Terra Gobe.
After releasing its ACG range’s Spring/Summer 2019 collection in April, Nike preps its follow-up with a first look at the upcoming Fall/Winter 2019 offering. Moving away from the peach and tangerine tones of its summertime counterpart, the brand is looking to usher in darker hues and earthy colorways for the new season, while keeping functionality at the forefront.
The seasonal preview showcases an emphasis on “the almighty pocket,” as described by Nike in an accompanying press release. Spotlighted pieces like patterned overalls, zippered-collared shirts, biker shorts, and vests are constructed with pockets in varying sizes and placements, while shades of red, blue and black form a rich palette. For print direction, the brand referenced the environment along with past ACG midsole foams, creating designs that mimic the lines of rock formations.
In conjunction with the apparel, Nike’s forthcoming React Terra Gobe in matte black is featured in the lookbook. The sneaker’s signature engineered lacing system and React midsole are prominent, while pops of “Space Purple” along the Swooshes and “ACG” emblems offer a splash of color.
Look out for the first drop of ACG’s Fall 2019 collection to release on Friday, August 9, at Nike’s webstore.
