The stars of the Spring 2019 collection are two lightweight, packable jackets dubbed the “Transform JKT” and “Lightweight JKT”. Both jackets are built to withstand wind and rain. Laser cut holes are placed strategically in the jackets to ensure breathability, while the soft Dri-Fit base material is designed to wick sweat away.

The innovative sets of men’s tight and women’s shorts are made of scientifically-informed knit. Consequently, seams have been reduced and compression is applied where most needed.

For footwear, the Gyakusou x Nike SP19 collection offers the Nike Vaporfly 4% in deep burgundy knit, while the Nike Pegasus Turbo will arrive in variations of earthy green and yellow.
