I don't think I love anything as much as Jun Takahashi loves running. I can only hope to one day love something as much as he does, but for now that isn't happening. Takahashi is back with Nike again this year to drop a sick Gyakusou holiday 2014 collection that will make you rethink your physical exercise regimen. First things first, let me get this out of the way and say that there aren't any new sneakers this time around. I'm sorry I had to break the news to you like this, but I didn't want you to find out about this collection and then search for the new sneakers only to have your little heart broken when you found out there weren't any. I just wanted to let you down easy because I care about you, fam. The new stuff is still bare bones greatness and supposedly meant to imagine a runner's uniform 1,000 years in the future. Which, um, okay, that's cool, I guess. There are a whole lot of ventilation panels and a varying spectrum of knit patterns probably meant for proper physical exertion and performance. But when your longest run is the ten blocks it takes to get to the gym like mine is, I really just need a ratty college tee and a pair of baggy mess shorts that show a subtle outline of my dick for all the honey dips at the local Planet Fitness. Moving on, Gyakusou's latest will be available at Nike Lab on October 23 of this year and not, in fact, 3014.
