Nike "All Conditions Gear," aka ACG, was birthed in the 1980s out of the brand's desire to expand performance apparel from the courts, tracks, and fields to the great outdoors. What started as a line for outdoor enthusiasts quickly became a favorite amongst sneakerheads. With a look and feel that screams the '80s and '90s, Nike seemed to slow down production of ACG releases in years past. Only recently did we begin seeing a reemergence of the ACG line, but it didn't quite feel the same. With most of the ACG products releasing in all black colorways, we wondered if we'd ever see ACG return it it's original flavor. Now, with the recent release of O.G. Air Mowabb colorways and this women's Mobb mid, it appears that ACG is back in true form.

This women's Mobb mid comes in a Mulberry and Purple Dusk colorway that is reminiscent of the the ACG glory days. It's a mix of Nike DNA: There's a suede upper, hints of the Huarache line, and a Free sole. It's for lovers of Nike who can't make up their minds but want something different yet familiar.

While this drop is exclusively for women, it looks like a good sign of things to come. You can buy this sneaker for $120 at heistny.com
