PHOTOS: CLIVE NOCTCHAW
WORDS: BOB K

In this feature we bring you images, info and opinions on some products that you can find in stores right now. Unless we think that something's totally fucking stupid and we feel like we really have to tell you about how stupid it is, nothing that appears here will ever get a bad review. In short: this is the best stuff.

  Nike Tech Pack Sport Hoody, Air Max 90 and Basic Windrunner
 
 

What you're looking at here are 3 of the best things to come out this season: a sampling of some pieces from the Tech Pack from Nike that incorporates "technical features with lifestyle silhouettes". The fruit of many folks' labors, it draws direct inspiration from a variety of all things Nike and exists entirely in a league of it's own.

You can kinda see them in these photos but to truly appreciate the details you have to handle these in person, even try them on. Their "No-Sew" technology with bonded fabrics, welded seams, reinforcements and taping turns the above hoody into a veritable wind-proof comfort bubble. Compliment it with this Air Max 90 and Basic Windrunner (which also makes use of "No-Sew") and you've got the kit that we've been waiting all year for.
