Nike Undercover Gyakusou FW11 _ Running Monks
Fall/Winter 2011 campaign imagery from Nike x Undercover Gyakusou, Jun Takahashi’s running project with Nike. Shot in Kyoto, the Running Monks film and lookbook place technical running apparel against temple architecture, shrine paths, moss, stone, and woodland.
The collection frames running as a quiet, ritualized practice rather than a purely athletic one. Slim outer layers, tights, gloves, caps, and tonal performance pieces sit within a muted autumn palette, connecting Nike running technology with Undercover’s controlled, monastic visual language.
