Combining the old world traditions of Japan under a new medium, the Nike ACG Kimono jacket came to fruition under a trip to Japan by Global Design Director Stewart Horner. Seeing the intricate and painstaking process of creating Kimono fabrics, Stewart Horner set out to re-create this same traditional process under the pretense of a highly technical 3-Layer Storm-Fit performance jacket. Although the outer layers of the jacket are simplistic in nature, the inner workings of the jacket include some strong aspects of design for integration with hardware.
