On October 15th, Nike and Undercover founder and designer, Jun Takahashi, will come together once again to release its newest collection of high-performance running gear for Fall/Holiday 2011.

Merging the best in modern innovation such as advanced lightweight, waterproof, breathable materials and traditional craftsmanship, the third installment to the Nike x Undercover Gyakusou collection is rooted in a simple philosophy that is focused on fulfilling a crucial mission: To create the best running product that strikes the perfect balance between style and absolute functionality.

To exemplify the characteristics of this collection, Takahashi and his running crew, GIRA (GYAKUSOU International Running Association) a small but dedicated group of Tokyo-based runners, gathered in the still thriving center of historic Japanese culture, the city of Kyoto, to capture the beauty and functionality of the Nike x Undercover Gyakusou Holiday 2011 Collection through a short film named "Running Monks", by Art Director Tetsuya Nagato and Photographer Katsuhide Morimoto.
