Japanese fashion label Undercover and [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ispa) have combined to create a new line of sports apparel for the spring-and-summer season. The Undercover and Nike Gyakusou Spring/Summer 2011 lookbook is filled with a variety of lightweight and colorful shorts, shirts and jackets perfect for the breezy late spring and sweltering summer months.

One of my favorite features of the Gyakusou Spring/Summer 2011 lookbook is that it shows models in motion. Most sports apparel lookbooks show models draped in athletic wear who look readier for a day out than a workout. The active theme combined with the [colorful and stylish clothing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/y3-ss26) make this lookbook a definite winner and a must-see for those of you who plan to update your athletic wear with the changing seasons.
