The new NikeLab ACGs are a modern update of a past popular model. In order to appeal to consumers with varying styles, the brand created three fresh colorways.

The [purple, black, yellow and red](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vivid-purple-colorway) version stands out the most, with the rich hues contrasting with one another for a vibrant look that's sure to catch some glances. In addition, the new NikeLab ACGs come in a more [minimal black and gray variation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acg-watercut). These tones are split up similarly, however the contrasts between them are much less pronounced. The third update is tan and white -- however a few components on the upper give it a slightly golden appearance.

All of the models have a well-gripped sole and a supportive build, ensuring long-lasting comfort.
