Nike and Jun Takahashi’s relationship is about to turn ten-years-old, but usually, it is focused on Gyakusou, their joint line focused on running. In the last few seasons, Nike has also looked at Jun Takahashi’s brand, UNDERCOVER, to expand their relationship towards circles that are further away from athletic performance.
