ACG (All Conditions Gear) has recently been relaunched by Nike as a performance outdoor brand dedicated to athletes seeking challenge, adventure, and a connection with nature, with a particular focus on trail running, hiking, and exploration.
To kick off this new chapter, ACG returned to its natural habitat: the great outdoors, transforming a historic Italian train into the All Conditions Express, a rolling base camp designed for outdoor enthusiasts.
Departing from Milan and venturing into the Orobie Alps, the All Conditions Express offered a tailored four-day journey from February 4 to 8, combining inspiration, exploration, connections, and the spirit of ACG in motion.
Passengers experienced a carefully curated program that included innovation-focused sessions highlighting the Lava Loft and Ultrafly, opportunities to meet the All Conditions Racing Department (Drew Holmen, Caleb Olson, Daniela Oemus, Cesare Maestri, Baptiste Coatantiec, Bailey Kowalczyk, and Ross Bollon), as well as guidance and lessons from local experts to inspire, inform, and physically and mentally prepare adventurers to explore the unique Orobie Alps through guided trail running and hiking experiences.
Onboard, each carriage was meticulously transformed to ACG standards, including:
- Compartments with custom-designed seating providing travelers with full ACG kits and gear suitable for various conditions
- A bar carriage, inspired by classic alpine huts, serving as the central gathering point of the train
- An equipment lab facilitating discussions, informative workshops, and detailed product presentations
World-class Nike athletes from various sports joined the adventure: tennis superstar Jannik Sinner and Paralympic champion Bebe Vio welcomed the first group on February 5 and kicked off the day, with additional special guests joining in the following days.
