Nike’s ACG line has spawned some of the most intricate sneaker designs in Nike history, bringing with it a strong cult following of particular sneaker fanatics who adore these purely outdoor designs. Starting in 1989 and still pushing strong today, ACG has seduced its followers with some amazing designs – with an opinion of the 25 best put together by Complex. Some of the usual icons are here, like the Air Mowabb and Terra, but there are some unique ones with some rather interesting names (the rugged Nike Air Vulgarian Chukka is one example), so check out some of the highlights below and check out the full list on Complex.

One of several signs that All Conditions Gear reached another peak over the past few years, the Nike ACG Manoa boot returns after nearly a year without so much as a peep. This clean design with the distinctive molded Swoosh is back and perhaps better than ever in a Hazelnut design that adds green on the laces and lining for a look somewhere between Robin Hood and Peter Pan. That would suggest an epic impact once they enter your lives, so stick with Sneaker News for release info after you’ve had a chance to see more photos below.

Beyond its status as one of the cult heroes of the outdoor niche, the Air Humara (not to be confused with its immediate successor, Air Terra Humara) can be seen as a predecessor to modern Nike runners including the Powerlines series and other models with Dynamic Fit. The Nike Newmara has this intelligent lockdown system in place as well, an update to the aforementioned 1996 debut that rides a sole identical to the ACG Okwahn II, with the exception of the two-toned midsole base applied beneath the offroad-ready speckles. Nike has issued several strong trail releases in the past three or four years; where does the Newmara rank against instant classics like the Lunar MacLeay, Air Force 1 Boots of all types or any of the winter-ready Foamposite releases?

A ranking of the 100 best Swooshed-out kicks in history is quite the heady undertaking, but you can be confident that the collective of sneaker-crazed minds that put this beast of a list together know their stats. The folks at Complex plus a few other respected hobbyists carefully ranked the best Nikes from one to the century mark, and like any list of ‘bests’, readers are bound to hiss and boo (or even tilt their heads in confusion – some of the stuff in here is from deep in the archives). We’ve picked out a representative from each tier of 10s, so check out what stood out to us and hit up Complex for the entire feature.

The success of the initial colorways last year and into this spring, paired with a couple similar spin-off styles and the overall robust health of the current All Conditions Gear lineup would seem to suggest a strong future for the Nike Zoom Meriwether. And yet here it is, less than five weeks remaining in 2012 and this is our first release since it got cold again. The wait looks to have been worthwhile, though as we get the most aggressive Zoom Meriwether ACG yet, a Black and Sport Red edition with metallic eyelets that just dropped at select Nike Sportswear stores like Premier.

It’s definitely Nike ACG season out there, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to phase the Air Max wears out of your rotation. The all new Nike Air Max Terra Sertig encapsulates both of those categories, tweaking a classic trail design with the more and more readily availble jumbo airbag treatment. Click through with us for a look at the new black/anthracite/medium violet/stadium green colorway and head over to Social Status if you feel like you need a pair in your life.
