The Nike x Jacquemus Après Ski clothing collection has launched, with 18 meticulously crafted pieces aimed at providing exceptional winter performance infused with the French designer's hallmark elegance.

Regardless of whether you are a skier, snowboarder, or an observer on the slopes, the comprehensive Ski range is founded on adaptability, meticulously harmonizing aesthetics with athletic integrity. Founder and designer Simon Porte Jacquemus said in an official statement, “Collaborating with technical fabrics, acquiring knowledge from esteemed professionals, and implementing a minimalistic and contemporary approach was an exceptionally intriguing process for me, in the Jacquemus manner.”

“I have consistently been an enthusiast of skiing; it is my preferred sport and has served as my favored winter retreat since childhood,” he continued. Ski apparel has consistently intrigued me, and I am an avid collector of vintage 1980s ski garments. This cooperation with Nike is an opportunity for me to introduce a novel fashion narrative into our partnership and the ski community, marking a first for me.

The forefront of the collection features basic mountain gear: streamlined, triple-layer GORE-TEX jackets and trousers. The GORE-TEX jacket is a versatile garment, including a waterproof and windproof outside along with a complementary internal bomber jacket. The shell presents a customized silhouette with subtle Nike x Jacquemus elements, while the inner jacket displays a Swoosh on the chest and Jacquemus branding around the shoulders. The ensemble is finalized with complementing GORE-TEX trousers, providing robust weather protection in a streamlined design, including detachable jacquard straps and distinctive ‘J’ belt loops.

A long-sleeve top for men can serve as an insulating layer or a standalone garment, featuring sport-inspired design lines and thumb holes suitable for mittens. Simultaneously, the iconic Jacquemus men’s shirt is transformed for mountainous environments, with a water-repellent fabric, a rear ‘J’ loop, and a chest pocket. In other contexts, a soft, water-repellent woven jumpsuit functions as an optimal outer layer for women, while ultra-high-waisted leggings and a bralette featuring a curved hem at the bust offer a comfortable, insulated foundation.

The Nike x Jacquemus Après Ski collection will be released on November 26 at jacquemus.com and Jacquemus stores, with a subsequent launch on December 3 at nike.com and select retail partners.
