You didn’t ask for it, but Nike brought it back anyway—yes, the Nike ACG Phassad “Yellow Zest” has returned. This trail-friendly throwback from the Y2K gear era is here to conquer rocks, roots, and…parking lots. It’s rugged, bold, and has more personality than your last group chat.

Nike clearly raided the outdoors archive and said, “Let’s add a buckle.” And they did. The Phassad is dressed in a silver, black, and bright yellow upper with a lace shroud inspired by tents—because nothing screams functionality like camping gear for your feet. And yes, it still has that mini Swoosh flex on the toe box, just to remind you who’s boss.

Underfoot, the trail-ready outsole is basically a tire tread. It’ll grip better than your favorite reality TV contestant clinging to fame. Thanks to Nike Air cushioning, you’ll stay comfy whether you’re on the trail or just pretending to hike for the ‘Gram.

The Black/Yellow Zest colorway pays homage to the original, bringing nostalgic vibes with modern comfort. Whether you’re a diehard ACG fan or just like shoes that scream “I camp, but only in theory,” this pair fits.

Dropping Fall 2025 for $120 USD at select retailers and Nike.com, the Nike ACG Phassad “Yellow Zest” is a must for anyone who loves vintage style and unnecessary buckles. Don’t sleep—unless it’s in a tent, in these.
