Nike ACG - Camo for Chamonix?

Find your ACG kit - lots of options!

Aug 20, 2026

Nike is rolling out a kit “inspired by the foliage of the Chamonix Valley”.. ahhh now the name makes sense.. Chamo Camo!

ACG Solar Chase

Nike sent me a couple of shirt samples and a pair of “Chamo” shorts to match. The shirts use their DRI-FIT ADV material - which is their more performance-oriented material - providing advanced fit and materials engineering.

It’s a cotton/poly blend - so not your typical ultralight engineered material - it has a pleasing soft feel on the body. I’ve actually been keeping these in my “regular” t-shirts drawer, not the running one!

Solar Chase in Light Crimson shown above.. Hang out all day in style, then keep it on for the run! The solid prints have a perforated mesh in the rear and under the arms.

The new “Chamo” print model has perforated mesh under the arms and the regular material (printed camo) on the back.

There’s also a unique split at the hem which I kind of dig.

The material absorbs moisture, but dries out quickly. I thought I would be completely soaked by the end of my runs, but I was surprisingly dry (note- humidity is quite low here in Boise). I’m finding these to be stylish tees for all types of scenarios - both on trail and off.

I have both shirts in my typical size Medium for tops. Perfect sizing and fit for me.

ACG “Chamo Camo” Trail Running Shorts

I don’t know.. for me it’s a bit much to be running around in the full top & bottom “Chamo” kit. One at a time is good for me, otherwise around here people might think I’m out on a hunt.

The ACG “Chamo Camo” shorts come in a 6” length with a brief liner. There are two rear pockets, divided in the middle - useful for the usual small items, I could get 2-3 gels comfortably in each, depending on the size.

You’ve also got standard side pockets up front, making this a useful short for non-running activities where you might need to bring your phone/wallet/keys along for a quick stop.

I do like the fact that the drawstring ties on the outside of the waistband. C’mon brands - this should be standard!

The two pockets in the back are fine for a short run, but you can always throw on your favorite waist belt for longer outings. The flat waistband and outside drawstring make this a comfortable setup.

I’m wearing a size Medium here and I’m landing just on the low end of that sizing. Size Small would likely be too snug.
