Here we bring you an exclusive look at Nike South East Asia’s Fall/Holiday ’09 lookbook, it features stuff that’s available in stores now as well as gear that will be released over the coming months. Besides the goods, also featured are Thai personalities Chris Horwang, Nut of Dujada/Kinky and some of our buddies from Preduce.

Hit the jump to check out the whole lookbook and see if anything is to your fancy, be patient though as there’s around 3mb of data to be loaded.

One of the highlights for this season is the Air Max 1, which has now become the ninth icon of Nike Sportswear. We see the original models, as well as the Air Maxim update that adds flywire tech to the AM1 and the AM90 Huarache hybrid sneaker that is based on the AM90 DQM and HUF collabs released a few years ago.

Talking about c0llabs, we get a look at the contributions of Parra, Cassette Playa, Mark Ward and Grotesk, who have worked on various tees, jackets and kicks. Our favourite is the Parra series, but unfortunately the women’s Parra bomber jacket is not pictured, as the heavy leather sleeves and embroidered details make it in our opinion the nicest version of all the collab jackets.

Moving along, the higher-end NSW Pinnacle line has numerous pieces that boast superior construction, materials and details. One of our favourites is the Flywire M-65 Jacket, which features sealed seams, a packable design and top-notch construction. This piece will either be available at the Nike Singapore Flagship store or at Leftfoot stores, which has just become an official stockist of Nike Sportswear along with the NSW Pinnacle line.

Other items that we like are the neon footscapes, Star Classic Vintage, magenta Vandal High Vintage and the Cheyenne backpack, which features monotone colourways and design that bears more than a passing resemblance to Visvim’s Ballistic series of bags. Only the white version is pictured, but there is also a bright red colourway, which will surely be a popular seller when it drops soon. Stay tuned for specific release dates.

Parts of the Nike Sportswear Fall/Holiday ’09 collection is available now at select Nike stockists across South East Asia, whilst the NSW Pinnacle pieces will be available at the Nike Singapore Flagship Store, Wisma Atria Shopping Centre, 435 Orchard Road; and Leftfoot stores in Singapore, click here for store details.
