ACG Air Exploraid, Vibram Clean Trek [1999]

The Exploraid was part of a trio of high-tech trail runners, all of which leaned more on the side of running shoes than hiking boots. The Explorun and Explorage were the two other models, with the latter being almost impossible to find these days. In our opinion, all three are some of the best ACG models of all time due to their seamless blend of rugged fabrication, robust construction and sleek silhouette. Thankfully, we're seeing the Exploraid release again in 2024 however, in the meantime, most vintage pairs are unwearable. This pair has been resoled with a Vibram Clean Trek sole unit, which adds bulk but still follows the sleek design language of the upper perfectly.
