ALL CONDITIONS CUP: the collaboration between NIKE ACG and INTER takes off with a different type of footballing event | OneFootball

Inter continue to explore new territory, on and off the pitch. On Tuesday 20 January, the Nerazzurri Club teamed up with Nike ACG (All Conditions Gear) to stage the All Conditions Cup, a football event unlike any other, celebrating the bond between Inter and the Nike ACG brand through an immersive experience deeply connected to nature.

The initiative was conceived to mark the launch of the new Nike ACG x Inter collection and took place in a striking mountain location in Piedmont, chosen to embody the shared values of adaptability, uncompromising performance and wild spirit. After a walk through the snow, guests reached a truly unique football pitch: a snow-covered field seamlessly integrated into the Alpine landscape, with trees and rocks becoming part of the action.

Adding to the event’s iconic atmosphere, the players’ entrance (alongside referee Maria Caciotto and hosts Nina G and Demba) was accompanied by the sound of a horn, blown by a 'Valkyrie' standing on a rock at the centre of the pitch, dressed in selected pieces from the Nike ACG x Inter collection.

The undisputed stars of the event were two legendary Nerazzurri icons: Julio Cesar and Luis Figo. The former Brazilian goalkeeper and the 2000 Ballon d’Or winner led the two teams as coaches, bringing prestige and passion to a truly special tournament. Several communities also took part in the event – including One Block Down, Funky Snowboard, Chakall, Maradonne and 24.7 – all actively involved in forming the teams that took to the pitch.

The match, played five-a-side over two 30-minute halves, followed the so-called “rules of nature”, with snow, rocks and trees acting as obstacles – or opportunities – within the game. Enhancing the innovative format was the introduction of three special orange cards (circle, triangle and square) each unlocking unique advantages, such as a one-on-one between goalkeepers, a special shot taken from behind the central rock, or the temporary dismissal of an opponent.

All players wore the new and exclusive Nike ACG x Inter fourth kit, featuring the iconic Black, Hyper Blue and Safety Orange colour palette, along with details celebrating the partnership between the two brands — from the co-branded logo to the Inner Pride message inside the collar. The entire collection was unveiled outdoors through a striking open-air installation, perfectly in keeping with ACG’s bold, performance-driven aesthetic.

The team coached by Júlio César claimed overall victory and was awarded the Wooden Goat, a handcrafted wooden trophy depicting a goat with a football, created by Milan-based artist Nicola Lorini.

The Nike ACG x Inter collection is available on nike.com, store.inter.it, at Inter Store Milano, Inter Store Castelloand Inter Store San Siro, as well as through selected retailers.

The fourth kit will be worn by the Men’s First Team on Friday 23 January at San Siro against Pisa, and by Inter Women on Sunday 25 January away to Como Women.
