Nike is going all out on the sneaker releases for Lunar New Year celebrations next month. In addition to the drops from the Swoosh's basketball division featuring the Ja 1 and the KD 4, the brand also has a Year of the Dragon-themed Air Force 1 on the way.
Pictured here are images of the forthcoming "Year of the Dragon" Air Force 1 Low, which was first shared by @Shanghaisole on Instagram. The entirety of the upper is covered in a regal gold silk material and features patterns of various flowers and Swoosh logos throughout. The standout detail on this pair is the embroidery of a dragon on the lateral side of the left shoe, while a pheonix appears on the right shoe as a symbol of harmony. The silk pattern also covers the entirety of the midsole, while a tan outsole sits below.
In addition to the sneaker, Nike is releasing a set of matching hoodies, as seen in the image below.
Per @Shanghaisole on Instagram, this "Year of the Dragon" Air Force 1 Low colorway is scheduled to be released on Feb. 14 on SNKRS in China for a retail price of 2599 rmb, which roughly converts to $365.
