Nike’s Chinese New Year Collection Includes the Air Force 1 Low “Year of the Dragon”
Featuring motifs nodding to the fabled beast.
For over a decade, Nike has been honoring the Lunar New Year with special festive releases. Among 2024’s entries, the Swoosh includes a special Air Force 1 Low.
The pair’s upper features a light grey leather base and soft suede pastel pink overlays. The profile Swooshes and heel tab, although sharing a palette with the base layer, are given contrast thanks to its scaled finish, harkening back to the mythical beast’s exterior.
Thematic inclusions include a dragon-inspired “Just Do It” tongue tag, sockliner graphics, lace lock, and heel tag. All the aforementioned sit atop a stitched white midsole and semi-translucent pink-gum outsole.
The Nike Air Force 1 Low “Year of the Dragon” is expected to be released sometime in January 2024. Find them then via Nike SNKRS and select retailers with an RRP of US$125.
