The new year always brings us annual sneaker collections themed around Lunar New Year, typically taking the new zodiac animal as inspiration. This week, another Nike shoe has surfaced for their collection, the Air Jordan 1 Low “Year of the Snake”.
With the annual release of Chinese New Year’s sneakers coming up in the next few months, pairs from different brands have already started to emerge in leaks. Nike’s collection is always one we look forward to, as these projects typically make use of iconic silhouettes and add plenty of wild and interesting new details. This week, the Air Jordan 1 Low has surfaced as a part of this year’s project, coming soon.
This year’s Lunar New Year style of the Air Jordan 1 Low brings some snakeskin-inspired materials to the iconic silhouette. The shoe features a simple grey and white color scheme, with a white leather base and grey outer panels. The tongues and Swooshes come with a ripstop textured finish, while an iridescent wings logo on the heels completes the look.
