Nike Air Force 1 Low “Year Of The Dragon” Sail FZ5052-131

SneakersLike — Sun, 26 Nov 2023 10:24:13 +0000

In the vibrant world of sneaker releases, thematic storytelling often sees various models within a brand’s roster contributing to a cohesive narrative. Following the trail set by the ‘Year of the Dragon’ Dunk Low, Nike introduces its counterpart in the saga, the Air Force 1 Low. While the sneakers share the celebratory spirit of the Chinese Zodiac’s esteemed symbol, the Air Force 1 Low charts its unique path in paying homage to the mythical creature.
At first glance, the Air Force 1 Low’s subtle sail-toned upper suggests a lesson in minimalism. However, this understated base is not without purpose, serving as a canvas, allowing meticulously crafted details to assume the spotlight. The most striking of these are the reptilian-textured Swooshes that snake across each side panel, their tactile surface mimicking the scales of the legendary dragon, capturing the essence of power and wisdom the creature represents.
Adding a touch of luxury, precious gem dubraes adorn the laces, reminiscent of the treasures within mythical dragon hoards. These, along with the communal ‘Just Do It’ tongue tags, bridge the gap between this iteration and its Dunk Low predecessor, subtly unifying the collection’s theme.
The narrative depth extends to the nylon tongue, where traditional patterns are intricately woven but require a closer, more appreciative inspection to unveil their complexity, a nod to the rich tapestry of Asian artistry. Similarly, graphic insoles and unique heel tags contribute additional layers of cultural homage, the vibrant graphics bringing forth serious Asian persuasion without overwhelming the design’s overall subtlety.

Nike Dunk Low Year Of The Rabbit Orange Brown FD4203-661 Restock

SneakersLike — Mon, 03 Apr 2023 11:25:18 +0000

Nike has gone full steam ahead with the Year of the Rabbit theme, taking its Dunk Low silhouette in a number of Rabbit-themed directions. Unlike the rest of the pastel-themed editions of the Year of the Rabbit collection, this Dunk takes inspiration from the brighter elements of the CNY tradition. Regardless, this release looks premium in its approach, mixing up suedes, leathers and furs that give us a quality version of the Nike Dunk Low.A soft red suede contrasts the overlaying brown leather panelling, creating a clash of colours that works surprisingly well. The Swoosh and tongue label adopts the faux-fur elements that were so distinct on the other editions of the YOTR pack, this time dousing it in a dark burgundy to match. On the ankle collar, an orange suede draws further attention to the jade “Nike” spell-out embroidered on the heel. Debossed into the leather back panel is a white rabbit, the most obvious reference to the CNY animal. Rounding off the shoe is the red dubrae and semi-translucent outsole, adding another element and overall special feel to this Dunk.

Jordan Legacy 312 Year Of The Rabbit Sail/White-Olive – jordan legacy 312 chinese new year

SneakersLike — Mon, 03 Apr 2023 10:40:52 +0000

Included in Nike’s 2023 Chinese New Year Capsule is this Jordan Legacy 312, embracing the traditional hues that help celebrate the cultural event. This year the Swoosh has really taken the rabbit theme quite literally, adding bunny tails and faux-rabbit fur to the different silhouettes within the collection. The Air Jordan Legacy 312 has managed to escape the overt references, instead embracing a range of pastel colours which complement an underappreciated silhouette.The Legacy saw mixed success when it first launched in the summer of 2018 and has struggled to find its audience since. Combining elements from Air Jordans 1-3, you might have assumed there was no room for failure, yet more doesn’t always mean better. However, this release keeps things fun with its light-hearted colour palette and CNY-inspired accents. The Wings insignia has been given a royal treatment, doused in a gold foil that sits on the ankle support collar. The strap is covered in pastel green with an embossed gold Nike spell out, matching the Jumpman logo on the heel.If you’ve been eyeing up the Jordan Legacy 312 then this “Year of the Rabbit” colourway is as good as it’s ever been.
