Every year for the past decade or so, Nike has celebrated Lunar New Year by releasing a bunch of very special sneakers, and for 2024, the American sportswear company has taken the wraps off of the Air Jordan 1 Low “Chinese New Year.” Set to drop alongside the “Year of the Dragon,” this has got to be one of the best CNY-themed Air Jordan 1s ever made.
Crafted from a premium all-leather construction, the “Chinese New Year” works on top of a clean “Sail” base and is overlaid by “Dark Team Red” panels throughout, symbolising the traditional colour of luck. An intricately-textured Swoosh swoops across the lateral and medial sidewalls in “Metallic Gold,” and this shiny shade extends towards the Jumpman on the tongue and the winged basketball emblem around the heel.
Underfoot, the midsole is infused with Air tech for unbeatable comfort and cushioning, and this Air Jordan is packed in an exclusive shoebox and comes with a bunch of exclusive accessories, including a stainless steel bracelet and a red envelope, which is essentially a small pocket that’s presented to friends and family as a gesture of good fortune and prosperity.
If you want the Air Jordan 1 Low “Chinese New Year” in your collection, it’s set to release on January 24th, 2024. Even more CNY-themed trainers are set to be revealed within the coming days, so keep it locked at Captain Creps for everything that you need to know.
