Nike celebrates the Lunar New Year in 2022 with this Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07 LV8 “Year of the Tiger”! Festive motifs adorn the rather simple shoe – headlined by the classic Swoosh dressed in vibrant tiger stripes. Maybe this shoe would bring us enough luck to cop our must-have pairs this year!
Annually, Nike releases a Chinese/Lunar New Year sneaker collection. Usually comprised of old and new silhouettes, the AF1 Low ’07 LV8 makes a return donning bright hues and a change in upper materials. Time to bring out the tiger in you and in this pair as we enjoy the early 2022 festivities.
No matter how many updates and reworks, the Nike Air Force 1 remains undisputed in the sneaker culture. Sneakerhead or not, you can easily recognise a clean and simple shoe with Swooshes on the sides and a large “AIR” lettering on the midsole. The low-cut version is arguably the most popular, and its effortless style is highly responsible for that.
Introduced in 1982, the Nike Air Force 1 graced the basketball courts as the brand’s premier model. With a durable crisp leather upper, the AF1 also featured an encapsulated Air unit for cushioning. Years have passed and the Nike AF1 made its way to the retailers as a lifestyle shoe. While it’s not comparable to the hoops shoe standards we have today, it sure is comfortable for everyday routines.
This Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07 LV8 “Year of the Tiger” arrives in a Sail White canvas upper base. Bright hues adorn most of the body. The likes of Cyan, Red, and Orange appear on the tongue lining, upper lining, heel panel, and outsole, respectively.
Black and Yellow tiger stripes make up the Swoosh to celebrate the Chinese zodiac animal for 2022. A colourful dragon on the rear brings more life to the shoe.
The tongue dons a yellow tag where a Chinese character appears underneath the Swoosh.
Stay tuned for the official release in February 2022 just in time for the Lunar New Year.
