Introduction:


Paying homage to Chinese tradition, this upcoming release goes beyond its 2013 predecessor by reimagining the theme with refined elegance, fusing contemporary style with symbolic detailing.

Design Details:

Instead of leaning into bold prints, the 2025 Air Force 1 ‘Year of the Snake’ showcases a crisp ‘Sail’ leather upper with understated charm. The base may appear minimalist at first glance, but a closer look reveals intricate debossed patterns on the heel counter, mimicking the mesmerizing movement of a snake pile. The thoughtful design doesn’t end there; a rich ‘Jade Horizon’ Swoosh slides along the side panels, echoing cultural reverence for jade as a symbol of purity and protection.

Adding a splash of festive red, the tongue tag boasts a subtle snakeskin effect with the signature Nike branding, symbolizing prosperity for the year ahead. Gold accents appear on the custom-designed dubrae and heel emblem, adding a luxurious touch that captures the essence of the Chinese New Year. Finally, each pair is adorned with a traditional Wan Zi knot—a charm believed to attract good fortune and ward off negativity.
