First Looks // Nike Dunk Low Remastered "Year Of The Dragon"

As the Chinese New Year approaches, Nike is gearing up for a spectacular celebration with its "Year of the Dragon" collection for 2024. This year's offering is extraordinary, featuring styles from Nike Sportswear, Nike Running, Nike Basketball, and the iconic Air Jordan line. Among the latest additions to this festive lineup is the experimental Nike Dunk Low Remastered, a contemporary twist on Peter Moore's timeless basketball silhouette from 1985.

While several "Year of the Dragon" sneakers have emerged recently, the Nike Dunk Low Remastered stands out with its bold and commemorative design. The color palette showcases various shades of white, grey, red, and green, capturing the essence of the Chinese New Year. What sets this Remastered variant apart are the scale-like textures adorning the profile swooshes and collection-specific labels on the lateral side. To add a touch of festivity, the exposed foam tongue proudly displays "Just Do It" tags in rich red, a nod to prevalent Chinese New Year symbolism. Even the logos on the sock liners receive special updates for this occasion, contributing to the playful charm of the Nike Dunk Low.

Beneath the shoe, the update maintains simplicity with a white and cream-colored midsole and traction setup. This understated choice allows the upper's intricate design to take center stage.

As we eagerly await the release, official photos of the pair offer a glimpse of what's to come. The Nike Dunk Low Remastered is expected to retail for $120 on Nike.com when it releases in January 2024.
