Over the past few years, Nike has released some of the best Chinese New Year-inspired sneakers in history, and the upcoming Nike Air Max TW NN "Lunar New Year" is definitely one of them. Taking on the latest Tailwind silhouette, the Beaverton brand has taken the retro '70s sneakers straight into the future, complete with dainty details that pay homage to the annual holiday that's celebrated both in China and across the world.
Working on top of a crisp white mesh base, the chevron sidewalls are overlaid with a selection of Swooshes and floral details to keep in line with the LNY theme. Suede panels across the front and back are outlined with fiery university red tones, and this accent extends towards the eyestays as a symbol for luck and prosperity. Underfoot, you'll find an extra chunky Max Air midsole that's as comfortable as it gets, and we haven't even mentioned the fact that a significant portion of this Air Max TW is crafted from recycled materials, making it part of the coveted "Next Nature" series.
The Nike Air Max TW Next Nature Lunar New Year White is scheduled to release in Spring 2023 in men's sizes with a retail price yet TBA.
