Chinese New Year, aka Lunar New Year, is just around the corner in 2023, so expect a bunch of sneaker companies to cash in on the millennia-old celebration with a slew of thematic releases. For Nike, they’re actually revisiting an old concept on a new pair of Dunks as the Year of the Rabbit approaches once again.
For anyone that’s been in the game for a while, they’ll recognise these white, blue and red Dunks channelling the same layout as the YOTR Air Force 1 from 2011. That pair was a fairly limited release, complete with plenty of premium details and even a small batch that shipped in custom White Rabbit candy-inspired packaging.
As 12 years have rolled around, it’s time to revisit the rabbit. These Dunks do a good job of replicating the AF-1 but rejig some proportions due to the different panelling. However, the suede and leather combo with the chenille Swooshes is reprised, and the ‘2011’ on the outsoles pays direct homage to its inspiration.
As CNY is in January 2023, expect these Dunks to hit Nike retailers within weeks.
