The Chinese New Year is right around the corner and Nike is celebrating with the Nike Year of the Rabbit. Nike traditionally rings in the Chinese New Year with a new shoe release and this year is no different as the Tennis Classic was remade to ring in the new year.
The Nike Year of the Rabbit comes in two colors: metallic gold for the boys and metallic red for the girls. The shoe features a rabbit on the inside heel as well as the year on the tongues. While the shoe is a China exclusive, you can still see it in all its glory in the gallery featured.
