ACU and Li-Ning Launches a New Top Scholar Wade 10 Shoe
Shanghai-based retail imprint ACU works in collaboration with sportswear brand Li-Ning on a new iteration of the Wade 10 sneaker model spotlighting the Top Scholar colorway. The shoes are designed with inspiration from two mythical Chinese figures that are seen across the upper adorned by laser-printed application in the form of Shan-Shui art.
It is accented with details that resemble the look of patterned wood along with ACU's acupuncture logos and Dwayne Wade's signature motifs and stylized logo text for more branding accents. Touches of jade green are seen detailing the midfoot and the pull tab sections followed by burgundy and gold that accents the plays and contrast stitching details. It is rounded out by carbon accents at the lateral side and bottom.
