Lunar New Year-Themed Sneakers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Air Jordan 36 Celebrates the Year of the Tiger

— June 23, 2022 — Lifestyle
The colorful rendition of the Air Jordan 36 that made its debut recently is one that drops in celebration of the Year of the Tiger. Although Lunar New Year celebrations are now behind us, the festivities continue with the latest silhouette ready for the court.

It has the original model and highlights the gradient upper that glistens as the focal point. It continues onto the side panels that are made with mesh to add breathability to the sneaker. It also updates the ankle collars, the thin mid-foot overlaying detail, and the fluid midsole molds of the sneaker. At the forefoot, section is the speckled laces that are based on a black background with red stitching and tiger emblems round on the shoe on the throat.
