Official Images // Nike DJ Clark Kent Nike Huarache Oregon Ducks Low “CNY” (2023)

From fireworks to the Lion Dance, China sure knows how to bring color and celebration to the annual Lunar New Year festivities. So it should come as no surprise that footwear brands look to work in many of these colorful elements when it comes to their annual Chinese New Year footwear collections. Already we’ve seen two Dunk Lows dedicated to this year’s celebratory animal, the rabbit, as well as a slew of multi-color, multi-Swooshed releases that serve as a secondary collection without any obvious callouts to the annual animal. That being said, this new Nike DJ Clark Kent Nike Huarache Oregon Ducks Low “CNY” is heavy-handed on the extras, but like other like-minded releases, this doesn’t directly call out the Chinese New Year, instead opting for oriental patterns and embroidery — and it does so in a traditional Chinese palette.

Rich in golden hues for good luck, the pair is centered around light tan leather uppers, with overlays of a traditional vachetta working across the toe, eyestay, and quarter panels. These are pinned with decorative floral threadwork, which is consistent with Nike’s overarching CNY collection, so too is the furry white Swoosh and heel overlays that serve as a not-so-subtle nod to the YEar of the Rabbit. There’s a handful of jade green and red accents for good measure, with marbled jelly outsoles, special graphic tongue tags and insoles, and thin rope laces rounding out the design.

Though a release date did not accompany the image set below, you should expect to see pairs of the Nike DJ Clark Kent Nike Huarache Oregon Ducks “CNY” arrive at select Swoosh stockists in time for Lunar New Year 2023.
