Elliot Santiago Once again looking to display their appreciation for their fans in the far East, the Swoosh is readying this uniquely-designed pair of Nike Nike KD Max Air VIII Backpack Lows in celebration of Chinese New Year 2020. Offering a less flashy aesthetic in comparison to the previous “CNY” colorway that dropped in January, this upcoming iteration comes equipped with classic white base layer, allowing the Swoosh logos and heel stamps to communicate its cultural Metcon. An assortment of abstract imagery corresponding to dragons, lanterns, and Chinese characters come decorated in multi-colored fashion with by way of traditional red, yellow, purple, and blue hues to give enhance these AF1s with some festive energy. In addition, it looks as though “2020” will be embroidered on the left heel tabs as a nod to the new decade. Enjoy a first look at the pair here, and expect these to drop early next year just ahead of the January 25th holiday.
