Nike has designed a new pair of “Hutong” Dunk Low Premium SB sneaks in the key of the beloved Beijing alleyway.
With auspicious red and gold highlights and a lion’s head door knocker adorning the tongue as well as a marbled gray-purplish hue to the suede, the shoes capture those traits familiar to anyone who has wandered around the disappearing hutongs, minus the unending dirt and dust, which should be easily fixed with one stroll in the rain.
Past describing what they look like I can’t really tell you much more as I’m neither a shoe enthusiast, skateboarder, nor a 14-year-old boy but for those wanting to get your feet in a pair, Sole Collector reports that they’ll be released exclusively at select Nike SB accounts throughout China later this year.
