The next sneaker from Nike’s 1World project is a collaboration with Clot.

The upper is made from red Clot Royale Deluxe Silk, and embroidered with trademark Clot graphics inspired by traditional Chinese prints. The silk red layer covers a brown leather layer also featuring the same Clot graphics. The shoe comes in a special “Chinese Candy Box” packaging set, and will release January 19th exclusively at Hong Kong’s Juice, and ACU.
