2023 is freshly underway and ripe for celebration. January 22 marks the beginning of the Lunar New Year, which includes a 12-year cycle represented by the 12 animals on the Chinese Zodiac. For the first time since 2011, the Year of the Rabbit has returned. Joining the expanding collection is another Nike Dunk Low. The collection already features two Nike Dunk Lows in its midst, including a multicolored option and an Earthy, red-hued iteration on the horizon.
This upcoming Nike Dunk Low includes a mix of materials like a nubuck base and leather overlays. The colorway calls to mind the upcoming Air Jordan 1 Low “Year of the Rabbit,” albeit in reverse, whereas the AJ1 has brown overlays with a white base, and the Nike Dunk Low has a brown nubuck base with white leather overlays. The sneaker also features a wealth of details, like white chenille patches on the lateral side and tan chenille Swooshes on the medial side.
Other details include chenille patches on the tongue, including the character for rabbit in Chinese and a rabbit logo embroidered on the lateral heel. A white midsole and gum outsole complete the look. A release date for the Nike Dunk Low “Year of the Rabbit” has yet to be announced but look for it to release via Nike and select retailers.
