The 10 Best Lunar New Year Sneakers

Lunar New Year is upon us (Happy New Year, to those who celebrate) which can only mean two things: fireworks and a slew of on-theme sneaker releases. Year after year every major sneaker brand puts together an entire collection of sneakers for the Holiday. Generally, the Lunar New Year sneakers are inspired by whichever Zodiac figure will be represented in the coming year. Sometimes, the sneakers are a celebration of Chinese culture and traditions. Some Lunar New Year releases have managed to cement their place as an all-time great. Some, less so. In order to take note of the Lunar New Year and its associated sneaker releases, we’re going to highlight our top 10 Lunar New Year sneakers. This list is in no particular order, by the way!
