After dropping a Chinese New Year edition of the Nike Air Flightposite Exposed in 2014, a laceless version, the Air Flightposite, resurfaces to welcome the Year of Pig.

A gradual tone of pink and purple that adorns the signature foamposite and the Swoosh contrasts with the black neoprene midfoot. The entire upper is detailed with a triangular-shaped pattern while the black outsole is sprinkled with gold. A celebratory hand graphic at the top of the zipper, which is a common gesture of blessing during the Chinese New Year, rounds off this iteration.

The Nike Air Flightposite will be launched in China on January 10. Stay tuned for more information about the release date in the States.
