Nike is gearing up for the Chinese Zodiac celebration, and the Air Force 1 is taking center stage. Adding to the festive lineup is a Grade School (GS) version of the Air Force 1 “Year Of The Snake”, which brings unique scaly details and commemorative accents.
A Scaly Interior
This GS Air Force 1 keeps its design fresh with snake-inspired patterns lining the nylon interior. The tactile, army-jacket-like material adds a new layer of depth to the shoe, making it stand out from other celebratory models. Subtle serpentine touches also appear on the tongue label and mini Swoosh, creating a cohesive “Year of the Snake” theme.
Part of a Larger Celebration
This release is part of Nike’s broader lineup for the Chinese Zodiac calendar, joining earlier women’s and unisex Air Force 1 colorways. While those designs focused on external details, like suede heel cups and embossed panels, the GS version offers a fresh twist by emphasizing the interior pattern.
Release Details
The Nike Air Force 1 GS “Year Of The Snake” is expected to release in early 2025, likely in January or February, aligning with Lunar New Year celebrations. While pricing hasn’t been confirmed, the shoe will likely retail slightly above the usual GS Air Force 1 price of $90.
With its unique design and festive appeal, this Air Force 1 is a must-have for young sneaker fans celebrating the Lunar New Year.
