A Closer Look At The Design
These sneakers are a captivating fusion of traditional Chinese culture and modern style.

The design’s antique feel is enhanced by its distinctive glazed finish and ink bleeding. The final touches, including a white tongue made of tumbled leather, white laces, a white and blue sole unit, and gold patent leather swooshes with a white trim, all come together to create a harmonious look that is sure to pique your interest.

Each element of the shoe, from the gold Swooshes to the bleeding blue accents and the glazed finish, works together to produce the most remarkable aesthetic.
