Nike is taking inspiration form the traditional Qi Pao (Cheongsam) for a new pack of sneakers aimed at the Chinese market. For those not familiar with Qi Pao, it is a one-piece body-hugging Chinese dress for women created and made popular in the 1920’s Shanghai. These dresses generally feature a floral pattern and were originally made out of rich materials such as silk. Nike will be releasing a pack of three sneakers, a Blazer and two Terminator Low using similar colors, patterns and materials. While this pack was developed for the Chinese market, there may be a chance of them making it to the US otherwise, there’s always eBay. via Dunk.com.cn
