adidas Originals and Edison Chen continue their collaborative journey with the release of the CLOT LNY Collection, celebrating the Year of the Snake. This limited-edition drop embodies a harmonious blend of tradition and bold modernity, marked by vibrant red and gold accents, symbolizing prosperity and festivity.
SNEAKERS
The collection’s centerpiece is the CLOT LNY Superstar sneaker, a tribute to the adaptability and fluidity of a snake. Its jacquard upper features a striking snakeskin pattern, complemented by silk print details—a first for this series. A symbolic coin detail, harkening back to Chen’s debut with adidas at Shanghai Fashion Week, ties the design to themes of wealth and cultural heritage.
Alongside the sneakers, the collection includes standout apparel pieces like the Combot Pant and Track Top. Both feature premium fits with repeating snakeskin-inspired prints and snake arm sleeve detailing. The intricate jacquard branding and luxurious silk accents further elevate the designs, reflecting a philosophy of self-expression and individuality.
To launch the collection, adidas and Chen hosted a dynamic cultural event in Mexico City, showcasing how Lunar New Year transcends borders. Guests explored the intersection of Chinese and Mexican traditions through art, fashion, and cuisine. The multi-sensory experience included activities led by local artists, an intimate dinner in the Chapultepec Forest, and a lively cocktail party, capturing the spirit of collaboration and cross-cultural celebration.
The CLOT LNY Collection invites wearers to embrace their unique journey with confidence. From its culturally significant motifs to its forward-thinking design, the collection is both a celebration of heritage and a step into modern self-expression.
The CLOT LNY apparel will be available on the CONFIRMED app starting January 10th, while the CLOT LNY Superstar drops globally on January 16th.
