Nike Air Jordan 4 Dragonite: A Tribute to Pokémon by Designer Andrew Chiou

A flying dragon introduced in the first generation of Pokémon, Dragonite You will have your sneakers in Nike Air Jordan. They are the work of designer Andrew Chiou and already have a sale date.

Starting Sunday, September 3, the Nike Air Jordan 4 Dragonite will be on sale. The downside is that, being personalized, Chiou will only sell sizes 10, as reported on his Instagram account.

Let’s remember Andrew Chiou: Born in Taiwan, he is the art director of the Jordan Brand at Nike. But beyond his position, he stands out for his fanaticism for anime, taking it to the shoes.

On his Instagram account we can see dozens of Nike and Air Jordan sports shoes with motifs from animated series such as Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon and Pokémon, among many others. It already has 228 thousand followers on the social network.

The announcement regarding the sale of the Pokémon Nike Air Jordan 4 Dragonite was made this week. Let’s see in detail how these shoes are.

The Nike Air Jordan 4 Dragonite created by Andrew Chiou uses a predominant orange color (the designer nicknames it “mango”), like the skin of the dragon from Pokémon.

But it also has turquoise details on the signature Air Jordan 4 plastic and on the back, playing with khaki and brown colors on the front and laces.

Michael Jordan’s traditional logo, the Jumpman, is found on the tongues.

Being custom shoes, they do not have a direct relationship with Pokémon, but are a tribute, so we do not see details alluding to the Japanese franchise, beyond the Dragonite colors.

For more information, we suggest you consult at Andrew Chiou’s Instagram account. It will also serve to see his other designs, all spectacular.
