Update March 1, 2023: Official imagery for the latest ‘Clotez’ is out, hinting a release date isn’t far away!

Edison Chen’s CLOT imprint have been mighty active with Nike and the Jordan brand of late. The Jordan Delta 2, Air Jordan 5 and Nike Dunk High have all been on the menu for the Hong Kong-based label, and the hot streak shows no signs of slowing down in 2023.

We now have our first look at a yellow and black, Bruce Lee-esque version of the CLOT x Nike ‘Clotez’, the 3-in-1 design initially released in its inaugural black and white colourway earlier this month. Revealed via social media, the colourway ostensibly takes its palette from the iconic, one-piece jumpsuit worn by Lee in the film, Game of Death.

Inspired by the ancient Yin-Yang philosophy, the debut Clotez silhouette was designed with the help of local Hong Kong artist Harry Wong, who conceived the Air Max design, ‘Kung Fu Soul’ – a project submitted for the Nike On Air contest in 2018. Exploring the idea of the tai chi diagram (also known as the Yin-Yang symbol’), the ‘Clotez’ can be worn as is or taken apart, converting into two totally separate shoes – including a sneaker and a slip-on.

Three colourways of the ‘Clotez’ are confirmed to release this year, so we’re still waiting on a third iteration to be revealed. No official release details of the yellow and black Cortez have been announced yet, but keep it locked to Sneaker Freaker for updates.
