Previously believed to be a CNY colorway, Nike has officially unveiled what is now being known as the Nike SB Dunk Low ?Street Hawker.?

The Nike SB Dunk Low Street Hawker, designed by Guangzhou artist Jason Deng, gives big props to the bonding effect food culture has in China. Above, a watercolor painting from Deng shows the design inspiration: six regional dishes from six Chinese cities, combined with a slew of other, subtly-incorporated nods to Chinese cuisine.

Here are 22 things you should know about the Street Hawker Dunk.

Left Shoe

1. The left shoe uses a lighter beige for three flour-based dishes.

2. The suede toebox mimics the color and texture of green bean soup (Douzhi) from Beijing.

3. Donut (Jiaoquan) patterns on the forefoot pair with the green bean soup.

4. Embossed suede on the lateral side shows shredded pita bread pieces for a traditional Xi’an dish: pita bread soaked in mutton soup.

5. That mutton soup is represented in water-color patterns across the lateral side.

6. The Swoosh is depicted in a wood-grain texture to represent chopsticks.

7. On the lateral heel, water-color fading looks like Shanghai plain noodles, also called Yangchun noodles.

8. An embroidered 10-cent copper coin appears on the lateral heel, hinting at Yangchun noodles.

9. The left insole resembles a blue sky, inspired by traditional Chinese slang implying that people treat food as their heaven.

10. The blue lining of the left midsole mimics the blue-and-white of fine porcelain bowls.

Right Shoe

11. The right shoe features hotter colors to represent different heats, from spicy to sweet.

12. The metallic color on the right toebox is pulled from Chengdu hotpots in which dishes are cooked.

13. Boiling chili-oil treatments bubble around the toebox.

14. Ostrich leather on the lateral side is inspired by the crispy roasted goose skin that?s famous in Guangzhou.

15. The silver Swoosh resembles the metal hook used to hang the roast goose.

16. The flame and Lychee wood used to roast the goose appears in a watercolor pattern around the eyelits.

17. Shaved ice and taro balls ? a common Taipei dessert ? can be found on the heel counter.

18. The insole paints the scene of a bench terrace, a landscaping method used to grow rice paddies.

19. The collar lining reflects the color of meat dishes.

20. The yellow outsole represents cooking oils.

Both Shoes

21. Heel tabs feature Chinese calligraphy for ?food? in black and white thread.

22. Four colors of laces are inspired by four essential seasonings in Chinese cuisine: green (shallots), yellow (ginger), white (garlic) and black (black pepper).

The shoe releases January 13 on SNKRS.

Nike has just unveiled Paul George’s 5th signature sneaker with the brand, the Nike PG 5.

The Nike PG 5 explores the idea that comfort is the first step to controlling pace on the basketball court. That?s why the full-length Nike Air Dot Weld Strobel cushioning of the PG 4 returns, now paired to a new lightweight, low-top profile. It?s all in service of silky-smooth movement across the floor, exemplified by the shoe?s namesake, Paul George.

Other features of the PG 5 support George?s two-way needs: The lacing system keeps the foot locked in and stable over the footbed, and the outsole features a multi-directional tread pattern to help provide stop-and-go traction during play.

Look for the Nike PG 5 to release in the black and white colorway on January 21st in North America.
