The [Adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adidas-lunar-new-year) 2019 Chinese New Year sneakers have been unveiled by the athletic brand as a footwear option that aim to celebrate the event in total style.

The sneakers come in two style options including the [classic Superstar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clot-superstar) and Yung 96, which have both been emblazoned with red and white colors to put a focus on happiness and luck for the new year. This naturally corresponds with Chinese culture, while the Yung 96 is accented by a pop of neon yellow to set them apart from other options when worn.

The Adidas 2019 Chinese New Year sneakers are finished with gold detailing along with a dragon head that has been embroidered onto the heel to further reinforce the traditional aesthetic of the footwear.
