As the Trefoil meets tradition once more, CLOT and adidas Originals have come together to reframe what a Lunar New Year collection can be. With Edison Chen stepping into the frame as a visionary “Key Master” in an anime-styled campaign, this latest collaboration signals a bold new chapter where heritage is honoured, but never static.

Rooted in the energy of the Year of the Horse, the collection rides high on symbolism, merging Chinese cultural motifs with the precision of streetwear craftsmanship. The standout CLOT Superstar Dress Shoe leads the charge, reimagining the iconic silhouette through cowhide horse-print leather, golden lace tips, and refined tassel details. It’s a tribute to tradition with the all the sauce of today's streetwear style.

The wider collection continues this evolution. The Qi Flow silhouette channels the grace and discipline of kung fu, featuring frog-button closures, satin collars, and an espadrille-inspired sole that blends comfort with cultural homage. Apparel pieces like the Mandarin-collared Track Jacket and PrimaLoft-filled outerwear blur the line between martial arts discipline and modern tailoring.

This is a promise that Lunar New Year style doesn’t have to live in the past. With the global release set for January 31st, and a limited tea ceremony preview in New York City, CLOT and adidas Originals have officially opened the door to a new era. The key? Culture, craft, and unrestrained creativity.
