Dragon Scale

Basketball shoes

Li-Ning (China) Sports Goods Co., Ltd.

In Chinese traditional culture, the pattern of dragon scale represents the honor and glory of royal nobles. Inspired by this, the shoes are designed as a special edition for Baron Davis’ China Tour in 2009 to honor his great achievements in his NBA career. The details are treated in a very Chinese way by utilizing typical Chinese hand-making techniques like paper-cut and embroidery, which gives the shoes a combined feel of sobriety and grace.
