While the Chinese brands don’t get a ton of press Stateside, they are doing cool sh*t just like the big brands. This latest Li-Ning style, spotted on the feet of the brand’s star athlete Dwyane Wade, is evidence of that.
Knit sneakers may be the future — and they’re certainly what people seem to want now. While touring overseas and unveiling the Way of Wade 6, Dwyane Wade rocked this minimalistic and very interesting knit hightop.
While the shoe is somewhat similar to what we’ve seen from other brands, it also seems like Li-Ning is flexing with zones for ventilation, raised textures for aesthetics, and a new collar design. We don’t know what tooling the shoe sits atop or if it’s coming Stateside, but maybe our overseas readers can share some insight.
What do you think of this Li-Ning model? Let us know.

That looks cool. Maybe its a new version of the Samurai?
I think the name of the shoe is Lining A.I.P (abbreviation of the old Lining slogan, Anything is Possible), the price is a little more expensive than the Samurai.
Thank you!
These are called the Li-Ning A.I.P.
