Edison Chen and his CLOT label have been a leading force in bringing his Hong Kong heritage to American streetwear, combining Chinese culture with a global love for sneakers and fashion. It only makes sense then that CLOT’s ongoing adidas partnership joins the stampede of Lunar New Year-themed sneakers set to drop in celebration of the upcoming Year of the Horse.

We first got a look at the two shoes that make up the CLOT x adidas Year of the Horse Collection over a month ago, but now, we’ve got an editorial shoot for not only the sneakers, but a matching clothing capsule and editorial shoot complete with horses and stables.
