Jordan Brand is going all out for this year's observance of the Lunar New Year. In addition to the Year of the Snake-themed Air Jordan 1 Low and the Air Jordan 11 Low, the brand has also prepped a very limited Air Jordan 1 release.

Pictured here is the upcoming "Xuanwu" Air Jordan 1 High, and according to Sole Retriever, the style will be dropping exclusively in China. That's not even the worst news for fans who are looking to purchase a pair, as the tongue tag reveals that the shoe is limited to only 3,399 units.

This latest Air Jordan 1 gets its look from the Xuanwu deity in Chinese mythology, often depicted as a hybrid of a tortoise and a snake. The upper's overlay panels feature a premium reptile-inspired design as a nod to Xuanwu, while additional patterns appear on the Swoosh and heel counter.

At the time of writing, official release info for this "Xuanwu" Air Jordan 1 High has not yet been announced by Jordan Brand. Grab a closer look at the style below.
