Except the Liu Xiang Olympic Dunk and Air Force More 180 Lux Yi Jianlian, this Swimming Trainer Dunk Low is also a part of the Asia Exclusive Olympic Gold series. We presented to you the rest of the Olympic pack already a couple of days ago, as they will be released in the US this weekend.
This Trainer Dunk Low comes in all white with gold accents and a clear toe box and side panels, perfect for the Swimming Team. Kix-Files offers them online now.
After the jump more pictures.


   
 
^Typical NT.

The amount of passive and *****y crap on here is crazy sometimes. Like, dude could have NOT taken the time to find the answer for OP and just left it at that, went along with his day. But instead he researches the OP's question and gives him the answer - but takes the time to call him names for asking NT instead of google.
 
Good lookin' out fellas.  Sent a PM to CWK.  I was simply posting out of curiosity and  wanted to hear what others thought of the shoe.  No biggie. 
 
Okay, I could have handled that better, but in all fariness, you didn't ask for opinions in the title.  So in an attempt to redeem myself, here goes:

The colorway (blue/gold) recalls swimming and olympic medals.   The clear upper components borrow from the ESPO Air Force II and could be an indirect reference to the "bubble" shell covering the natatorium in Beijing.  NIKE frequently releases special make-ups to promote the olympic games (Presto, Hyperdunk, SHOX BB4, etc...).  As far as my opinion, function and form both suffer on this shoe.  The FREE midsole is light and comfortable but the clear upper allows your socks to alter the appearance and will probably yellow eventually (that happened to the clear upper on my 2000 Australian Olympic TB Air Presto.)  The strap is a nice call back to the Bo Knows series but useless because nobody is competing or worrying about lateral forefoot stabililty with this shoe.
