Where To Buy Kasina x Nike Air Max 1 “Won-Ang”

In 2020, Korea’s premier footwear and streetwear hub Kasina teamed up with Nike and launched two offerings of the Nike Dunk Low. Two years later, the duo have announced a new project with Nike in hopes of recreating that same success with a Nike Air Max 1

The previous collaboration was inspired by the Seoul bus transit system and captured the attention of the Seoul natives. During the time, the unique and obscure design managed to win over individuals across the globe, which happened during the Dunk’s initial rise to the epicenter of the sneaker community.

The sneaker uses premium tumbled leather and suede on the sneaker with navy, maroon, orange, and cream making up the upper. Kasina branding is seen on the tongue tag as well as the dubrae, and the mini Swoosh on the lateral side features a flower. The same hues of the sneaker are seen on the Mandarin duck hangtag, most likely representing one of the two wedding ducks that are given as a wedding gift in Korea since Mandarin ducks typically choose a mate for life, so we can expect a second colorway as well. Lastly, a cream midsole and icy translucent outsole finish off the sneaker.

The Kasina x Nike Air Max 1 “Won-Ang” is set to drop first via Kasina on June 4th with SNKRS South Korea & SNKRS US dropping them on June 8th, no word yet about a stateside release date.
