FAQs

What is the inspiration behind the Kasina x Nike Air Max 1 SP 'Won-Ang - Grey'?

The design is inspired by Wong-Ang Ducks, a traditional Korean gift for newlyweds symbolizing good fortune, and celebrates the 25th anniversary of the South Korean boutique Kasina.

What materials are used in this sneaker?

The sneaker features a premium tumbled leather upper, dark grey faux horsehair overlays, and light grey suede mudguards.

Is this shoe suitable for athletic performance?

No, this is a lifestyle sneaker designed for casual wear and aesthetic appeal. While it offers Air Max comfort, it is not intended for rigorous athletic activities.

How should I clean the faux horsehair material?

Gently brush with a soft-bristled brush. For tougher dirt, use a slightly damp cloth and dab carefully, avoiding excessive rubbing.

Will the translucent outsole discolor over time?

Translucent rubber can naturally yellow with exposure to light and air over time. Storing the shoes away from direct light can help slow this process.

What does 'Won-Ang' refer to?

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather or suede

Some creasing is natural with wear. To minimize, use shoe trees when not wearing and avoid excessive bending of the foot.

Discoloration of translucent outsole

The icy outsole may naturally yellow over time with exposure to light and air. This is a common characteristic of translucent rubber. Store away from direct light to slow this process.

Dirt on faux horsehair material

Gently brush with a soft-bristled brush. For tougher dirt, use a slightly damp cloth and dab carefully, avoiding excessive rubbing.

Suede becoming matted

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and texture of the suede.
