FAQs

What does 'Won-Ang' refer to?

'Won-Ang' refers to Wong-Ang Ducks, a style of carved wooden ducks traditionally gifted to newlywed couples in Korean culture as a symbol of good fortune and marital bliss.

What makes this collaboration special?

This sneaker is a special collaboration between Nike and the South Korean boutique Kasina, celebrating Kasina's 25th Anniversary. It deeply incorporates Korean cultural elements and traditions into its design.

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

These are primarily lifestyle sneakers designed for casual wear and aesthetic appeal. While they feature the Air Max cushioning, they are not optimized for athletic performance.

What are the primary materials used?

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

When was this shoe released?

The Nike Air Max 1 Kasina Wong-Ang Grey was released in June 2022.

How should I clean the faux horsehair material?

Gently brush the faux horsehair with a soft brush or use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh cleaning agents to prevent damage.

Is this a unisex shoe?

Yes, the Kasina x Nike Air Max 1 SP 'Won-Ang - Grey' is designed as a unisex sneaker, available in a range of adult sizes.

Troubleshooting

Material scuffing or marking

Gently blot the affected area with a slightly damp, soft cloth. For stubborn marks on suede, use a dedicated suede eraser. Avoid excessive rubbing.

Color transfer from faux horsehair or leather

This is rare but possible with new materials. Ensure socks are not excessively dark or damp. If transfer occurs, clean gently with a specialized cleaner for the affected material.

Creasing on leather upper

Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and avoid over-stuffing the shoes when storing. Using shoe trees can help maintain shape.
