The shoe is inspired by Wong-Ang Ducks, a traditional Korean gift for newlyweds symbolizing good fortune. The colors and materials are also chosen for their cultural significance in Korean tradition.

What materials are used in the Nike Air Max 1 Kasina 'Won-Ang Orange'?

The shoe features a premium mix of brown tumbled leather, dark green faux horsehair overlays, and brown and orange suede mudguards.

How do I clean the faux horsehair and suede parts?

Use a specialized suede brush to remove dust and restore texture. For stains, a dedicated suede cleaner is recommended. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.

Is this shoe suitable for athletic performance?

While it features Nike's Air Max cushioning for comfort, it is primarily a lifestyle and collectible sneaker, not designed for high-impact athletic activities.

What does the embroidery on the heel represent?

The small embroidery on the heel depicts a Wong-Ang Duck, referencing the Korean wedding custom that inspired the shoe's design.

How can I maintain the icy translucent outsole?

Clean the outsole with a damp cloth. For marks, a magic eraser can be used with caution. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the material.

What was the original release date and price?

Troubleshooting

Suede or faux horsehair appears matted or dirty

Gently brush the affected area with a suede brush to restore texture. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner according to product instructions.

Leather sections show scuffs

Light scuffs on leather can sometimes be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, a leather repair kit or professional cleaning may be necessary.

Icy outsole has yellowing or marks

Clean with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, try a magic eraser gently. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.

Color transfer from overlays

This is rare but possible with new footwear. Allow shoes to air out. If significant transfer occurs, contact customer support or a professional shoe cleaner.
