FAQs

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

The design is inspired by Wong-Ang Ducks, a traditional Korean wedding gift symbolizing good fortune for newlyweds. It incorporates colors and materials meant to bring prosperity in Korean culture.

What materials are used in the construction of this shoe?

The shoe features a premium teal tumbled leather upper, dark grey faux horsehair overlays, and light grey suede mudguards. The outsole is icy and semi-translucent.

Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?

These are primarily lifestyle sneakers designed for casual wear and collecting. While they offer Air Max cushioning for comfort, they are not optimized for intense athletic activities.

How do I clean the suede parts of the shoe?

Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and a suede eraser for stains. Avoid water, and if necessary, use a specialized suede cleaner, testing on a small area first.

What does 'Won-Ang' refer to?

Won-Ang refers to a style of carved wooden ducks traditionally gifted to newlywed couples in Korea as a symbol of marital harmony and good fortune.

When did this collaboration release?

The Nike Air Max 1 Kasina 'Won-Ang Grey' was released in June of 2022.

Are there other colorways or versions available?

This specific guide focuses on the 'Won-Ang Grey' colorway. Collaborations often have variations, but this model is a distinct release.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on suede or leather

Minor creasing is natural with wear. To minimize, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid bending the shoe excessively.

Dirt on translucent outsole

Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the surface.

Faux horsehair losing texture

Gently brush the material with a soft-bristled brush. Avoid applying excessive pressure or moisture.

Color transfer from teal leather

Ensure socks are colorfast. If color transfer occurs onto lighter materials, clean immediately with an appropriate cleaner for that material.

Care:
