Earlier this year Nike dressed its Air Max 95 in bold “Racer Pink,” “Royal Tint,” and black tiger stripes, paying homage to South Korea. Now the sportswear giant has turned its attention over to the Nike Air Presto to honor the Asian country.
The Nike Air Presto “South Korea” is dressed completely in a white tiger print, an animal that has been strongly associated with Korean people and Korean culture. The print is then offset by mismatching red and blue cage overlays and matching outsoles. Additional details include the gold Swooshes on the midsole, and the South Korean flag, also known as Taegeukgi, embellishing the heels. For a full head-to-toe look, the same print dresses South Korea’s 2020 away kit for its national football team.
A release date has yet to be announced, but unfortunately it looks like the Nike Air Presto “South Korea” will be a regional-exclusive. Time to hit up those friends living overseas.
